I'd quite like to know how you guys are planning to deal with the very cold night (we're talking -20 range). You've got enough food and water for the trip, so shelter and warmth are your only problems. Please see my new thread on the IC side. |

Cool. I will interfere where necessary and make rules.
LH, if i forget to mention it, can you give me my corebook back?

Sure. It's in my room on the bedside table, somwhere in the pile of rp books. Just nick it if I'm not around.
Do comlinks tell you the direction the signal is coming from?

Nope. That would take more sophisticated comm equipment.

So presumably we have no way to tell how long it'll take us? (And therefore no answer to Pong's question in the IC thread that I can't be bothered to link to properly...)
Do droids have a low power mode? (To remain mobile - pushable - but not active?)
If not, can I reprogram him so he does?
Also, can I get some juice out of that other mining droid we found?
Let me know if I should be asking these Qs IC, but I assumed here was best.

Let me know if I should be asking these Qs IC, but I assumed here was best. No, you don't really know IC how long it will take. He does have a low power mode, but it disables his repulsorlifts. That's what tends to consume most of his power anyways. See above. That could work. You'd need a repair check or a craft(droids) check. |

Still, if he uses that during the evening to keep watch (he does have a lot of skills in all the listening and spotting stuff so shouldn't need elevation), then he should be able to keep going for 48 hours. If we're not getting close by then, then he'll be the least of our worries.
He's not too heavy anyways

No worries I also took the opportunity to reprogram him to follow my orders only, and to be something of a psychopath. So really, any time. |
