First, I choose my commander piloting his slightly modified PXH-1xSR [please see custom thread if required].

Second, he would like to increase tactics skill from 2 to 3.  He has fast learner.  Per the rules 2.2 pg 13, "Increase a skill: (New skill rank x 7)
(+/-2 per rank for either Nat. Aptitude or Slow/Fast Learner Traits), does this mean he spends 15 pts [-2/rank] or 19 [(new rank x 7)-2]?  Will that give 1 more re-roll?

Third, can I see the maps first?

Thx.

Dancer, my Friday night is wide the heck open and the only things that will be around are the critters.

1. No problem.

2.  No problem.  It costs 15 XP.  Yes, that gives you another reroll.  Make sure to post your character update in the TO&E thread and update the Google Doc.

3.  No.  Because I don't generate the maps until the terrain and map type have been finalized.

Can't do it tonight, Dan.  Let's try for next week.

Any chance on tomorrow during the day?

Possible.   A lot depends on Rob and I finishing the scenario creation.

Rob, please re-roll the map.

Wooded Lake.

2 rerolls left.

[Black Omega]

Let's try that again.

Wooded Hills.

1 reroll left.

You do know that since the terrain type is "Wooded", and you're just rerolling the maps, all the results are going to have a lot of woods on them, right?

[Black Omega]

Yes, I would like a certain amount of woods to hide/maneuver in.  But deep woods/lake the civilians can't go there.  Vehicles can't go in hvy woods and only tracked in light woods and only hovercraft on the lake with no cover.

I like it like this.  Let's do this.

No worries.  Just making sure that there wasn't a miscommunication going on.

OK, here's your map:

--------->NORTH

<---------SOUTH
Heavy Woods 1...Woodland (reversed).

[Black Omega]

See.  Hvy woods map was what I was afraid of.  Does anyone have a copy of the hvy woods map that says what each woods hex is?

[Darrian Wolffe]

OK, so the OPFOR enters from the long edge of the Heavy Woods map.  PC and Civvies start within 3 hexes of the Map center (3 hexes cause it's a tiny playing surface).

[Black Omega]

Am I to get them off of the board or just hide out for 8+ turns?  With Opfor starting at hvy wood edge, that works out pretty well.
