Another Quick G+ Heads-Up

It looks like the new version of G+ has removed the ability to create scheduled hangout events (i.e., the weekly invites I send to the next game session). Right now, I can still switch back to the old G+ to create the event invites, but that functionality seems like its days are numbered.

Practically speaking, this will mean that very soon there will not be automated G+ reminders of our game sessions or links to join the hangout  on our community page. That is inconvenient and will likely cause a few headaches at the start of each week’s game until we adjust. We’ll just have to see how it goes. 

I feel somewhat vindicated by this Fallout 4 exploit to get fusion cores — my power armor is better designed:

“You don’t have to become their enemy to do this – just get your pickpocket perk up to 3 then keep your eyes peeled for suited’n’booted Brotherhood troops. Sneak up on them and you can steal the Fusion Core right out of the back of the suit. One hell of a design flaw if you ask me, especially as this then prompts the soldier to pop out of his now semi-non-functional suit and leave it right there, so you can then rob limb, torso and helmet armour upgrades from it. Or even the whole suit, if you’ve not bought one yet. If you’re enemies with the Brotherhood, this is also a powerfully effective strategy – sneak up, take the core and make them hatch out of their protective shell before you start fighting.”

Dad’s in the hospital and I will not be in tonight

Please see the article below about changes to Google Hangouts. Long story made short: they will be discontinuing apps (including Roll20) within hangouts very soon. For a limited time, though, the legacy version of hangouts will be available — so that should cover us tomorrow night if the app isn’t working. We will need to discuss what to do after that.

Typical Google – let’s make it better by making it less.

Applicable for several of our battles and what Axel would do more if I didn’t hold back…

So the mechanics are not that off !?! Don’t begrudge that player his exceptional strength bonus to damage!
