Eusyl's Requiem

Guys, Not sure anybody's still checking this feed. Sorry I disappeared during the discussion about the end of the game and potential beginning of others. I got an eight-page commission in addition to my mid-life crisis webcomic so it's been a bit busy. Scott, great endnote for the game.  However, if you get re-charged, I still feel ultimately that our story isn't over. We were on the verge of moving into the next phase of our adventure. Tying off the vast fortune into some kind of foundation, leaving a small (but sizable) reserve for ourselves, we could head off into the frontier both the more central hubs and doing the exploration jumps we began.  Eusyl still has the central mystery of her life that she couldn't begin to pursue until she left Outer Reach. If this is it, then a great adventure cycle.  If we do this again, I'd consider doing random rolls for characters. Brings some variety to the stats. Maybe 5 rolls for the 4 stats.
Great to hear from you Eusyl.  It's been a while, and I hadn't seen you in Rod's game, so I was a little worried. I'll probably get the itch to run another game sooner or later.  StarFrontiers is still my favorite setting.  I just need to be better at keeping a lid on the outrageous, because I really don't know what to throw at the players once they reach megacorp status.  If it was a dungeon crawl, then there are always bigger dragons.  But in a realistic setting, once you become top dog, it becomes very corporate - and less exciting at least for me. Lately, I've been messing around with a new app called "Table Top Simulator".  You can find videos of it on YouTube.  It's kinda expensive, but it's a one-time price.  If it works well, then I'd be willing to buy the whole group an account.  It's still in beta now, and it's missing a lot of the functionality that would really make it shine.  Maybe by the time Rod's game ends...
Pan-Gal and the UPF band together and fake up some charges against the Neon Tygers. To "cover our penalties", we end up with about a million credits between us and our ship (not before we get the double compliment of engines), a modicum of weapons and no real destination. While we're "6's", we pretty much have to start over. No sidekicks, no friends and the infinite void in front of us. It would give us the time to track down the story arcs, not just the adventure. Though, we could likely do a lot of this via post.  I miss the Sci-Fi feel of gaming.
