This session is basically just tying up the first act of the adventure and then beginning the second act. There's no action (wait until next episode for that!) but there's a lot of good character development, including what I think are many fun Chrome-isms.
One of these days, the other players are going to think to ask Chrome why his sense of aesthetics is... whatever it is... but so far it hasn't happened yet.
Also, here's the stand-alone "KOYNZ" commercial that originally aired at the end of Episode 3. Those of you who are familiar with my work may have noticed the script is from this blog post.
the raid that ended the lives of Peanut the Squirrel and Fred the Raccoon, and how it ties to the Second Amendment;
the Federal court ruling that Illinois' "assault weapon" ban and "high capacity magazine" ban is unconstitutional;
Weer'd sits down with Lara Smith of the Liberal Gun Club to learn how to be an ally to people who want to learn about guns but don't agree with you politically;
and Weer'd talks with Connie Elliot about how World War III might be a war fought with minds instead of guns.

Anyway, episode 4 of our Actual Play series is out. Don't worry if you're behind, because we missed playing last week and will miss this week, so you have time to catch up.
As Chrome's player, I want to make it clear that it was never my intent to blackmail the rest of the party and I hope it wasn't taken as such. Alice said I was basically threatening them with mission failure, and I can honestly say that was never on my mind. Instead, Chrome's feelings were like this:
The Leader and the other Warriors of his kroyloss (fraternity) seemed set on killing all the droyne on the planet. As the only droyne in the PC party, Chrome took that personally, and he also thinks that Denton-Warrior-Friend is more than a little deranged when it comes to orbital bombardment.
Within droyne culture, droyne who cannot contribute are encouraged to engage in a painless suicide ritual known as krinaytsyu. A sport that is ignored isn't contributing much.
Therefore, Chrome's last-ditch action was more along the lines of a samurai performing kanshito protest the decision of Roberd-Leader-friend the best way he knew how: "Well, if I'm so worthless that you won't listen to me, just leave me there to die with the other droyne you consider worthless."
Dramatic and passive-aggressive? Yes. That's how a lot of things are in caste systems. But I, the player, wouldn't throw the rest of the players under the bus of "Do it my way or fail the mission," and I really hate that it came out that way. I made sure the rest of the players knew that.
Weer'd is feeling sick after his colonoscopy, but Erin, David, and Oddball have come to the rescue with an ACP Round Table.
