I'm thinking in the wild is best - the show always shows us transfers out in the loneliest piece o' nowhere.

Bein' as the original working title o' this story was "Badger's Betrayal", maybehaps we should be fightin' it out a bit w/Badger & his minions (who, mayhaps, were supposed to wait for us on Persephone and got antsy or some such??)

Not me! Leastways, not for any dirt kissin', Sir.

As usual, just put suggestions here in the OOC so we can discuss, then I'll decide, and y'all will go ahead and do whatever you want anyway. (like herding cats, this bunch.)

Yeah... I've some experience with herdin' cats, and you ain't far wrong...

OK, here is one from right off the top of me head.

A very quick (as possible) conex drop and camo drape on the moon of New Hokkido. Along with a nasty hidden surprise - a sniper party to disenchant any potental Aladdan wannabes. Jayne and Book may be a good choice to lead up this mini-mission of a sniping party.

The Serenity and most of the crew moves the port city of Tomokomai (A random city name I grabbed from the real Hokkidio).

Next would be a greet and goody location swap at some local busy open air or tented gathering place with the contact (Chimera crew). Something like a market or arcade - or even a faire. Yes, Boomer - that was directed in yer direction, lol.

Back at the Conex Sniper party, our snipers run into, not Aladdan wannabes, but a group of 40 Theives wannabes.

Are they Reavers? Or is it just a bunch of low rent gimboyds (read: twits, nutters, incompentant goobers) that are looking for the 'big score' and putting on a farce (by dressing as Reavers) to scare any potential cranky owners of the stuff they wish to steal?

Only a firefight will tell...

Our Serentity group returns in time to join in the bullet-ridden mayhem.

EDIT
As to herding cats - it is best to have a open can of Seafood Delight and you have every bit of each purr-bucket's attention. With that little can in hand, you can herd 'em like lemmings!

I'm totally with that idea.

Like this one too, Astri!

Damon is very good in a fight, so he could be valuable for any trouble they run into. I'd want to have a chat with whoever is going to play Badger, I have some questions about him.

As for cats.... I love 'em just they way they are! And Seafood delight would only work for cats who decide that they like it and are hungry enough to eat it.



I'm not broken, in my dream I win...

Whoever we get, we're probably gonna have to put out another casting call for someone to play 'em. (Except maybe Early - Tash might be willin' to pick him back up again.)

Hello everyone.

I just finished a chat IM with both Deb and Squee.

Squee has some concerns on how I plan to run the next RP miniseries.

I would like to hear if there are any potential concerns from everyone else.

These are the ones I know of so far:

Squee - numerious, mostly concerning control of events outside of character devlopment.

Geezer - General length of the story and complexity and gaming style concerns. Ironed out, yes?

Channain - Xiang's personality - but I think we touched on that and achived the beginnings of a aggreement.

I have done a substantial amount of work on this and still have much more to do in order make the miniseries framework a fun thing for all, including myself.

I would hate to think it could be all tanked because of misunderstandings.

Feel free to email me at capnrahn@aol.com
