~snip~

You only need to put ACTx3 on actions you want the GM to process.  Taking a loan from other players isn't something Draig needs to know about, specifically; even then, you'd want to make sure you include that last "T" so he can find your action when he looks through the thread.

You may also want to get some ranged weapon, considering your Hunter has some pretty good ranged stats.  May be a better use of your money than Weighted Gauntlets, tbh.

That being said, I do appreciate you're paying NOCOF twice, it's very kind of you :)

@Roboson

Loan Terms:
The Order of Moonlight Redeemers shall loan an amount of 1.5 sovereigns to Roboson, pending agreement of both parties. The terms of this loan are as follows:
Each turn following issuance (starting next turn), the loan shall accrue 10% in interest. This interest is not compounding, and shall be based off the current principle owed. Any payments shall go to interest first, before reducing principle. Due to the nature of expeditions, no payment is due until the debtor has had their forces return from the first expedition, though interest shall continue to accrue.

Non-liquid assets are acceptable as payment, and will be valued at the market price. In case of default, debtor's assets  up to current loan amount shall be put into service of the Order of Moonlight Redeemers, and the debtor shall receive a 30% cut of profits generated by their use or sale, rounded down. The debt shall be considered paid at this time, and the debtor can purchase back indentured assets for market market value.

Loan interest is not to exceed 40% of expidition earnings.

(Minor) Rule Clarification:  When in Melee, Hunters can and will attack using both their Melee weapon and their Ranged weapon (if they have a 0-range bracket for the ranged weapon), they do not have to choose to use one or the other.

Turn 2

@MoonlightRedeemers: sends Zeal Under Moonlight on an Expedition to Darremont's Bell, as an ally to the NOCOF group.

@Roboson: successfully bids ₹1.16 for a wooden hammer and a brace of throwing daggers. In addition, they also win candidate A5290-8, who they reintroduce to the world as Big Waltz.

@OALM: sends Fylakas alone on an Expedition to Darremont's Bell.

@NOCOF:  sends Ebony Moonblade Ravensblight and the mercenary Cancer Sidereo on an Expedition to Darremont's Bell.



Darremont's Bell

The slumbering near-death of Darremont's Bell is broken by the staccato fire of Zeal Under Moonlight's precision carbine and the deeper booms of Fylakas' shotguns. While neither expedition has penetrated far into the outskirts, the flutter of tenebrous pigeon wings returning to the HQs of NOCOF and OALM respectively indicate that there are at least some survivors on both expeditions.

While the details of said letters are private to the expedition, leaks and rumors detail battle against roving bands of Rotten - those weakest few infected by moonlight, desiring nothing more than to survive. Their curse granted their wish, in a twisted manner.  Its energy keeps them at the very edge of death, angry and in pain, driven utterly mad by the ravages of disease and their curse's more insidious mental effects. Human and animal both fill in the ranks of the rotten, the former are at their most dangerous when they retain a few memories of their life, while the latter can be devastating when the scale and strength of beast is stripped of an animal's sense of fear.

While only those on the expedition have the details on the creatures they encountered, it seems clear that Darremont's Bell has a considerable infestation of the Rotten.

The Town itself has... changed. The outlying farmsteads have been burned to the ground or torn apart by the infected, but the town itself has been strangely well preserved against the purifying flame that was brought against the Lunar infection in the days when the Empire was still cohesive enough to fight. Lunacite, a crystal that grows under the light of the corrupted moon in places where blood has been spilled, now glitters out of every darkened corner like a hundred scattered will-o-the-wisps. Useful as a thaumaturgic reagent and as a source of insight into the Curse, its value is offset by how the streets it infests seem to twist and whisper. Maps of Darremont's Bell now seem worthless, as the once well-planned cobbled streets seem to no longer lead where logic and the rules of science would dictate.

Minor Clarification: Princes, Dukes, and Sovereigns gained as loot can be immediately added to your money pool once the Hunters return. All other loot must be sold at the store publically.

Quote from: Hunter Rental
Master Carcarias of Ordo Mercenariorum and Johannes "Hank" Strauss of Honest Hank's Hunter Hideout (henceforth referred to as the Noble Lender) agree to provide The Noble Order of Crab, Owl and Fox (henceforth referred as the Noble Client) with the services of

  • Hunter B002 (A.K.A. Cancer Sidereo)

equipped with

  • (1) Hunter Shotgun
  • (1) Serrated Axe

for the length of

  • (1) Expedition.

The Hunter(s) will follow all directions and commands of the Noble Client during the Expedition. All Expenses are to be paid by Noble Client. In exchange, the Noble Client shall pay to the Noble Lender a fee of ₹0.30 the first turn of the Expedition and ₹0.80 for each subsequent turn, up to a cap of 33% of the Noble Client's share of the salvaged goods and items of value recovered during the Expedition.  The Noble Client may pay the Noble Lender their share of the salvaged goods and items with any combination of Sovereigns and loot gained during this Expedition, provided the payment is equal to or greater than the amount owed.  Loss of a rented item shall incur a fee equal to its value from the Noble Client.

It is understood that Expeditions carry a risk. However, death of the Hunter resulting from reckless endangerment, defined by actions similar in kind to pushing forward despite crippling wounds/lack of supplies, negligence, or blatantly suicidal tactics, shall incur a fee of ₹3.00 from the Noble Client.

In consideration of the cyclical nature of Expeditions, it is agreed that rental payments can be suspended till the return of the Expedition or up to 4 turns after the signing of this agreement, whichever comes first.

AMENDMENT 1a:
The Noble Client is obligated to provide the Noble Lender with the full, unaltered report of the Expedition involving the Hunter listed above.   This report is to be provided promptly, at the Noble Client's earliest convenience.  Additionally, the Noble Lender agrees to maintain this report with confidentiality, and may not distribute, disclose, or allude to the contents to third parties without the express written approval of the Noble Client.  Failure by either party in this regard shall incur an immediate fee of ₹5.00 to the injured party.
