If you do not have the Search skill, you can still attempt it by rolling vs. Perception -5.

Remember to go to the dice rolling web page, join the room "No More Room in Hell", and make your rolls.

Kai made his Search roll:


rhoopes73 rolls 3d6 = 7 #Search roll at default

Mike can certainly try.

He doesn't have Electronics Repair (Comms), so he will have to default.

His best default for this will be Engineer (Electronics) -3, which means he is rolling at a base of 15.

The Yacht doesn't have hardly anything in the way of tools to work on electronics, so he would be at another -5 for improvised equipment.

The net is you need to make a roll vs. Skill 10.

Mike likely has a portable tool kit in his car that would count as basic equipment and would negate that -5 penalty.

FYI, for all of you making Search rolls, I will be sending the results via PMs on the forums.
To check your forum PMs, look at the top right corner of the forum window where it says Welcome <your name>. Under that is a link that says Private Messages:

SLIGHT RULES ADJUSTMENT

The Dehydration rules on your character spreadsheets do not account for current temperature. In a hot an humid environment like Florida in July, you will lose (and need to consume) more water in a day than if you were in Southern California in 65-degree weather.

GURPS doesn't have good rules for this, but the general consensus on the forums is to double the amount of water needed per meal.

Please adjust your character sheets to reflect this. Namely change the verbiage on the description next to Starvation/Dehydration to the following:

"At the end of each day, mark off three meals. A meal must consist of 0.5 lbs of food and two pints (2lbs/32 oz) of water. If you don't have enough to eat and drink, lose 1 FP and add 1 LFP for every missed portion of food, and do the same for every missed portion of water."

FYI, it's 9:30pm at night. Unless you guys are planning on leaving the yacht in the dark, mike should have plenty of time to attempt to fix the radio before people head ashore.

Ben, the Yacht’s skipper, hustled into the common room on the mid deck of the 78...

I am guess that as the one borrowing the yacht, I have the big cabin?

Probably. I didn't really think too much about sleeping arrangements.

Whatever works for you guys is fine with me.
