So there's this - Semi truck goes airborne at I-74 interchange, bursts into flames upon landing - which explains what happened.

Skip to 3:00 if you're not a fan of long set-ups. It helps if you have the Dukes of Hazzard theme playing too.

Yeah, I would go the "shit looks bad, then full tilt" route. Have the party arrested, threatened with execution as soon as the judge files his report, etc. Then BAM, something terrible happens while they're in their cells, the whole ship is put in danger, and the judge and captain get toasted before they can file reports on what they saw. Maybe down the line another witness shows up who begins blackmailing them.
But I also like Ross' idea of using the built-in game mechanics as an immediate cost to the party. Systems that offer those kinds of mechanics usually play better if you turn to those mechanics first. I would personally put it up to the party, "OK, you guys know your characters are now in deep shit. I'll offer you an out if you burn all of your Fate points, or we can play through the terrible shit you brought down on yourselves."

Hall opened the door and grabbed the Marine, demanding to know who he was. The pair fell backward and scuffled for 90-seconds, Streets said.
The Marine eventually put Hall in a headlock and encouraged him “to take deep breaths and relax,” Streets said.
During the fight, the woman fled and told a neighbor that Hall was going to kill the Marine, Streets said.
The neighbor “ran out of his house shirtless and armed with an aerosol can of bear repellant,” Streets said.

This is what happens when you try to introduce romance to a typical campaign.

I did a search, so if this has already been posted blame the search feature for not finding it.

General Chaos / Re: What Vidja games are you playing?
« on: June 18, 2013, 08:38:19 PM »I am liking The Last of Us but it is very much on rails. The main issue I have is that I wish it was a bit more of a stealth game but you end up murdering so many dudes.
I finished it last night. Great game, but it had its flaws.
My chief complaint is that you have to play the way they want you to play - either stealth kill everybody, or run in guns blazing. A couple of scenes I got tactical on, like the book store, and got my ass handed to me because bad guys just kept spawning no matter how many I killed until I moved into the next area of the map.
If (number of bad guys) < (infinity), and I find a tactical spot to sit and pick them off, I should be able to clear all the reachable bad guys. Spawning more is just cheating.
