They ate the cookies already.

You'll likely have to squeeze Clooney to get any back. Gross!

Ok Question

Olan in the post one of the Troopers in the room said something about Rangers not having existed in ten years, is that due to the time zone of the game as Ranger units still do exist or at least they did when I was in service.
They smaller by far they the used to be but I believe are still active.

whoops!

Tann, moved your post to the right thread (you had it in Guiding Light Q&A).

Well, since you guys ARE rangers, I'd say they exist in the game's timeframe. Last time you were there (less than a day ago) Fort Benning was alive and well.

Not promising a post or anything...

but the DM hasn't answered my question: Did Charlie (and therefore the Looey) have access to the crew roster for the ARF in the dossier she had? If she can feed some names to the Looey, that might help...

whooops!

sorry I missed that, Vanny. Yes, Charlie has access to the roster. Also, see my earlier post - there was a printed duty roster in one of the bunkrooms, plus a greaseboard with a shift rotation written there.

Speaking slowly and clearly (grins)

What are the names? You state that we characters have the duty roster, but the players don"t have the info.

Should I make them up? you know I'll get the ranks wrong!!

INquiring mind wants to know

Inga is trying to make sense of what the opposing forces yelled back to us that there were no Rangers left. Question does Inga know of a period when the Rangers were disbanded and perhaps revived or is this something that had never happened in Ranger history she knows of.

Wager anyone?

Thus smacks of alternate reality. Our military history does not have a time period where one of the most valuable resources in the Army was disbanded, though Olan may choose otherwise in his history. Monty isn't going to go that far Sci-fi Geek yet though. I still feel it is a mighty leap for a clear thinking U.S. Ranger to immediately say, "Hey. If these guys think that the Rangers were disbanded, this is either a time warp we're caught up in, or an alternate reality." No. His first thought would be that these poor souls are either under the influence of a psychoschematic drug, under lot of stress and prone to hallucinations, or mentally unstable.

The metagamer in me agrees

Alt reality seems to me. Though, really, maybe it is as simple as them being stoned.

What do you think about asking them for "today's date"?

But my charrie IS a gamer

...but she may not express such oponions out loud...she's considered loony enough as it is

Post traumatic stress combined with the lack of sunlight could be very disorienting...who knows how long the two soldiers THINK they've been abandoned, feeding each others' delusions?

I'll see if somebody snoozes long enough for a game post.

Out of touch

Whoa, power goes out here at home and I'm shot, could you atleast tell me where I was hit. That'll determine my reaction in a way.

answers to OOCs

1) Is there anything of interest in this room? i.e. Fire extinguishers, lighting, tables, chairs, bookcases, etc.

When you say "this room", do you mean 15?

Room 15 is a Y-shaped intersection. The typical fluorescent lighting runs alon gthe ceilings. No other objects of interest - cold, impersonal, metal walls. As descibed before, there are quite a few bullet holes int he walls, and it stinks of dead flesh.

It appears that two bodies were dragged into the observatory from here; bloody boot and foot prints lead in all three directions.


Room 16 is the observatory. See the game thread for a description.



2) How does the door open to the next area? (the area between 15 and 19) Is it currently open?

There is a door that seals this access hall off from the main garage building. Please see the map graphic for the placement of the door.

A short hallway (no number on the map) connects room 15 (Y intersection) with room 19 (garage), and one more door sits at the end.

Unless otherwise specified, all doors in ARF36 close automatically (spring-loaded arms). Due to that fact, the door you asked about is closed; presumably, the one on the garage wall is, as well.

The doors open with...um... door handles?



Vesper: unless I speficy something of yours is damaged, assume combat damage is abstract, ala D&D.
