The One Time I Gave my Colonist a Free Pass for a Break...

My colonist literally had their partner cheat on them and dump them while they were giving birth.

And if that werent enough within 24 hours somehow a fox managed to sneak in the base and chew off the babies foot (the babies crib was next to another colonist; the fox was beaten to death almost immediately but the damage was done.

This is the one time I'm going to give you a free pass for snapping and trying to free the gorehulk.

Why did Mal and Jayne want to get the body out of the ship asap?

I'm referring to Dobson in the pilot.

Okay obviously having a dead fed aboard is a recipe for disaster but was it really necessary to risk getting caught in the doors to throw his body in the desert? They could have easily just jettisoned the body into space the second they lost the Reavers; if anything it would have been harder to tie to them. Hell they could have a crew member who is not Walsh do that mid chase.

Obviously it looks cool.

Why does everyone still use Cowboy Weapons?

Not everyone but more than a few characters.

Lever action shotguns, lever action rifles, the occasional peacemaker etc.

I get that lower tech worlds don't have the same manufacturing base but some of that gear would have been considered dated by the 90s (especially the lever action shotguns and peace makers). There is a reason almost no one brought repeating rifles to ww1 or ww2.

So what's the lore reason? It does seem easier to make an akm....

Don't get me wrong it does look cool.

He definitely has more in common with Jayne and usually gets along with him better; but I always got the sense that while he doesn't like Simon he respects what he did for River; the matter how hard it makes his life.

Wierdely enough the only times Malcolm was furious or digusted with Simon are in the pilot and I think he kinda understood he would have done the same in Simons shoes or he didnt hace the full info. Maybe Serenity although he was mad at everyone.

With Jayne I can recall a few times where Mal came down way harder; like his lewd comnents towards Kaylee in the pilot, Ariel, it does say something that when Simon drugged Jayne Mals reaction waa huh good idea . That and Simon has never tried to purchase a human with a rifle.

What do you guys think?

Obviously I don't want to be within three miles of the guy but I can't refuse clients.

He has a long history of causing courthouse fatalities; does this mean the company can/will cancel my life insurance?

Winter has come; our food supplies are wiped out; its -16 degrees out we're out of wood, everyone hasnt eaten in days, 2/3 people are bed bound from previous fights with anomalies; there are two dead colonists and several dead raiders in the yard. No one has the energy to cook so we just literally grab raw meat from bodies (animal and human).

Do you spend your precious energy

  1. Chop down wood to make a fire/get real food?

  2. Go hunting so we aren't resorting to cannibalism.

  3. Bury our own dead

  4. Just stay in bed and try and stay alive.

  5. Beat the one healthy person to death unprovoked out of frustration..

Guess who picked option 5?

I'm still recovering from loosing that manpower almost a year later.

My tenants: Female dominated, rituals, and sacred drugs (I considered cannibalism but I liked the idea of them being really good with plants and using hallucinogenic herbs to see the future).

Role playing rules:

  1. Psychic powers are developed at almost any cost.

  2. Men can voluntarily join; but men captured in battle will be used for rituals or enslaved. Men cannot have leadership positions.

  3. The main base basically looks like an abbey.

  4. Goats are sacred and cannot be killed.

Any other ideas? I'd love to get more than one psychic.
