Morning.

LET'S GET THIS SHIT A' CRACKIN'! So, where we gonna start out? The space port, I presume?

Indeed we shall; there we will be introduced to the ship and Master Narob Kavril.

Speaking of, have we decided on a name? I support Aluminum Falcon as well now.

Does Coruscant look especially different at this time?

Aight.

Les do dis.

Given that Coruscant looks pretty much the same in The Old Republic as it does in the prequel movies well over three thousand years later, I'm gonna say no. And no, we've yet to settle on a name for the ship.

Sullen, my man, I'm begging yout to name our ship the Aluminum Falcon. That is all.

I've been mulling it over and the only ones I can think of are Starblazer, Eagle's Wing, and Winter's Shroud.

Also, Sullen, the Class 720 doesn't appear to have been manufactured until the Rebellion era.

I'm aware, Flanker; for that particular case, I fudged it so that we can use the design even if our ship, strictly speaking, is not an "actual" Class 720. I'm rather fond of this model, you see.

Oh, I see.

Well, it does make for a rather nice change from the infinite parade of CEC manufactured freighters.

Y'know, it's fortunate that you found that audiobook, Sullen. Otherwise Griz would have sounded like a Molo'Qraaat.

I believe it's the 1300-year-old ship that was one of the many predecessors to the 720, riiiiiight?

Kind of like how HK-74 is a droid that is remarkably similar to a 2500 year old series of droids, yet not actually an HK-50, and how almost every character is using a weapon that while similar to Old Republic and Republic eras, is actually just a coincidentally similarly-named device?

Hey Sullen, I know it's not my place to say and it's always nice to have a lot of people in a game but might you consider closing the signups? We are getting a little full.

After the Gen'Dai. I fucking love the Gen'Dai.

Jesus alive, that thing's a damned monster. It's not a soldier, it probably ate one! And a bounty hunter! Does it sweat blaster bolts?

EXACTLY. IT'S GLORIOUS.

I'm inclined to agree with KSPAM here. Look at this face◊. How can we not have this on our team?

Yeah, by all means keep the Gen'Dai but this is getting popular and soon we'll have a platoon instead of a strike team

So half-a-dozen Jedi, a cyborg, a wolfman, a Mando, an assassinprotocol droid, a flying weapons factory, and an immortal killing machine walk into a bar...

They ducked.

Yes, I'll be closing them in a little bit, folks. I would have popped in last night to comment on the new applications, but it was a tiring day yesterday and I basically crashed when I got back from my evening class. I'm still a little zonked at the moment, though it should pass soon...hopefully.

I'm also working on the opening post at the moment; that should be up soon as well.

Actually... The Gen'Dai might be too powerful.
