| 01:53 | <~Noah> | Oh sweet! You have the initiative then? |
| 01:53 | <~Noah> | or is someone being silly? |
| 01:54 | < FerrelFerret> | Mitten just attacked Locust Alpha |
| 01:55 | < FerrelFerret> | He's rolling awful, so I'm safe. ;) |

| 02:03 | <~Noah> | wb |
| 02:03 | < FerrelFerret> | Sorry, something goofy happened. |
| 02:03 | <~Noah> | I got distracted by quaternions, was on my way to look at the game |
| 02:04 | < FerrelFerret> | Forged has to post mitten's rolls first. |
| 02:07 | <~Noah> | I see |
| 02:08 | <~Noah> | I thought about investigating openRPG again and see if it would work for this kind of game |
| 02:08 | < FerrelFerret> | That, or maptools |
| 02:08 | <~Noah> | Yea, I used that for a while too, it was pretty good as well |
| 02:09 | < FerrelFerret> | That's what I plan on using. |
| 02:09 | < FerrelFerret> | Building a battle map. |
| 02:09 | < FerrelFerret> | Thinking about reopening a Vent server too |

| 03:07 | < Noah> | Three new pictures of the crawls with the modifcations from my thread |
| 03:09 | < Noah> | crawler* |
| 03:44 | < FerrelFerret> | Looks good. |
| 03:47 | < Noah> | Fun stuff in your game, excited to see how it turns out |
| 04:00 | < FerrelFerret> | I am too. |
| 04:01 | < FerrelFerret> | I just wish forged would hurry and post mitten's rolls. |
| 04:01 | < FerrelFerret> | So I can go. :) |
| 04:07 | < Noah> | lol |

| 04:44 | < Noah> | Damnit, where's Ced |
| 04:44 | < Noah> | using split range, I'm trying to remember what the most committed attack you can have is |
| 04:46 | < Noah> | 4d6+4d8? |
| 04:46 | < Noah> | Split-range hth-df, 2 df, and split range df-art, and alphastrike 3x1sr? |
| 04:48 | < Noah> | Then I need to know what the worse damage you can take is... Spot 6+8? |
| 04:48 | < Noah> | Against def 0, would be 14 dice |
| 04:52 | < Noah> | I suppose that's why we have a log bot |
| 04:52 | < Noah> | Well, logging user |
| 04:53 | < Noah> | https://www.starforge.co.uk/irclogs/mf0/mf0.20120509.log.html#m2221-0 |
| 04:53 | < Noah> | There we are |
| 05:45 | < ferrelferret> | Sorry, I was away |
| 05:46 | < ferrelferret> | were you using all those weapon systems on one frame? |
| 05:55 | < Noah> | According to randolf that's wrong though, since it would based on the fact you can't have more then 2.0 systems in a given rang |
| 05:56 | < Noah> | So you can have 0.5, 1, 1.5. and 2 system, so you could do 2d6+4d8@2systems with 3 rockets, or 3d6+3d8 at 1.5 systems and 3 rockets |
| 05:56 | < Noah> | http://www.mobileframehangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=759&p=6811#p6811 |
| 05:57 | < Noah> | I was looking for the minimum dice pool necessary if you used something other than dice for tracking numbers |
| 05:58 | < Noah> | It's 2d6W, 2d6B, 2d6Y, 2d6+1d8G, and 14d6+4d8R. |
| 06:20 | < ferrelferret> | yeah, I was going to say that was too many weapons |
| 06:22 | < Noah> | Yea, but since you still have 3d6 as a possibilty, you still have more red d6 than anything else, so just using that to add 11 red dice, instead of say, 12 white dice, or 14 black dice, for damage |
| 06:28 | < ferrelferret> | yup. this game is about blowing things up. :) |
| 06:29 | < Noah> | I have to find my dice as some point |
| 06:29 | < ferrelferret> | I always scratch my head when people post rules or gripe about defence being low |
| 06:29 | < Noah> | I have a lot of red and yellow, and I'm sure I have enough white (2, seriously), but blue and green might be worrysome |
| 06:29 | < ferrelferret> | defense |
| 06:30 | < Noah> | Defence being low is augmented by cover, either from other frames or actual terrain |
| 06:30 | < ferrelferret> | I went and bot dice the moment I got a copy of mechaton rules |
| 06:30 | < ferrelferret> | XD |
| 06:30 | < Noah> | there's no anti-cover for attacks |
| 06:30 | < Noah> | yet |
| 06:30 | < ferrelferret> | bought |
| 06:31 | < Noah> | now, that is an idea though, a special station that boosts attack, either range or dice, when you're in hth range of it |
| 06:32 | < Noah> | I can imagine a king of the hill game where the last unit standing is the winner, lol |
| 06:32 | < ferrelferret> | Could be. :) Though, I still need to play a few vanilla games before I start adding sprinkles |
| 06:33 | < Noah> | Balls to sprinkles, vanilla ice cream with poprocks |
| 06:33 | < Noah> | Damnit, now I want ice cream and poprocks |
| 06:33 | < ferrelferret> | LOL |
| 06:33 | < ferrelferret> | well, brb |
| 06:33 | < Noah> | you're getting ice cream, aren't you?.... |
| 06:40 | < ferrelferret> | no |
| 06:41 | < ferrelferret> | just stepped outside and got some water |
| 06:41 | < ferrelferret> | but I thought about it |
| 06:41 | < ferrelferret> | trying to lose weight |
| 06:41 | < ferrelferret> | :) |
| 06:46 | < Noah> | So, I was thinking about using those lego dice, and using plates for the numbers |
| 06:47 | < Noah> | But there is only 4 studs, so I designed a system that uses one stud as a dead bit, for alignment, and uses the other studs via binary |
| 06:48 | < Noah> | You can technically go to 0-7 with three bits as studs, but alas, they only have 6-sided ones :\ |
| 06:56 | < Noah> | brb, making an spreadsheet to figure out what plates I need for that |
| 07:16 | < Noah> | 3070b is 1x1 tile with groove... don't mind the following babble, it's to help me keep track |
| 07:18 | < Noah> | 3069b is the 1x2 tile with groove... and for the dead bit I use a plate, so the stud shows the allignment, that way the color of the dead bit can be the same as the color for the 0 bits |
| 07:26 | < ferrelferret> | Never thought about Lego Dice |
| 07:27 | < ferrelferret> | how random would the rolls be? |
| 07:27 | < ferrelferret> | I just picked up a few Chessex sets |
| 07:27 | < ferrelferret> | but I have a friend that owns a gaming store |
| 07:27 | < ferrelferret> | :| |
| 07:37 | < Noah> | The dice should be evenly weighted |
| 07:38 | < Noah> | They're not going to be precision dice mind you, but I'm not looking for casino quality |
| 07:41 | < ferrelferret> | true |
| 07:42 | < ferrelferret> | well I'm going to log off for the night |
| 07:43 | < Noah> | Okay |
| 07:43 | < Noah> | G'night |
| 07:43 | < ferrelferret> | Later |
| 07:43 | | ferrelferret [Adium@Nightstar-30921e32.fios.verizon.net] has quit [[NS] Quit: Leaving.] |
| 08:02 | < Noah> | Okay, so, 462 pieces in total |
| 08:03 | < Noah> | So somewhere between $30-50 |
| 08:03 | < Noah> | Thaaaaat's a no |
