I set up my first set of equipment in my character sheet. I'll get a post when I get a chance to. Currently I'm spending a couple days with my girlfriend, so pretty busy.
Were marksman rifles/sniper rifles ruled out for the catalogue? And we won't be worrying about buying food/medicine?
@Ascendant
Hey I just noticed the roughnecks are pretty close to my camp. Would they mind if Minister Starr comes over there once a week and preaches to good work of Cosmology?
If they want to get shot, sure.
Enterprise Name: Roughnecks
Leader Name: Ulysses Roosevelt
Enterprise Bio: The Roughnecks are formed entirely of an old group of infantryman who were in the same squad together during the recent military coup. Soon after the coup, they were discharged and found themselves adrift in civilian life. But under the leadership of Ulysses, they decided to pool their funds and purchase tickets and equipment to travel to Ember, seeking adventure, glory, and adrenaline the likes of which Earth and Mars could not provide.
Starting Crew: 2
Start-up Capital: 1,560
Starting Location:
West of the Meridian, southern hemisphere, close to the equator for less intensive take-off and landing (despite how little that probably matters in the age of interstellar transport), on the northern side of the "Great Lakes" system, as Ulysses personally refers to that set of bodies of water. The "Great Lakes" are probably far, far larger than the ones of Earth, of course.
Initial Inventory:
Starting Credits: 1560
1x Magnetic Resonator - Low Sensitivity: 450
1x Field Tent: 10
2x Tickets: 500
1x UTV: 100
2x Pneumatic Jackhammer: 100
1x Solar Recharge Station: 250
1x Assault Rifle: 120
1x Semi-automatic Rifle: 30
End Credits: 0

Starting Crew: 2
- Ulysses Roosevelt: A hardened, charismatic ethnically Irish man who believes heavily in old world views of freedom, entrepreneurship, and doing whatever is necessary to get ahead in life. He isn't above putting down an enemy, and on the lawless world of Ember, that may be happening quite often.
- 'Black Jack': Ethnically South African despite having been raised in the geographic area of the United States, Black Jack took on the name during combat with Ulysses, finding it to be both endearing and intimidating. Jack is not known for speaking much, and tends to just do his work and stick by Ulysses' side.

1. Nation Name: The Unified Great Bands of Vivia
2. Head of State: Grand Chief Julian Pohwati, 52
3. Political Alignment during the Most Atrocious War: Pact Nation
4. Culture: Vivia is a land of a multitude of peoples and immigrants, whose roots begin centuries ago as a colony. Despite having first essentially purged most of the rebellious natives combined with the spread of smallpox, these natives were in fact integrated deeply into society in what became an overall rejection of those across the ocean to the East. More immigrants flooded into the individual colonies of Vivia, seeking wealth, prosperity, enlightenment, or reprieve from oppression. Blood eventually mixed with blood, ethnic groups with ethnic groups, resulting in the hodgepodge of peoples that is known as a "Vivian."
Of course, there are always those that are opposed to racial mixing, but the primary population is distinctly Vivian in culture, though there are of course different geographical flavors of Vivian. Easterners are often seen as enterprising, hard-working folk accustomed to factory labor and inventions, while Westerners are perhaps the artists of the nation, devising new songs, dances, and all other artwork. Midwestern and Southerners are renowned for their ability to grow crops and jury-rig solutions to problems.
Eventually though, Vivia decided to unify and break away from its mother country, deciding to adopt a moniker more befitting of the native blood that runs through it.
(In OOC terms, Vivia is essentially a blend of many Native American cultures with North European culture as well as some southern European culture, modeled on the United States of our world. Its government too should essentially be a Federal Republic.)

You still haven't picked a Political Alignment in that app, Zell.
You've got unnecessary information that threw me off.

Once we get close to starting, I will fill in the details for inventory for the Roughnecks. Little as it is. :'(
