Hello
As most of you probably know, I won't be present for the next game, as I will be in New-Brunswick for a friend's wedding and to visit my new nephew.
As I'm writing this, it's quite late, so I will have to be brief. Basically, I'm a bit concerned about the upcoming game session and its possible gunplay. I think we're up for one hell of a fight, and I think we'll have better chances of wining if I am there.
If my character is absent, it diminishes the firepower available to the team. If my character is present but ran by someone else, he probably will not be as efficient as if I was running him. Jacob is an "untested" character, battle wise - well, except that scuffle with the police, and that didn't go well admittedly. He may not "work" at all. However, I at least have the advantage of having "run simulations" in my head and having designed him and being more familiar with him. If one of you ran him, you will likely forget some of his "tricks" and perhaps won't run your character as well because you are distracted. Leaving a character behind is probably not a good idea either - even the less combat oriented ones can have a crucial role to play in a fight.
I'm not saying this because I think I'm mr smartypants - I probably wouldn't run Nev very well either. I will also admit I would hate to miss a good fight, especially where I finally get to use him the way he's supposed to!
So - I'll have access to the internet, and will be able to reply - probably Sunday - to responses posted here. If needed, I can write a little "guide to Jacob". So... do you think it would be better to delay a fight? I know you guys are probably anxious to get to it so....
cheers,
