What you need isn't always at hand so you make do. We load up our gear including the booze. If we have room, take the horse or the Jeep or both. Also I would like to take some kind of basic toolkit from the workshop, nothing too bulky but lots of futureistic battery powered wonder tools that come in both metric, Imperial, standard, slotted, and Brazilian. You know, the George Jetson toolkit, or at least the best we can muster on short notice. At least the plasma torch, if nothing else.<BR/><BR/>Action: My survival skill probably applies as well as my military training to give me a good grasp of the map. So +1. My knowledge and other "brain" skills should give my a really good grasp of the setting, history, language, customs, etc. and as a native Ohioan this might be something I would have recalled from my seventh grade Ohio History class. So +2?<BR/><BR/>Mount Up!<BR/><BR/>Doc<BR/><BR/>I'm also going to see if I can scrounge up some vibroknives, just cause it sounds cool, and take three with me. Are they like these? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibroblade. I'm sorry I don't know how to link stuff.<BR/><BR/>If it is going to take more than say thirty minutes to load the ship, hide the money, etc. can I have the replicator make a couple of bullet proof vests and just purchase them with my own money, or if the company will pony up the money, all the better. If it takes too long for two, just make one for Thunderhorse as I'm sure he has no idea what a bullet or a gun is anyway.<BR/><BR/>I will spend as much time as I can spare to studying the maps and history.Dochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16979621370660001312noreply@blogger.com
