HMS Ziggurat RP thread roll call!

[Captain McCannon]

Adelaide and I were bemoaning the fact that as soon as we had time to further the RP story, Brass Goggles went down. Is anyone from the Daring Adventures of the HMS Ziggurat: Vol. 1 around on these forums? If so, speak now or forever hold your peace. Perhaps we can continue the RP here in the event that BG is down for longer?

Estella here and would love to play. (Misses the portrail bord far too much)

[Captain McCannon]

Pretty sure Nate Bently popped in here, but his post's gone missing.

[Adelaide Braun]

Allo! Allo!

Finally found it!

Alas poor goggles!

[Captain McCannon]

'allo! your navigatin' skills seem up to par.

off topic, but:
Captain John McCannon
"The first order given was to Capt. McCannon, Company I, to cut off the Indians from their ponies on the south side of the village. This order was obeyed with great celerity and success. Captain McCannon captured about 200 ponies at the first dash, but being closely pressed by hundreds of Indians sent the ponies to the rear and opened a terrible and withering fire on the Indians, completely checking them, killing many and causing them to retreat up Cand Creek...Captain McCannon, with his company, remained...until late in the afternoon and was the last to leave the field of battle. His brave company killed 26 Indians in one pit and must have killed 50 or more during the engagement." – From the report of Colonel George Shoup, commanding the Third Colorado Volunteer Regiment.

Any relation to the great Indian Pony Rustler?

Blimey, I didn't even know he existed!

Never really got beyond Steam London. Am curious though, as to what the premise of this story is.

Bg wiki to the rescue! Here is an overview of the story.

Sounds fun - how does one join in?

[The V.A.P.]

We pray that BG gets fixed.

[Elisha Rush]

My tag says "powder monkey" - is that the same as "gun bunny"?

Or "loader"?

And is the John Wayne movie "War Wagon" in the steampunk canon?

(wanders off to find his red suspenders)

[The V.A.P.]

Need to see that.

This looks interesting...if there wasn't the blasted BG issues I would look into it more.
