Okay, this is actually a decent point made by someone in character rather than just stealing a radio they already have and only saying "Let's call Captain Waters".

Silver: "That is good point. Let me see if I can contact him."

>>187744
Silver takes the radio he already has, adjusts the frequency for Captain Water and/or the plane, and calls in. "Island team reporting in, over."

She speaks with a think accent that by now, Dust is probably learning to recognize as Severyanan. But she may have a speech impediment, or other peculiarity that causes her voice to sound off as well.

Dust quickly discovers that she isn't averse to touch per se, just specifically to her tin foil hat being pushed off, as she is almost unreactive to Dust's hug.

While I don't want to say that she is "chubby," her build is closer to that of a true barrel, rather than a recessed belly, and she is stocky rather than thin or lanky. She is reasonably fluffy, although the clothing she is wearing prevents Dust from feeling the full extant. Individual ribs are not easy to feel, but the hug doesn't seem to cause her pain

I readied an attack (charm gaze) and made perception checks. Is there anything else I can/should roll?

The Dreads have higher perception than Posey, but they have no mouths or any ability to communicate verbally, so Posey instructs them to make Elon salutes in the event that they spot anything from their elevated position.
They should be able to see over the crest of the hill, and are on the lookout for ambushes, since we all know monsters love to hide behind hills.

I had declared that Brie would start by taking a 10 on disarming/extracting the payload. It wouldn't (I hope) be a low enough roll to set anything off, in that it was a military contract for industrial production, and would inform him if he will have to try harder.
See what my younger brother did to my car?

Point of authenticity, Brie's disable check will only make sure the explosive doesnt go off in extraction and transport, until reenabled later. He may not have the mechanical skill (different check?) To remove it

Sorry, but serious side-question. Is the explosive composition of the torpedo going to be something that can be factored into a/the plan?

A common composition for bombs and ordinanced explosives was an explosive detonator and a big bucket of aluminum shavings.
Might that be the case here, and is there a possibility of utilizing that knowledge in some capacity other than shoving bomb up butthole, set off bomb, profit?

It is not aluminum shavings. There is insufficient oxidizer for aluminum. It's amatol. Amatol is a mixture of 60% TNT and 40% ammonium nitrate, which is significant in that it works well in aneorbic environments, like underwater. I could not figure out exactly what state of matter it is, but I believe it is a soft solid and likely start to collapse under its own weight. The most significant detail to know is that it will absorb moisture out of the air. Also, don't hit it too hard.

I'm skeptical but good enough.

Brie quickly discerns that the only serious danger, aside from maybe accidentally turning the engine on, is the warhead falling onto its end and activating the detonator. Thus Brie inserts a makeshift pin that disarms the warhead, and then removes the detonator. After that, it's a matter of removing the warhead. Of course, all of this assumes that the warhead and the remainder of the torpedo have been secured separately before hoof. Once the warhead is removed, it may be lowered to the ground and then taken apart, Eventually, the active materials may be taken out separately.

Cavaliere is presumably looking down at them as he's up in a turret, unscrewing various mounts. He looks briefly at his busy ally before replying. "Considering we're still here, experienced enough. If we're interrupted we'll have to fight. Once I get this gun off, would you mind helping to carry it?"

Hmmm…

Cavaliere should either make a diplomacy roll, or make a persuasive argument for why they should stay. That is, if he wants them to stay. Considering that they have experience that could have some applicability to working on the plane, torpedo, and turrets, they could be useful. Certainly they are several rather large males who could help with the manual parts.

"Bøkli, you have a griffon waiting for you in Trottingham. The main obstacle to seeing her are the landing communists and the creature they're after. My group will do any fighting we need to do, but we need heavy weaponry and this plane is an Arcturius-sent gift for that purpose. With your knowledge of ship maintenance, could you help me get this job done?"

"Sorvik, jij hebt een verantwoordelijkheid naar je bemanning om ze van dit eiland te krijgen waar je ze hebt geland. Mijn groep zal de moeilijke delen verzorgen, maar we hebben jouw bemanning nodig om ons te helpen, want tijd is van essentieel belang. Kun je helpen om dit kanon hier weg te krijgen? Ziet u nog iets anders dat we van dit vliegtuig kunnen gebruiken?"

Bøkli nods, and then steps forward.
"Very well, I will help.

Sorvik, however...
"En om ze van het eiland te krijgen, mogen we niet sterven. Zullen we hier gevangen zitten. En een torpedo!"
He gesticulates his claws upwards

"Hoe weten we dat dit niet onze bepoederde tombe zal zijn?"

"Luister! Heb je de poppenpony's gezien die we hebben gevangen? Ze zijn van hun vrije wil beroofd, net zoals die tiara jou tot slaaf heeft gemaakt. Het is een onvermijdelijk gevolg van het feit dat je in de buurt van dat wezen bent. En wat de communisten betreft die van plan zijn dat wezen te gebruiken, die staan ​​er niet om bekend dat ze griffioenen uit hun klauwen laten. Dat zijn de twee alternatieven waar je voor staat als je over dit eiland dwaalt."

You have no cause to be, after I painstakingly walked you through my character creation and skill allocation.

Politely, get fucked. You may not REMEMBER, but no, I played 100% by the rules AND you were there for it, and I spelled it out for you at the time.

Mornin'! ^^

Seems a bit harsh, or mean. Perhaps, not the best way to present critique but I don't really know what this is about either, maybe it's earned and you did say it in a kinda playful manner as well.I guess one shouldn't worry about who take offence and such and only the degree of truth in statement but idk. And it's not like GM doesn't butt heads himself.

I guess, I'm not really in the mood for more conflict despite it might be accurate criticism, due to the fact that the group has almost turn toxic at this point. But we also need to be honest with our problems or they become niggling issues in the back of our minds. Hmm, imo idk.

Maybe, you're right. It's just that this thread, I feel, is hanging on a thread. ^^ It's just constant fighting. I don't get to play. And it's not fun (in general to be here) which is the main goal of the thread after all.

Yes, you might be right and it might be warranted for all I know but I'm just afraid that this will start up another dozens of posts with arguing. And while we need to air our problems with each other, I feel that there is a constructive way of doing this and more destructive manner.
