LOL, I imagine Alzmer is going to be totally reasonable about not stopping for his lemonade.

Me too, but i can't really help it. We may be able to stop later, after the intersection, but i'm not sure we can let him have a conversation, he might just invite the attention of the wrong crowd.

Oh yeah, absolutely. I'd much rather him make a spectacle inside the truck rather than anywhere someone else can see him.

Map is updated.
You are on the south side of Voi now, about 1km east of A23, on a road in a terrible state of repair. It is about 2:30 in the afternoon.

Can the 2 doing the driving both making a pilot ground test limited by handling me?

So where do you want to go/what do you want to do now?

You think far too little of him...maybe...

Besides, he's not in your vehicle anyway   ;D

I was actually going to suggest stopping so Alzmer can relieve himself and swapping places with Frenchy. I'm not a dedicated face, but my natural Charisma is pretty high, I might have success in pumping Alzmer for some information.

I wasn't sure if Mwindaji had cut his party line, I guess it probably would have made sense once we discovered the spy drone.

Frenchy is a better face than hunter, but you guys will need to decide how you want to allocate your resources, and who ends up in which vehicle (remembering you still have the bike in the back of the pickup as well). I am open to whatever way you want to go.

Frenchy also drives our second vehicle. On the other hand, Mutumbo will gladly switch with Mlinzi.

And i think its time to have our party line back.

Sorry, for some reason I thought Mutumbo was driving the Nomad. If Ren is cool with it, I was thinking we could swap places and I can try to dig a little info out of Alzmer.

We do still have the motorcycle that we could use as an outrider, I just don't know if we have enough people with reasonable driving skills to make it work.

Whatever works for y'all. Sorry I haven't been more active. Classes started this week and I'm a little swamped.

Yeah, this is where we're supposed to take the break from the 109 and take the 23 west.

Per the map there is one more village to the west that we should hit. I would suggest stopping there or on the outskirts and taking care of any last minute business.

Not sure how everyone else feels, but I think we should probably hit the northern mine(s) in the evening, find somewhere to rest up and hide between the northern and southern mines during the following day, then hit the southern mine(s) the following evening. Unless it looks like we can hit it all in one go. Thoughts?

ETA: Ren, your character is named Mutumbo/Mwindaji/Hunter, right?

If I am correct in my understanding that you stopped less than 5km outside of the city, at this time your perception checks don't turn up anything.

Also, I still need a pilot ground test from ya when you can crunch and not that it is incredibly important, but the nomad has a flat front so sitting on the cab might be kinda hard as it is going to be nearly 3 meters of the ground (you can climb up if you want though at a threshold of 1). A picture is about halfway down the page here:

Next time we ask for a GMC MPUV UCAS GAU-301

LOL, I also notice the Nomad comes with a standard front-mounted power wench.
