Will either charter a boat or hire on with a Pirate vessel again that will eventually be heading to the destinations of choice. Wanting to look at how Netherlands is getting the armaments its selling and in general how the operation works. With Panama (more likely to have to charter a boat out and have ti wait for me off the coast while I scout it out if no Pirate vessels seem to be going through) I am looking to get onto the land and stay in cover for a day or so and get an idea of the land, and how they do the ritual/magick boats to the other side. Obviously since I am spending 3 BGA points this turn I am anticipating this being a slow casual process, not a quick in and out recon.

Neither has the resources to assault the place or set up business elsewhere so we’re gonna try to drive business away by subtly sabotaging things about the facility.

If the anvil thing can’t be done ro can’t be done this time period thats fine I am just laying the ground work. If it can be done thats great too.

Type of BGA:  Investigation

Short Description:  Check out Robert Williamson (of Evergreen Valley Health) as a continuation of last BGA round investigation of Doc Johnson’s Letter

Relevant Proficiency, Skill or Contacts:  Espionage and Intelligence 4, Law Enforcement 1, Underworld 2, Tracking 2

Where are you doing this thing:  ENY

What do you expect the outcome to be:  Information sent from the GMs

Maximum Points to devote to this BGA:  1

Long description (if necessary):  Although currently wanted in the ENY I expect to be able to surreptitiously get in and back out to do this via my espionage skills, although if needed either Nico Toscani or Tartilini will help me get whatever papers I need to do so, also my new friends in the boston underground might be able to help as well. Doc Johnson believes that the Robert Williamson from Evergreen is the one who’s fingerprints are on the letter I wish to try to confirm this (get mail from his trash or something and compare prints) as well as look into him and find more information specifically about him.

Type of BGA:  Investigation

Short Description:  Looking into a sample of the substance/drug that incited Rom to attack Rosy a few games back. Want to look into the origin of the substance and where it came from.

Relevant Proficiency, Skill or Contacts:  Espionage and Intelligence 4, Law Enforcement and Security 1, Underworld 2, Tracking 2

Where are you doing this thing:  LA

What do you expect the outcome to be:  Information from the GMs

Maximum Points to devote to this BGA:  1

Long description (if necessary): Just looking for basic information about the drug (even though Falco is admittedly by no means a scientist) what it is and where it comes from is the important part.

Type of BGA:  Investigation

Short Description:   Continuing my hunt of the boogeyman (Torvald) cause I’m stupid

Relevant Proficiency, Skill or Contacts:  Espionage and Intelligence 4, Law Enforcement and security 1,  Underworld 2, Tracking 2, Hold Out 3, Immune to Common Sense 7 (note: not a real skill/proficiency)

Where are you doing this thing:  Wherever the trail leads me

Maximum Points to devote to this BGA:  3

Long description (if necessary): Continuing to poke my nose where it doesn’t belong and following what Torvald does, trying to look for more patterns I might use to be able to predict who he might go for next. In addition to this really stupid decision, Falco is also going to spend a little bit of time looking into orichalcum and trying to find a source for it (legitimate or shady no preference). Last but not least, Falco has been given (as part of a previous deal with Doc Johnson) some of the Cancal Vaccine that is “supposedly” deadly to critters like Torvald. Falco is pushing the limit and pretty much willing to take a beating from Torvald (as has been promised to him) for the sole purpose of getting a shot at him with this syringe. I am not sure this is the kind of thing the writers wish for a BGA but putting it out there.

Long description (if necessary): Trying to make the concert just a nightmare for the Freakshow by causing the stage to fall apart mid-performance. Not looking to get anyone hurt (although if it happens Falco won’t lose any sleep over it) but a small charge in a previously weakened area of the stage set to go off at a particular note during one of the songs that will crash down either the rigging over the stage or bring the stage down itself and hopefully end the concert early. Most of the skills are aimed at being able to get the device in and Falco out quickly and unnoticed.

Charlie Watkins, the legendary thief who maybe took the Nuke from the ENY

Information on who the leaders of the Resistance are and what their plans are

Dirt they may have gathered on the ENY Top Brass, specifically Libertore and anything they know about his connection to something called Applejack.
