California after the dawn.....

I'm thinking of posting another picture where nukes are placed

[Rupert Willies]

I don't get this..
Unless this is the real map, I think you should be careful posting it; some people (me) might get confused.

It just shows the distance between us and probably more important between us and NDP. DeCorba and TPong are the ones in real vicinity of the hated NDP and I'd guess NDP influences would be high here. Bakersfield/Sanches are in a way protected by a mountain range between him and the NDP..

You on the other hand have probably got the best base for re-populating since you are so far from any major nukeblasts. Can't say I have that experience in LA.

I completely misunderstood this hahaha I thought this was a bout three "new clear" war map; the results of the last rain of nuclear warheads.. Thankfully I was mistaken. I guess the real map is even worse for some of you guys...

well - it actually shows the various PCs bases compared to the NDP HQ in Atascadero .Not marking any other branches of the NDP .

As for nuclear strikes I think the markers quite accurately show were warheads/dirty bombs detonated except for Eureka as far as I recall it was attacked conventionally but not by nukes.

Other strikes are possible but unconfirmed as pr gametime actual.

Please re rread this thread -

it contains info on the general situation ,location of known nuke impacts ,etc etc

ALSO : re reading the updates on your own characters threads is a wise choice ( they have info on everything going on with your character and his base area- not many excuses about not understanding the situation on the ground that in hindsight made your choices suicidal and daft are acceptable after reading up on these posts.)

A few might be though .

DAMAGE RULES - more deadly,more realistic and nasty- recommended reading before the next session .

here is the homework :

http://thebigbookofwar.50megs.com/DO...GE%20RULES.doc

dont want to read it all ? well it says that if you get hit there is a BIG chance of serious trouble :

1. critical hits .A hit from a 1D12 pistol and no body armour = 10% chance of critical hit .A hit from a 4D12 = 40% chance etc .
Critical hits may lead to death or PC ,permanent disability,loss of scores and skills etc

2. Complications : when wounded (90% of all wound types) GM rolls a D10 for EVERY wound to check for complications .These are infections,sepsis,fragments in the wound etc .All are bad and may result in death ,permanent disability,loss of scores and skills etc etc

3. MEDICAL TREATMENT
First aid and the access to medical tratment are more important .many wounds need surgery to be set straight or else death,permanent disability ,loss of scores and skills etc may result .

in short -getting a hit -ANY hit - is potentially very nasty.

These rules have been sent out for hearings a lot of times by now , so all of you have been informed.Please be informed .

So there you are !

Hope you will enjoy the next sessions - I have taken your suggestions on realism ,death rates of PCs and the structure of the FtF session in regards to time spent on endless bickering and discussions vs time spent actually playing out a scenario seriously and changed it up a bit .

It is harder game -but I think it will be more rewarding too.

I´m sure of it.

as stated in earlier posts

reread info in this thread and th ethread concerning your character and whatever else you like .

Sir, yes Sir! But if by my character thread you mean "the SanSimeon situation", then there is little there. However, I should think I have the information i need to get a good grasp of the scenario and the increased danger of flying metal pieces. The situation in California, or the world for that matter, is deplorable, abject, terrifying, but oddly, that makes me optimistic! Funny that.

just admit it you are a fatalist like the rest of us.
