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?

I am not saying whether or not you can find a place to camp out between the northern and southern mines, but realize there is only about 10km between them, so you will be close to both if that is your plan. (who knows, maybe they will be totally empty and you can camp in one if you really want. Anything is possible, right?  ;)

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.

Your evasion tactics likely wouldn't have worked very well if you were driving the MPUV

What's there to evade in the MPUV?  ;)

Ah. didn't realize they were that close, I must not have looked at the scale close enough. In that case, I guess we should probably do all of them at once if they're that close.

Gremlins also like hiding in rocket pods. They find them cozy.

You know, if I do end up surviving this run and get enough karma to do it, I may just buy off this NQ...

You can pass your stop without much incident, given where you made it.

If you take off again, I need Crunch's roll still, and to know if you are going back to the highway or not.

I needed power points, LOL! The limit of 2 Power Points capped by the Street-Level karma rules wasn't cutting it.  :'(

Yes, those are all my character’s names. Mutumbo is his real name, and that’s how he sees himself, not really a runner, that’s why I use that name. Hunter and Mwindaji (meaning the same) are his runner name.

Economically unviable means they were largely mined out for the northern two mines. You don't find any additional info on the 2 southern mines beyond their close dates and lack of viability.

Just wanted to make sure I have my timeline correct. Kilimanjaro went down in 2064 and it's now 2075, right? Does that mean that Mine D was the last one to go off-line? Sorry, just wanted to make sure I had that straight.

I was thinking 68 when I made the post for some reason, you are right, it was 64. I am going to do a minor edit on that post. With the edit, that puts D jus before, and C just after.

His search turned up no current ownership records. All claims were abandoned when the miners moved out.

I'm ready to move on if everyone else is. I wasn't sure if Alzmer was going to respond or not, so I haven't posted an IC response yet.

Me too. Just a question to the GM: what is our ETA to the area of the mines?
