I still enjoyed it, though. Had great fun manipulating Rachel's plot (an opponent) to gloat that Lena had been killed.
Caprice's mind was locked on finding that nice boy she saw at the University a couple days ago, she could worry about nothing else but trying to find him again, wondering if he noticed her even at all.
She set off for the athletic club, thinking him the macho-type, not the kind of man that would use surgical implants to get stronger, but the young man wasn't there. As she got more excited about trying to find him again she let her mind wander and get out of control, suddenly images of powerful figures scheming in dark rooms and thoughts of robots trying to enslave their human master's filled her mind.
Panicked she fled to the last place she saw him, the University, she felt a calming warmth just by being there, relaxing enough that it was a simple task to find his mind above all the other youths. From there she followed him around the University grounds for quite a while, worried about what she might say to him, trying to find a way to casually say hello again. For a second she became distracted by a couple on the lawn, making out like it was nobody's business, clearly without another care in the world, wondering if she would ever get to share these feeling's she lost track of the boy she was following-running off in the last direction she saw him, she ran into him at full speed upon rounding a corner, knocking them both to the ground, and with that all she could do was smile and give him an embarrassed "hello".
(1T) dig deeper into the conspiracy using physical lead
(1T) Draw a Floyd Dark Card
(1T) Move to Levy University, entering Ritzy-Drawing 1 light card
(2T) Spend time with Daniel- +1 Daniel Favor
Floyd has to move that physical lead.
The map will be up soon.
On his turn, Floyd played "No, we're not playing poker ever again."
Then I hit him with a dark card and he discards "Next, let's try enhancing your senses." and "I finally understand."
(Discards are face up right? Rulebook doesn't clarify)
play : RAYMOND - 4 - I couldn't sleep again. (Haunted By the Past) - Play at the start of Raymond's turn if Parsons is missing. Raymond loses 3 Time and gains one regret. '
Matches Raymond's plot so I choose to reduce the cost by 1
This is assuming no one else plays a "start of turn" Dark card on Raymond. If Rachel has one and plays hers, it will take effect instead of Floyd's.
Raymond has 3 Time.
Was that a dark card, or one of my memory cards? Oh well, nothing I can do about that I guess, though it is complete bullshit that half my turn gets taken away just like that. I should have a turn ready by tonight.
e- Also, he now probably has an idea for what to do with Wrapped Up in Himself.
Raymond paused on the street to look up at the overcast sky. "This is no way to live," he grumbled.
1T - Move to the Blue Sun Stadium (ritzy)
1T - Follow up on the physical evidence lead, choosing to uncover a piece of the conspiracy.
Do I draw this from the hand tracker now, or wait?
If Darian does not card you, you will then draw a Shift piece on handtracker.
Since I entered a Ritzy location, do I get to draw a light card?
Wow, I am a silly goose. I thought Raymond used the long movement plan, and it appears I was mistaken. I will do my original plan then and go get the testimony lead from Noise, still uncovering the conspiracy and placing where I told you. The only difference will be the absence of drawing of a light card and shifting.
Something in the rules that I don't think I made mention of in the OPs is the type of conspiracy pieces. The first stack allows you to Dark/Light one player by 1, the second stack allows you to get a normal favour of any type, the third stack allows you to give one player good or bad baggage. Some pieces have other effects on them as well, such as placing a free Hit, or getting a free second piece from a different stack.
And Raymond needs to shift himself or another player by 1.
The map is updated. Waiting on Raymond to shift someone, then Louis is up again.
Edit: color
It's all in the disk - all the info anyone might ever want on the Haas kid. From the color of his bike in third grade, to the amount of credits in his account. And there's certainly a lot of digits there. Why would anyone have this? And why give it to me?
One thing for sure, though: Thomas Haas was in the neighborhood at the time of Roxie's death.
I visited her parents. Common, simple folks, just figuring out how hard it is to lose a loved one. They allowed me access to Roxie's computer. Do they know anything about Haas? No, they said; Roxie doesn't say much about her clients. I copied the contents of her mailbox and moved on.
My phone rang as I walked out. "Yeah?"
"Louis? I hope I am not intruding. I would like to meet with you as soon as possible."
I recognized the voice. "Sure, Li. I'm just on my way to the Stadium."
"Excellent. I promise you this will be worth your time."
1T - Move to Henn-Tessey Residence, draw a light card for free.
1T - Follow up lead, uncover conspiracy. Taking a shift piece.
1T - Move to Blue Sun Stadium, draw a light card for free.
1T - Follow up lead, uncover conspiracy. Taking a shift piece.
1T - Play "I'm cashing in one of my markers". No cost reduction, right shift 1. Louis is now in a good mood.
Deciding who to shift and where to put the pieces.
I complied, taking a seat inside his Car beside his serpentine bodyguard. I have never enjoyed these sessions.
"Word is you are looking for the man responsible for the recent Cabaret murder. I may be able to help you with this."
"I'm listening."
"But there is something I would like to have in return. If you grant me this request, I promise you will have my full cooperation."
I took a deep breath; this was my chance. "Mr Li, you know how I feel about you or your methods. If I do accept - it will be my last time doing favors for you. I want out."
Mr Li looked at me gravely. "We have no hand in her death, Louis. You know that. And should you fail this task - well, suffice to say you will never have to worry about me again." He sounds like he was pleading, which was a surprise. But the cruel smile on Tanaka's face seem to say differently. He handed me a sealed envelope, stamped with the four-taloned dragon.
"Once you see what's inside, Louis, you will see why it is also in your best interest to do what I am asking."
Put | with physical evidence on E3, dark shift Raymond once. Move lead from Castle Club to Heaven & Hell Club.
Put T with document evidence on A3 so it looks like this: |- Also light shift Rachel once, and move lead from OmniCorp to Jacobi Miner's Co-op.
