Research Lab, Round 24

This room is a mess! You think, rather loudly, to yourself as you enter.

Vials has been smashed on the floor, lab rats have broken out of their cages, research notes are scattered everywhere with some having been torn apart or burned.

Noteworthy Features
  • Research Cabinet
    A cabinet filled with various research materials.

  • Lab rat cages
    The cages that used to contain the lab rats.

  • Research notes
    A pile of research notes, fortunately this pile does not seem to have been damaged.

  • Research console
    Currently unlocked. The console is flashing for attention ;)

  • Corridor Exit (Door)

    All manual actions have been updated. View your journal for details.

    The current round will end in roughly 3 hours time (probably 3pm UTC at the latest). If you wish to use your remaining actions for this round, get them done before then.

    Due to questions about OOG I have now setup (and you can test) a sort of in game OOG.

    Every character now has a commlink and by default you are on channel 1. There are four public channels, in order to swap channel you must use ONE manual action. You will then swap channel at the end of the round.

    You may also create private channels. To do so just say something like "Creates private channel Alpha" (name must be unique). To share access to a private channel use a manual action to share access. Anyone with access can share access, so be careful who you share with.

    You may only be in one Public Channel at a time, however for hosting simplicity you may be in multiple private channels at the same time.

    Please post any questions in the Main Thread.

    Hey Chief, any chance you've got the Delta Card?

    Armory and Hangar are locked with Delta. Access via the Security Station. Wouldn't mind getting access to the escape shuttle to figure out what we need to fix it.

    And some guns would be nice too...

    Hey Chief, any chance you've got the Delta Card?


    Dooku, No I don't have that key.

    Find it odd that the Security Chief does not have a key to the Armory.

    Remember to check your journal every round for important information. Major events from the previous round will appear in the current round of your journal. (So the major event from the end of Round 3 should currently appear in your journal for Round 4).

    Important Update

    After observing how the game runs on NIFE I have decided to add an additional win/lose condition.

    Humans
  • Do NOT allow any aliens to escape with you.

    Aliens
  • If one or both of you escapes on the escape ship (with or without the humans) then the humans will automatically lose.

    I believe there are sufficient objects and abilities in the game world that this is still a balanced option. If you wish to discuss this change please post objections/concerns/thoughts in the main thread.

    Round update will be delayed (went to do it earlier but only one action had been made so didn't seem worth it). Unsure when I will get chance as I am out for most of the weekend, Monday at latest though!
