Anyway, Bardock...you've got a lot of social skills, and are very good with lying and being persuasive. Languages in this would probably go with Intelligence or Charisma, both of which you have pretty high, so I'd think that'd be less of a problem than for most of us...

Also, keep in mind you have Leadership. Could be useful here. Also Intimidation.

Maybe see if you can find out about how Ogros treats his tribe, if you can. You can always claim that he's trying to claim leadership over ALL the tribes and that he'd be a terrible, oppressive leader.

And yeah, killing them might be fun, but save it for if there's no other choice...we can't really afford to piss off the Epireans too much.


Hmm, I agree, we should find out whether it would be easier to go with Orgros or against him. If he's just power hungry, we could maybe work with that, then again if he is one of those folks with morals and stuff then I would say an execution is in order.

Also try to find out how Epirean politics work. Are Tribal leaders picked by bloodline, or is it by test of the strongest one rules the tribe.

Stuff like that. Anything we can find out about their way of doing things will help us that much more.

That's a good point. I'll ask Firak.

"Firak: "How [do] Epirean politics work? Are Tribal leaders picked by bloodline, or is it by test of the strongest one rules the tribe?""


Incidentally, I'd like to pick a fight at some point, I have no idea how the Combat system works, and I'd like to get familiar with how well I can perform in a combat situation (so far it's just numbers to me).

We won't be using the game rules I am afraid; they still require offline testing.

I am wondering though, how did you guys choose before whether to engage an enemy or to run away? Was it obvious from the stats or is it always trial and error?

The only real way to find the stats of a foe is to engage them, so you hav to rely on judgment and info beforehand.

Generally, though, you are VERY powerful, especially your combat templates. Unless your opponent is also carrying a lightsabre, you need good reason to think they can outfight you.

Okay, so even with a named character it's usually safe to assume that we have a good shot one on one.

Certainly a good shot, yes. Of course, you've taken a very non-combat style character, so if we assume that Ogros is at least SOME threat, you wouldn't want to be the one facing him, just in case.

If I say that Ogros' template is the Primitive Warrior, the vets should be able to give you an assessment.

Basically, yes. Even named characters aren't going to stop us too easily, unless they have a lightsaber. Or said character happens to be Rogan.

Stupid Rogan...

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, since Heretical is also kinda non-combat.

Oh, Newjak brought a good question to the table, how are politics done on Epireus? Is it whoever is the strongest? You said Ogros became leader after killing the last, so maybe that would make sense.

It probably would, yes, though I am trying not to answer questions that have to be asked in-game until we get a full 'cast' as it were. So I'll see who else chips in.

Yeah, wouldn't be fair to play it alone (also probably not possible).

On an out-game note, I shall watch A New Hope now (my girlfriend has never seen it).

I have a question... Can someone say who is playing what exactly? I mean, now there are three stories in one thread and with RPG discussion and RPG playing through each other, it is not easy to follow all the time.

I have seen that Jedireaper is playing Jedi too, is there someone besides him and me that is playing Jedi too?

I think yourself and Jedireaper make up the Jedi team, Jovan.

As for Ogros, I say either try to convert more than half of the tribal leaders to your side. You need majority to secure a vote in your favor, but a majority does not mean everyone. Leave Ogros his few idiots who are unwilling to cooperate, so long as you have more than half.

Siding with Ogros is not an option. Showing him favor will cause the other Epireans to think that rebellion gains rewards. We want to show them that rebellion is idiotic, and Ogros is being hostile as it is. He won't want your support.

That was something that concerned Azarl, that more than half have sided with Ogros. But Azarl should be able to speak Epirean adequately. He has an Intellgience of 5, Languages at 1, and his broad Heretical bonus.

Azarl will speak Epirean with Firak to keep him comfortable and not against us. But Azarl is not a persuasive being, so that will be up to you for that Con.

"You say that more than half the tribal leaders are against us," Azarl says. "Is this because they are taken in by Ogros and his plans?"
