No worries, have fun , don't forget to bring some Easter eggs back.

Well now this could be amusing...

Could it.........? As Eli grabs the bloke and skips his way to the crossing?

Hi everyone, I'm currently in holiday and this is probaly the last Internet I can get for a week......soooo if I go missing for a while feel free to play as me....hopefully I'll be a able to ste...borrows someone's Internet....

What stellar effect has my magnificent roll had on Eli?

He completely failed to resist Mrs. Evans’ compulsion, so was forced to go to the school crossing (and on to the new post).

It’s a moot point actually, as Mrs. Evans spent a shedload of Luck to turn her POW roll into a 1 (Demi monde can do that), beating everyone’s score, success or not.

Not railroady at all, no siree.

New post coming soon - bit busy at work currently.

If Des looks like wandering off to Hell, Skipper will attempt to use a BJJ throw to deposit her (relatively gently) road-side.

Old witch vs Des’ iron-clad self-belief!

Update coming soon folks, just as soon as I have a free minute.

I am going to traveling to Germany for the next two weeks, so my posting will be spotty or not at all.

I apologize for the short notice.

Can I just check what happened? Leo made a POW roll instead of CON, or was that just a typo and it was the CON roll? And then Leo fireballed Mrs Evans but hit the unloved Councillor Short instead? Where did Short come from? Or was he something only the two magic coppers can see?

Just wanted to be clear before I posted another action for Skipper.

Probably a lack of description on my part.

Leo should’ve rolled CON, so I took the result of his POW.

Mrs. Evans turned into the gateway, through which you were swallowed, so she’s no longer present. She’s been telling you that she is the gatekeeper and the gate itself

So when Leo cast his fireball, it hit Councillor Short as he ran towards you. Luckily he only took 1 Damage, so is just a little singed!

Cool. I thought perhaps Leo had been asked to make a POW roll to see something the rest of us couldn't.

So really, Short was just in the wrong place. What a shame.

Yeah, I thought fireballing the guy you’re supposed to be bringing to justice was too good an opportunity to miss

Excellent...

Irrelevant observation:

I was delighted to see in the grim but (I thought) excellent film "Civil War", the young wannabe war photo-journalist Jessie was using a Nikon FE2, a very close contemporary of Skipper's F3.

And Jessie was using pre-digital film tech due to the unreliability of the Internet in the setting of the film. Not a million miles from Skipper's need to keep away from silicon chips, different reason but same result.

You will be in no way surprised to read that I used to use digital SLRs professionally (Nikons in fact) and the idea of using old fashioned film cameras appeals to me much like using vinyl appeals to music buffs.

If Skipper survives, he may swap to an FE2.
