FTL: Limited Information (Federation Victory!)

[Varsoon]

Yeah, if we can set up that rule early of:
If there's intruders, let me fight ones we can handle
Suffocate ones that I cant (or drain air and force them towards medbay if possible for me to fight them there?)
and if a fire breaks out in Engines, I duck out to medbay and we drain air there?
We'd have to keep these two rooms without air for that to work, I think:



Really depends on how sealing up doors will work in this game, because it's fine and dandy to strategize around vacuuming out rooms and leading enemies in the actual game but in this one I'm curious how that'd go down.

This was a duplicate of post #50 — callforjudgement

[PvtUrist]

Prehaps Engi can start begin on Doors for jumps then switch to Shields if there's no threat of boarding

[the worst]

Great idea PvtUrist.

[callforjudgement]

Though, hm, that said, maybe I wouldn't need to hang out in Sensors because

with a Slug on our team, he could always communicate the info to me, which means I could always pinpoint and engage enemies on our ship, right?

The Slug can always talk to you, so if they tell me "I want to keep the Mantis updated about enemies on the ship", I'll interpret things as if they were doing that (unless they were unable to for some reason, e.g. being dead). Of course, if the Slug tells me "I want to lie to the Mantis about enemies on the ship", I'd follow that instruction instead.

[the worst]

Oh dear PU. You wouldn't lie to us would you?!

[PvtUrist]

tw illiterate

[Varsoon]

Well, I'm a Mantis, so I probably don't outright trust the SLUG but we're also in the Federation and I'm trying to make thing work and giving those gross-soft ideas of TRUST and FRIENDSHIP a go, mostly because I'm curious how far a FRIEND SHIP can even plow across the stars as such a thing sounds make-believe but if the damn slug betrays me, I'll know I'm right in my convictions, kekekeke

Iconeum hasn't picked up their role PM.

Is there anyone out there who wants to replace them? Does anyone have strong preferences about what to do if a replacement isn't found?

[the worst]

and what do you get if you rearrange FEDERATION?
FRIEND ATEO

[the worst]

Should we move BuJaber or Enter into his slot if he doesn't appear soon?

[Enter]

I can replace but if you make me replace you should give me a PT to submit actions in

[callforjudgement]

Enter replaces Iconeum

.

I've PMed you where to find the private topic.

[Enter]

Apparently I'm in the game now

[Enter]

I have played enough FTL to lose like three times, which is not much at all. That was a couple years ago, too.

[Enter]

Wait how do we designate in character and not in character talk? Should not in character talk be in italics? Also do I get a name or am I just known as that telepathic slimy alien ?

[callforjudgement]

Normally we name the characters after the players, so your name's "Enter" (unless you want it to be something else).

Actions are taken in your PT. Talk in here can be in character if you want it to be, but there's no requirement.

[Enter]

Wegga wegga as we say on my home planet. Huello everyone mya name is Enter (e'en thur) and I like money. **smacks lips** howya baout y'all folks? I cann take Logistics iffen thatsa what ya want. Iyya operated a nuclear reactor on my home playnett butt I cannya also pilott. I thinkya weee will make many coins and goooood friendsss

[Enter]

Oh I do believe people want me to pilot! Yessss please. I will take that position. That would be fine and dandy. Also, meyya asking how you were doing was a formality of course. I can read your minddddddddddds you know.

[callforjudgement]

Is everyone agreed on a plan, for who's in charge of what, then? If so, I can start posting the relevant information into people's PTs, but want to make sure that everyone's agreed first (at least in terms of where they personally are going).

AFAICT:
- Varsoon suggested being on Logistics in #35
- the worst suggested being on Technology in #41
- PvtUrist suggested being on Weaponry in #45
- Enter suggested being on Navigation in #68

Are those final assignments? (In order to keep the game moving, I'll take them as final unless someone objects fairly soon.)

[Enter]

[the worst]

Confirm. o7

[PvtUrist]

yep

[callforjudgement]

OK; I've now given everyone detailed information on the parts of the ship they're responsible for. Feel free to paraphrase anything you want to in this main topic; we're all working together, after all (or are we?), although note that you cannot use numbers in doing so. Any actions you want to take (e.g. where you want to be stationed on the ship, and how to configure the parts of the ship you're responsible for) should be taken in your Private Topic, although you can certainly talk through your actions here.

[Varsoon]

/confirm.

Now we shouldn't jump until we have everything squared away and figured out.
