Roll To Dodge / Re: Special People: Burn it down
« on: March 16, 2014, 08:41:30 pm »I couldn't come up with a better term for the cockpit entry windows. I mean you have to get out somehow, right? I'm imagining it as a fighter jet, may be inaccurate. Door didn't sound right, so I went with the next word that sounded right.So...you called the door a window.
You throw a piece of concrete at the drone but it sees it coming and fires a burst of its thrusters to get out of the way.As her consciousness fades away, Angel thinks <Not again...>
Before you can manage to teleport away, there's a flash of light from the drone and you feel like something stabbed you on your right thigh.
You scream in pain, grab your leg and fall down in pain but retain consciousness. You can feel that a chunk of it is missing. You can feel the blood and the molten flesh sliding through your fingers.
You hear the engines of a spaceplane behind you. And then there's the sound of an explosion from that very same place. You feel something hit you in the head, there's more pain, pain filling everything and then there's only darkness.
Um...don't die? Also wake up.

« on: March 16, 2014, 05:21:04 pm »That's a...odd...placement for the jet enginesI know, I know.
You do know they're supposed to be the first lifting stage right? As in, from Launchpad to 10km? (no idea why this auto-capitalizes Launchpad.)
They are (part of) the first stage. They're tacked on the main body, and assisted by the solid boosters. Because too much power is never enough.

Roll To Dodge / Re: Tribulations in Magic: Opposing forces
« on: March 16, 2014, 03:51:30 pm »1) The dwarf hasn't melted, and I doubt that bursts of flame are actually able to melt metal. Maybe make it easier to bend, but not much more.1. Phooey.
2) Derm rolled a 4 in the will roll, so I can't target the head or the torso and leave lifeless materials there, as he would have died. It would happen on really low rolls (I'm still debating if it is better to use a 1 or a 0 for a "you die becase you are incompetent as fuck". I'm leaning for a 0, though, and a 1 for a "you have been so cripped that you are pretty much useless now, but if people like you, you will survive")
2. However, it is hypothetically possible to happen, and it is worse.
Oh holy fuck why.((About damn time you got what's coming to you.))
((((What he said. Seriously, comb every turn and find one time which shows that he deserves it.Coming to me? So far all I've done is attempt to science and take potshots. People came to me looking for a fight.))
Although...overall, I suppose it could be "all that science and you survived" that you're getting coming to you.))

« on: March 16, 2014, 02:40:13 pm »He can notice that the dwarf has dropped his hammer to cover himself with his arms.Oh. Huh.
Quote
The Knight looks at him and sighs. Well, maybe he should use the golden hammer instead?Yup. Pretty much what I would have chosen.
Quote
The Dragon Knight says his word as he hits the dwarf, and a burst of fire appears in front of him. Being concentrated in hitting the dwarf, he didn't think about the fire, and thus got some burns across his entire body. He didn't care at all and continued with his strike.Worth a shot. Did the fire at least melt the dwarf a little?
Actually, you got the worst location for the transformation. Making your own hand into an axe can be somewhat nice. Making your foot, well, not so much.Could be his head. Or his torso.
Stuff.

« on: March 16, 2014, 10:10:19 am »And how many know about it?
How many will give two shits about the name?
Among humans, there are very very few who know about that kinda stuff, as most people who delve into magic usualy don't quite care about such things, and those who do care usualy have a problem finding those who already know to tell themIn what way does this change the fact that Elf said that all magical humans call it the Wall of Stars?

« on: March 16, 2014, 08:59:25 am »Mm. Guess it wouldn't make sense to take them off rails if they weren't affected by more than one gravity at a time.Because n-body physics is very expensive computationally.Seriously, though, having not-on-rails celestial bodies would be terrible. For one, they'd have to take out the highest time warp; for another, the Jool system is horribly unstable as it currently is (Bop and Tylo are both in unstable orbits that would launch them out of Jool's hill sphere in short order) and would therefore need a rework.Why would they need to take out the highest time warp?
Quote
1. True, it doesn't affect much.And wouldn't it make sense to put them in stable orbits regardless? (And what's a hill sphere? Was that a tyop or is it something I'd probably be interested to learn about?)1. It's fine as-is, really.
2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill_sphere
2. Thank you.
Whoo.It's not .24. It's a special patch numbered .23.10...It's in experimentals...
Guys, the average time between experimentals and a KSP release is 9 days.
It's almost here.
Is that mean or median?

Sure. Also, toss some rubble at the sphere thingy.

« on: March 16, 2014, 08:48:37 am »3) Unknown. It turns out that research into frying mages brains with carefully crafted spells (that also functionally require consent) is quite low for some reason.So much for getting an insight into the game mechanics.

« on: March 16, 2014, 08:46:37 am »The final GM decision is that it is called the Wall of Stars, by humans, specifically Earth-bound humans, of the magical persuasion.So...you're forcing all of our characters to call it that.
what kinda totem animal would make you better at economics?(Loan) Shark? Weasel? Sand dollar?
Wait, who was Jesus in this setting?I'd be willing to answer, but I don't think the Christian players would appreciate it.
If you're gonna make it, it can't hurt to cite it.*insert quote about religion being made up*Wait, who was Jesus in this setting?You make that shit up. I'm not getting into that.
Sorry, felt like it needed to be made.
