09:49:56 Devastator: mmm, save them all.
09:50:30 Devastator: mmm.. two regular spells is cheaper than one Group Heal.
09:50:42 Devastator: then need to get two more antidotes.

09:59:03 ER: a murder mystery game, supposedly
10:06:07 Devastator: I'm a freaking dinosaur.
10:06:34 Devastator: just edited out the word 'queer' used in the way it means other than homosexuality.
10:08:07 Devastator: and I'm wondering if someone's used it that way in the last sixty years.
10:11:05 Devastator: just did a TBC, don't want to finish it now.

18:49:26 Nikitian: How's Protective Garment enchantment, by the way? When I understood that a combo like that could be made with those results, I thought it was pretty thematic and useful in Emelia's line of work

20:43:19 Nikitian: Hi! Yeah, I'm here :)
20:43:53 syv: Gonna write up a turn, but a minor unrelated thing-
20:44:39 syv: You called a revolver a "sevengun", which I don't believe I've seen before. After a minute of thinking about it, it occured to me that the Nagant revolver was a sevenrounder, and IIRC pretty widespread in Russia in its day.
20:45:05 syv: Just curious about that name for a revolver. Is it a russian thing, or?
20:45:35 Nikitian: (to the point of certain cultural influence, a lot of Nagant mentions in culture)
20:45:42 Nikitian: Nope, just me trying to be witty
20:45:53 Nikitian: I believe that "sixgun" is a thing?
20:46:51 syv: For a bit a part of me was kinda hoping it was a nagant, just because I think the design is neat. Flawed, but neat.
20:49:34 Nikitian: I'm afraid I don't recall much about its design, except that it had a silenced model variant (something very rare with revolvers, IIRC)
20:50:21 Nikitian: Anyway, we can always say it works like that, as its design has never been specified yet :)
20:57:16 syv: (got distracted mid message, whoops)
20:57:19 syv: Basically the cylinder of the revolver, which holds the bullets, moves forward during the firing action. IIRC combined with the odd long cartridge shape, this creates a seal between the barrel of the revolver and the cartridge, preventing gas from leaking out of the cylinder gap.
20:58:04 syv: Most revolvers, gas leaks from that cap, and can basically cut you if you have flesh in front of it. A foregrip on a revolver is a baaaad idea.
20:58:36 syv: It's also why they can't be suppressed--there'll always be a fireball out the cylinder gap.
20:59:18 syv: But in functional use, it's a bad thing. It makes the hammer REALLY heavy to pull back, because not only do you have to rotate the cylinder, you're also moving it forward.
20:59:56 syv: The double action models, which pull the hammer back when you pull the trigger, are famously *horribly* heavy, about 20 lbs trigger weight IIRC.
21:01:44 Nikitian: Ohh, yeah. Explains why it can be suppressed, with gas seal
21:02:04 Nikitian: Thanks for the explanation! :)
21:02:32 syv: I just like describing gun fax
21:06:38 Nikitian: How do you like the new cards, by the way? And were the enchant changes acceptable/in line with what you wanted?
21:12:31 syv: It does all seem fine, though I'm not taking Ice (source)
21:13:51 Nikitian: Ok :) As I said, I could see both variants working
21:18:49 syv: Oh, and I assume Goj doesn't know anything about these people?
21:20:25 Nikitian: Well. I assumed no. But, as it's still not clarified (and this is partly a suggestion game) you can also claim that they're part of your master plan all along, and - you know what, I wouldn't mind such a plot twist :P
21:21:36 syv: Eh, having some conflict would be good IMO.
21:25:48 Nikitian: A little unrelated to the turn itself, but - how's the appendix? I found the number of cards in the game already daunting, so decided to list them, but then simply writing explanation seemed boring and unneeded (the rules are already too verbose) so I decided to focus on unobvious and interesting technical data
21:26:01 Nikitian: Hope it would be useful for choosing new cards one day
21:28:01 Nikitian: Ok, you can save it for later :)
21:28:09 syv: Nah, just checking it now.
21:28:28 syv: It looks good. Reasonably compact, enough explanation to understand without being overwhelming.
21:33:42 Nikitian: Oh, and just in case, spellcasting section expanded by a couple final paragraphs, including some stuff about enchantments (maaybe should have used blue text)
21:34:14 Nikitian: Just thought it could be relevant to Goj
21:36:11 syv: Ahh, if you edit stuff in spoilers you should note what's in it. I simply don't tend to check end-of-update spoilers unless I know something would've changed, as they tend to just be storage for notes.
21:38:37 syv: I'll probably give Goj an attack spell, or more likely a focus for one. Something that could reasonably be justified as a tool.
21:39:27 syv: I don't want to give him any weapons, or magic strictly useful for combat, because he's just not the kinda person who ever fights. He's cower and try to make a deal before pulling a trigger, if he thinks it could work.
21:46:30 syv: Gonna be heading to bed soon, I'll leave this open for a bit. PM or say
syv if you want a response to anything

23:00:23 Nikitian: (Oh, and you got a family name at last, courtesy of
syv)
23:00:29 Nikitian: Just wanted to share, that's all :)
23:51:46 ER: not sure what to do with the update, seeing as I can't use magiccards and I'm not sure how to deal with the visitors
23:54:33 Nikitian: Well. You can always start shooting! :V
23:55:04 ER: right, just considering how my character should react
23:55:12 Nikitian: Before
syv gave his spin to the story, I could recommend trying to gauge their truthfulness, but now... well, maybe it doesn't matter.
23:55:50 Nikitian: You could try convincing them to leave or something. Not that it'd be easy, but I think it could be in character for Zilla.
23:59:49 ER: could I have a quick empathy roll anyways?
