Five Parsecs From Home: The Pre-Battle Campaign Turn and meet the Gladiators!

This is the final post before I get stuck in! I'll quickly go over the pre-battle sequence of the campaign turn and introduce the crew of the Gladiator. I'll show the character stats at the end of this post so it doesn't get all bogged down.

Meet the Gladiators! Decidedly tech savvy and loyal but not well liked...They've got four enemies to start!

Not a fierce looking bunch but hey, that's randomization for ya!

Below is the pre-battle Campaign Turn:

1. Determine if we travel: We're just starting out so won't be traveling any place. We do have a bunch of enemies though so we'll probably get jumped.

2. Pay Upkeep: Paid in full with the starting cash.

3. Assign/resolve crew jobs:

I assign Jibril and Tereg to trade hoping to get some sort of ranged weapon for Jibril. I receive a worthless trinket and some scrap metal worth 1 credit. Maybe I can buy a pistol!

I assign Herb to explore. He chats with someone nice but nothing comes of it.

I assign Kat and Hattie to the range for some training. Each of them gain +1 exp.

4. Assign equipment: Here is what is in my pool of equipment:

Credits: 7

Low-Tech Weapons: Shotgun and x2 Old Fashioned Blades.

High-Tech Weapons: Cling Fire Pistol, Suppression Maul x2, Glare Sword, Blast Pistol, and a Hand Flamer.

Gear: Frag Vest, Assault Attachment (I assume this is the "assault blade") and a Purifier.

Gadgets: Battle Visor

5. Resolve any rumors: None.

6. Play out a table-top battle: I was tracked down by Katsuda's enemy, a press gang.

To be continued...hopefully tomorrow or Friday with a report to follow on Saturday/Sunday.Thanks for reading!
