I have a suggestion Adam. Why not have a mixed Star (i.e. a Nova)? If it came down to it, we could have a very... um... eclectic Star going here as some kind of experiment. RP is great and we understand it is the focus of the game. However, the backdrop story would be interesting to have such an unit.

2 Vehicles make a point, 5 Elementals make a point, 2 AeroSpace Fighters make a point, and of course a Mechwarrior would make a point. I'd be willing to take the hit and buy the necessary Rank background (the point cost makes my brain hurt :P) instead of getting myself a Bloodname if that would help.

Well my idea involves you guys being security for negotiations with a successor state/spheroid nation.

Gray Jaguar · « **Reply #32 on:** 21 June 2013, 10:49:07 »

Sounds practically Sea Diamond Fox Shark Warrior-Merchantish.

Gustav Kuriga · « **Reply #33 on:** 21 June 2013, 10:54:51 »

And I just happened to create a Clan Sea Fox character. :D

adamhowe · « **Reply #34 on:** 21 June 2013, 11:33:02 »

My campaign idea involves security/investigation type plots initially. So Elementals are ideal, Mechwarriors are a close second. It will start off around alliance type negotiations with a successor state.

What day or days of the week are good for playing with you?

guardiandashi · « **Reply #36 on:** 21 June 2013, 14:06:30 »

well depending on the method of communication...

if its a chat /im method pretty much any day works fine for me.
my current work schedule is fri- mon 9:30 am PST to 8:00 pm PST

if it is going to be a voice thing well that restricts my options a lot more
I am on yahoo messenger

adamhowe · « **Reply #37 on:** 21 June 2013, 14:07:56 »

It will be on Skype, and no voice, just text.

Gray Jaguar · « **Reply #38 on:** 21 June 2013, 14:59:38 »

I will definitely have concept in mind though it involves playing either an AeroSpace pilot or a MechWarrior. Since MechWarrior works the best for you, I'll start on that though did you want this to be a singular Clan operation or a combined Clan operation like some kind of Wolf's Dragoons style unit only with mixed Clans instead of just Wolves?

Everyone in the group should be the same clan. They will be part of a larger multi-clan task force but not a mixed clan star.

For me work is weird hours, so if you have a time I will try hard to make it

I'm in the same boat. If we set up a set day/time, I can request that time off every week. Otherwise I will make it when work doesn't schedule me/need me.

so are we looking at ~90% likelihood of clan wolf?

I am guessing ~5k xp baseline (atow)
any other guidelines?

Yes Clan Wolf, as for the starting XP pool I haven't decided on that just yet and I will put certain requirements on it.

Okay the character concept I have so far is as follows:

MechWarrior Nova Commander Ashley Sender. She is a younger Clansmen who was commissioned a Nova Commander straight out of her Trial of Position. Her hope is that she'll be able to find honorable challenges in the upcoming invasion/operations within the Inner Sphere to cut her teeth. Prefers heavier Mechs with a fondness specifically for Dire Wolves. She is a known sniper in an OmniMech while being skilled at hand to hand combat outside of a Mech enough that she was able to put down an Elemental who attempted to challenge her immediately upon arrival to the unit.

That's all of the concept I have written up so far.

If you're okay with being a star commander then I will email out my character creation guide and limits.

Did you need me to be of higher or lower rank? I figured we were going to be part of the same Star/Nova since I was hoping to play a MechWarrior in this mixed band if others end up playing Elementals.

I was planning to have everyone be part of a Mech Star, with a team of elementals supporting them. Under the direct command of the individual sent to negotiate.

Just so everyone knows, major announcements for my game will be emailed to you.

adamhowe · « **Reply #50 on:** 22 June 2013, 14:56:26 »

Character creation guide has been emailed. If everyone can get Skype running before next Saturday we can start then. Start time will be 4 PM eastern time.

Make a mechwarrior. Everyone should be a mechwarrior.

Gray Jaguar · « **Reply #53 on:** 22 June 2013, 17:24:33 »

Cool, Ashley is armed and operational. I just need to know what our standard issue gear is. For everyone else's benefit, she has ended up with a Timber Wolf D, has her Bloodname and is 19. Currently, a Warden camp and an Elite rated (using Total Warfare for comparison) pilot and gunner who specializes in Martial Arts outside of the Mech along with plenty of social and command abilities. Definitely a rather socially adept Clansmen which is why she was selected for this operation.

well I had thought about a aerospace pilot, but I can change it to MechWarrior ...

I have a couple I could use but I most likely will make a new char as I need the practice anyway

Also be sure to check your email before working on your character.

not sure kind of depends on what I can swing, although I do tend towards the bigger ones as I do better ... although I have made a few light things that are pretty evil

There's also more XP than the standard 5000. This was intended to produce more veteran/combat hardened warriors.
