Also just to put this out there

I know it's been 14 years but I live in Oregon, at our family's house there are 12 shotguns, 14 rifles 2 semi-auto 3 lever action and two pump action the rest are bolt action rifles. 8 pistols half autoloaders half revolvers three compound bows 2 PVC longbows... and from the people living around us we are kind of average in the number of firearms we have.

So I guess it's understandable that we have a few firearms lol


Yeah, i grew up in cali and a few of my uncles had a number of firearms. One of them collected weaponry, he had a family katana my grandfather picked up during WWII.

I think the big thing about firearms 14 years after civilization fell is that in the beginning its unlikely most with firearms will exhibit the type of control needed to ensure ammunition exists years down the line. In all honesty, I'd anticipate an excess of ammunition spent.

Aside from those who miss because of fear or inexperience, I'd wager there's be a number of people on people usage as well. There will be those who will use their weapons to take what they want; And there will be those who will suddenly find themselves unchained by social inhibitions. None of those take in the number of rounds simply lost, either dropped or left behind in a rush.

What are the jobs for Billy and Alex? Scout? Trooper? It doesn't show them on the character list or in their cs sheets.

What is Trevor on this mission?

I'm trying to figure out what Scouts I have so I know who April and Darric and Rafe are working with.

Billy is a sharpshooter. Will be with Vicky covering approach.

Alex is a scout according to the first character post.

Trevor is a trooper, and the troopers will be staying back for this mission. However, I think Jain said April could take three troopers (I think she said three) to supplement her moves.

I will begin writing up the Arlington encounter and present the rough to my CoGMs in perhaps an hour and if it all goes well Post it up later tonight or at the very least tomorrow

All Scouts and Marksmen will be Under the Direct supervision of Jain as Chief Scout

Split into three groups

Jain will lead the Southern Approach, April will lead the Northern, Vicky and Billy will deploy ahead of the two Scouting parties and make an overwatch position. They will use an access road used to service the Wind farm and seek the best observation position they may find suitable overlooking the Earl Snell Park as it may being used as a harbor for their use, if the park is not being used as a Harbor then they will seek a position of their choice that gives them the best view of any active areas of the town.
April’s Scouts will proceed two hours later up the wind farm road and avoid any contact with local forces or individuals and if forced into an encounter engage the locals with minimum force and take custody of any individuals so encountered till the cease of the operation.

I understand we don’t have a large force of Scouts so April may levee any Troopers up to three who have the skills and disposition necessary to the mission parameters.

Maisy will Contain the reserve force at Jones Canyon and avoid any direct contact as possible and if forced use minimum force in their capture a Detention. If no signal is received by noon Maisy may consider herself in command and proceed under her own initiative

I thought it said somewhere that Alex was a scout specialist? What exactly is that? What does he specialize in? Tracking? lock picking or camouflage?@Lord Orgasmo

Trevor- Had to ask it says he is "Woodsmen but can slip into both a scout and/or trooper role."

Billy and Alex need a spot where it says Job on their Cs so it is more clear.@Dnafein

Okay so I get Alex, Rafe, Darric and April plus I'll take two random NPC Scouts.

Right, I had that open in another tab so I could read at will during this mission. I clarified my questions. I wanted to know who was included in "April's scouts" In case there were supposed to be certain people not listed in that as her scouts, such as Alex. I went down the CS list to see who all was a scout and found holes in profiles. That is why I pointed them out.

He's essentially an infiltrator and Trickster. He specializes in misdirection, sleight of hand, and disguise and stuff like that.

Yeah, I thought it was there. When I saw it wasn't I fixed it.

And from what I gathered Billy and Vickie are moving with April's scouts.

<Snipped quote by ReusableSword>

Actually, 2 of the 4 high quality rifles Lasthope has is with the expedition. Billy has one Vickie the other. They're the lee-enfield rifles. Lasthope doesn't have any of the more current sniper rifles.

At least that's the information Rumi provided in discussions about the marksmen. I may have misunderstood some, but the gist was the above.


Actually, Last hope has more modern sniper rifles but they also have limited ammunition and are more critical in the prepared firebases that protect the approaches of Lasthope

I feel I should add that the military units that fell to the Risen were numerous and one of the main pursuits of material reclamation patrols to collect such military gear, I can see stacks of the Helmets in the Lasthope Amory along with several tons of things such as boots, packs and so on. Guns are available shotguns and .22 cal being the bulk but think of the weapons loadout of a platoon engaged in active combat and that once the Risen engaged them how the initial combats would have gone against the troops till they figured out

"In the Head, not the chest
Headshots are the very best"


Then there are the militarized Police departments, Gun Collectors in your community and so on

Seems I need some work time editing the lists and explanation but that's what the beginning is like on any expedition, everything we are engaged with is new to every one of us
