Re: Chapter 4: Strange Pursuit

DT follows Doos’ lead. He turns to Louis and says: That’s right kind of you Mr Bouchard. I do have three conditions though. First, once we settle the mounts and lay out our things to dry, you put us to work doing something that needs doing on your ranch with the last minutes of light. I’d be happy t...

Re: Chapter 4: Strange Pursuit

DT looks to the sky and, considering Bouchard’s words, looks to his friends for a nod or words of assent that it might be wise to remain here for the night.

Accepting Mr Bouchard’s hospitality might help Andreas find and catch up to us.

Re: Acadie Day 3

I’ve already established that Ty was going off ship to snoop around (unsuccessfully). But his Electronics-2 should have helped the crew decipher how to use and time the equipment. After he fails at obtaining HUMINT, he’d help with the surveillance. If the equipment permits, he’d tune into the van, t...

Re: Chapter 4: Strange Pursuit

DT: Touching his hat’s brow: Howdy, sir. It’s a real pleasure to make your acquaintance. It is a fine evenin’. He slowly and non-threateningly dismounts and takes a couple steps closer. Don’t mean to disturb you, but we won’t be but a minute. My name’s DT Crockett, Medical Doctor. This is Judge Jona...

Re: Chapter 4: Strange Pursuit

As they ride, DT will break the ends of foliage and leave them dangling for an obvious sign to Andreas.

Re: Chapter 4: Strange Pursuit

DT proposes they ride to the closest ranch and ask for the location of Will Bland’s place. They can always truthfully tell them we carry a message from the county Sheriff…that’s why we’re in the neighborhood.

Re: MILLION CREDIT COMM JOB

Mick smiles at: I suggest we do everything in our power to let her keep on thinking of us that way. He is stunned that this little thing can burrow as fast as it did. Snowshoeing is a slow walk, but...really? When he sees the can of jerky out, he picks it up and looks inside. He holds it up and shak...

Re: Chapter 4: Strange Pursuit

DT waves back at Andrea’s. Understandable. He might be the smartest of the bunch. He’ll hand his telescope to Gidean and ask him to go to a rise or uo a tree to look for another Texas flag flying somewhere near here on the south side of the river. (Often the biggest trees are along a river or creek)...

Re: Starport Bar (OOC Chat Area)

I wouldn’t count Gorethirster/Ted out just yet. I’ve played in another long-term game with him. He’s a University Proff….meaning he’s quite busy when terms are in session. If previous history proves a good indication of future performance…he’ll pop in for a while with very entertaining play. Then he...

Re: Chapter 4: Strange Pursuit

Whew! We, as a group, have gotten really lucky then.

DT begins to think that there has to be a place near here where a horse can wade across with a rider if the criminals we're after cross routinely going to the "River Station".

Re: Chapter 4: Strange Pursuit

Just need to get Andreas across. DT throws him the rope across the deep part of the river.

I would think a horse struggling to swim would become panicky. Might be a wild ride hanging onto it’s tail…

Re: Chapter 4: Strange Pursuit

DT strips down to his shirt, skivvies and socks, stows all his gear in his saddlebags, ties his boots and medical backpack to the saddle and rides Ajax to the water. River crossings are never safe. I’m going to try crossing here. If ya aren’t confident I’d ride hard for the ford at the road then rid...

Ty: Oh ya! That shotgun microphone. We can listen to them out to about 1500 meters. Here, let me get that for you. Shotgun Microphone (8) Cr300. Acquires sounds from a specific point up to very long (500 meters) range and reproduces them for listening or recording. Weighs 1500 grams. Becky, can we u...

Re: Acadie Day 3

Ty will confer with the crew about filing a flight plan to Acadie late on Day 4 when we confirm Screwface is making good progress on the drive repairs for a Day 5 departure. That should give us a full day to conduct full ship trials and maybe a local test flight. He’d also like to schedule life supp...
