[OOC] AA: Gulf Coast Guardians - [ENDED]

[kreuzritter]

Hmmm... and now we have hit a small speed bump in this story as nobody has Investigation to Expertise (Streetwise).

Irony is, Juno had that very skill. whoops.

[kenseido]

I would like to get some player feedback. I know the investigation portion fo adventures tend to plod a bit, but it seems like there is more than usual.

Is it the story?
Is it the game in general?
Is it something I am doing or not doing?
Am I misreading it?

[mrdent12]

I think the slowness now is due to the investigative nature of the current scene with none of the PCs being investigators really.

We have some leads in what the Black Rose may be up to, but our only lead on the groups location is knocking down the door of the Nine Titans leaders and hoping they can point us to the Black Rose. We also have a possible lead on a missing item they might need, but none of us have streetwise or a good way to find where it might be robbed.

Kit could do the contacts thing again, but that feels a bit cheap to contact our way through the non fighting bits.

The module gives two ways to move to the next scene, and I described both of them in my last post.

Ysariel hasn't been online here or elsewhere in nearly 2 weeks. I know she is having RL issues, but I will be moving the game on without her.

Unless anyone has any objections, I will move on to the team confronting Cronus.

[mrdent12]

I'm good with that. I was working on a post for Kit last night, but got too tired for a coherent post

[Sakuro]

I have no objection to moving to the Cronus confrontation scene.

[Gilliam]

I'm happy to move on as well.

[kenseido]

If you have read the module...

Yes, I am straying from the path as the module is a bit too fluffy and ridiculously easy.

[Ysariel]

I am very sorry. I fell sick again for the last 2 weeks, and spent a lot of time sleeping and lying down, and I have not had the energy to do anything useful outside of work. I effectively don't get any sick leave (there is nobody to relieve me, my classes will have to be rescheduled and rescheduling is a huge pain and causes problems down the road).

I have been struggling with various infections for the better part of the last 4 months. The good news is I do seem to be slowly improving.

I still hope to continue this game since it is a rare opportunity and I will try to post more consistently in future or at least give warning of absence.

[kenseido]

If anyone else has a reasonable way of knowing about Liam, you are welcome to use it.

[kenseido]

Oleander is a woman despite my original post.

[Sakuro]

Is there a period when the boxes are clearly not being watched? It may be worth taking a peak inside them, if there is an opportunity to do so. Otherwise Sky Guard will not move on the shipment. He does not know what is in the boxes, and does not want to tip off the Black Rose Society. He will inform the others of the shipment either way.

[kenseido]

No, there are always multiple people around the boxes.

[Sakuro]

Then Sky Guard won't risk blowing the operation by going in solo.

In that case, the only thing that needs doing before we time skip is Kit talking to some cops. Is that right?
