Hey guys,
Sorry about the last few weeks.
First, I got sick! Which is a real achievement in the summer, don't know how that happened.
The other part of it is still work. We had another management shift, we're still fatally overloaded, and it's going to be like this for probably at least the next six weeks. Then, we'll have another managaement shift, but we'll hire all our other new people, so it can become an eight-person office instead of a two-person office.
Then school starts again.
So, yeah. It's the same old story. But nothing otherwise has changed!
When the war is over
Got to start again
Try to hold a trace of what it was back then
You and I we sent each other stories
Just a page I'm lost in all its glory
How can I go home and not get blown away

I'd not be adverse to the idea.

Will a third of the squadron die in crashes and accidents?

Will be a way of clearing out the roster of absent people.

Need to decide whether go with single-seater 'scouts' or two-seat 'fighters' (oh RFC and your plane classification), the latter option would probably involve NPCs.

Scouts would make more sense? Unless we want to team up for it and fly in pairs.

Yes, but could do NPCs and associated characters when two-seaters are needed.

Not to be a downer, but isn’t Excalibur Tiger’s copywritten property? Don’t know if you’ve got his permission (assume you have), but if not - this doesn’t really seem like cricket to me.

Had his permission in the past to do a direct Excalibur spinoff, though that never got off the ground.

The WW1 is inspired by Excalibur, but trying to keep it different rather than a ripoff. Though if Tigger raises any issues then I'd be happy to change stuff where possible or discontinue the RP.

Course, if it makes people happier, I could do an Achtung Cthulhu based RP instead.

It gets boring in the hour or so before close at work, I've gotta keep myself occupied somehow.

Nice. If it goes really well, you may just have a crossover with World on Fire, if it's not stalled by then.

On the bright side, I'm already up to page 10 for the first part of the story, Tigger would be proud!
