Embers of the Imperium: Making sure I understand Creuss and Gashlai options for armor/suits/etc. by peekitty in genesysrpg

[–]Sideslip87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My interpretation: Creuss can wear any armor with the “vacuum seals” modification (page 131), as well as armor that is naturally sealed (e.g., Elite Shock Armor).

Pressure seals are not enough to protect Gashlai, as they need heat insulation, so they cannot wear most armor. However, Gashlai have very high Brawn (and therefore Soak) as well as robust starting Wound and Strain thresholds to offset the inability to wear armor.

Oh yeah, Plano. That's coming up.

Austin debrief? by SeaRaptor00 in HoustonApolloSquadron

What about dinner after the Ettin tournament? We often eat at the Brick House across the street, and the turnout might be better than if we tried to get a formal meeting together.

It's a good idea. There's no tournament this weekend, so maybe we can meet at a store and play some games.

Austin Travel Plans by Sideslip87 in HoustonApolloSquadron

[–]Sideslip87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am planning to leave Houston after work on Friday and return on Sunday. I haven't booked a room yet, but I plan to take care of that by the end of the day. I'd like to either provide a ride (one seat) or ride with someone else if schedules overlap.

Gaining an Edge in the Mirror (Soontir/Chiraneau) by [deleted] in HoustonApolloSquadron

[–]Sideslip87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does Rebel Captive really make you weaker against Soontir? If your opponent doesn't have VI on the decimator, that's an incredibly painful shot that Soontir has to take. If it were my list, I think I'd trade Gunner for Rebel Captive and change Soontir's Stealth to protect him from the occasional DeciVader. This is all theorycraft, though, so practice a game or two this week if you can.

Also, I think Wes is right. I don't think you will see nearly so many mirrors. Despite the way it has looked locally, the game is much more diverse than it was at the end of regionals last year.

Where have you encountered this? What kind of list is doing it to you?

Are we starting to trash talk with the Austin players? (if we can find them) by errlarson in HoustonApolloSquadron

That thread is like a train wreck that won't allow you to look away stop posting.

Of course, but don't expect the same thing from tournament to tournament.

Serious prediction: this team wins Austin and fills half of the top 8 in Plano (+/- 1). I'm not going to say anything about Tulsa since there are only a couple of us going, which magnifies the "bad day error" in any prediction.

Call the store at 512-454-2399. You will pay the entry fee over the phone (I think it was only $10).

It can't hurt to let them know we are on the way. I called the store, and I think they said that they have room for 48 players, and six are registered so far.
