QuoteQuestion or quibble. Don't you have to bid to have a rank? For instance, if you bid nothing isn't your rank Olympian (or Amber) instead of 4th?

Yeah, I goofed on that. I was just comparing your characters to each other. Once this last auction is complete I will make up a correct chart.

QuoteThere is still post-bid point buy and elevation of classes anyway.

The buy-up after the auction is a secret to the other players. So your character may be much more powerful than the chart shows. It's good to have a secret power level in case one of the other characters is commanded by Athena to kill the PCs.

Also once xp is handed out none of the players will know the others attribute ranks without guessing or challenging them to fight it out.

Do you expect to be awarding XPs soon? Or often?

edster · January 12, 2018, 10:39:52 AM

XP will depend on the pace of play but I expect to give the first award a couple months from now.

Headless · January 12, 2018, 03:36:27 PM

Auction ends in the morning. What next?

I might need to adjust my character concept once he is fully stated out. I did the questionnaire once but there are at least a couple questions I will answer differently now.

I like this two day rhythm.

I was thinking that after the auction ends tomorrow we then use the rest of the weekend to finish up character creation with powers and background and stuff then start play on Monday or Tuesday. How does that sound to you guys?

Fine enough, as we run a normal forum pbp we will have time to react and write even if I might have something to do that day (might have to go to hospital or just shopping), so once we're ready we can start any time.

Sure. I may have some questions about the rest of character creation over the weekend, but Tuesday should work.

Headless has the most points left to play around with, and I assume my character is now going to be an excellent commander for Troia.

edster · January 13, 2018, 07:46:55 PM

Yes, you and Hector in Troy vs. Achillies and the rest of the Greek army. Plus a few wildcards, I hope.

Can you post the ranks by points aswell please? For instance I think the prowess one would be 1st 16 2nd 15 3rd 3 no 4th.

If you did all those like the grid above that might really help anyone who wants to buy up. Either now or down the road. Also it would be good to have if any one joins later.

edster · January 13, 2018, 10:39:48 PM

Yup, Jorian reminded me that the points per level should be posted. I will send it later tonight.

Instead of opening up a new thread now that pre-game i wrapping up I thought we could continue to use this thread for any out of character discussions.

joriandrake · January 23, 2018, 07:51:25 AM

I suggest renaming or asking a moderator for it, the thread from Pre-Game to OOC thread
