Re: 'Off the Record' - OOC Discussion
Ahem...fudge alert!
It has come to my attention of the distinct lack of long distance railroads in the African continent during the 1940s! Fudge alert, I will amend the threads as the party will now take the following route to the congo (unless players have better suggestions):
a) A boat trip to Alexandria.
b) A rail journey from Alexandria to Sudan (unspecified location) using the partially complete (and British) Cape-Cairo railway.
c) Trucks and finally a foot trek into the Congo proper
There is still some 'trouble' in Tripoli yet thou
Cheers, Hal

Re: 'Off the Record' - OOC Discussion
There's one thing wrong with that plan: Alexandria is firmly under British control, and it remains so for the duration. They're not about to let a German expedition through. There is a war on.

Re: 'Off the Record' - OOC Discussion
It would make for an enjoyable film. At the railway ticket office in Cairo, Herr Oberleutnant von Strict asks: "A return, English pig!"
How about flights to Léopoldville (Kinshasa), and then by truck into the jungle?

I figured Wahl would use a cover story for the British - Norwegian or Finnish expedition not strictly a German one? Oh well, back on the plane it is then...

Been there! Now, 20 and 15. The horror continues. Need to change pad locks! Well, one escaped - skipped town and living it large.
Cheers!

Ach, forgot about this over the past couple days. {>..<}
Still trying to get my inbox to fill with less crap so I don't miss stuff. Maybe I should switch to the inbox that puts important stuff marked first.

Getting the team together thread is up to date and I'll edit the cast tomorrow as I'm sleepy headed now
Re: 'Off the Record' - OOC Discussion
HP are the average of CON and SIZ (rounded up), not STR and SIZ. It's STR+SIZ that determines damage bonus. Poor Jurgen is severely lacking in the HP department. Thomas Werner's HP total remains 17 - he has some awesome stats!

I will shamelessly blame my two kids for me not following with who is arguing in the thread. Who started shouting at each other?

The younger staying in the Hotel is the bearded man (Alby Albrecht - archaeologists). He technically starts the fight when rising his voice (and when Airbor narrates it) on the older bald man that leaves by the terrace being chased by Alvaro Uribe.Suddenly everyone's attention was drawn by the two arguing academics as they raised their voices in anger, shouting at one another.
A bespectacled, bearded younger man spat, "YOU ARE MAD! WE WILL NEVER FIND IT!" The other a rotund, bald man stood angrily almost overturning the small table and then threw his drink in the other man's face. "I HAVE NEVER HEARD SUCH IMPUDENCE!" He uttered and then stormed from the bar in the direction of the terrace, his face thunderous.
