re: Move 1

[yhlee]

A player character has asked a question re: mission leadership in Move 1 and I'm opening an OOC thread to ask what y'all would like to do. Please read the comment over there, then respond to this post with your thoughts. (I'd do it over there, but we're up to 80+ comments on Move 1 already, which is going to be hard on folks playing the game over mobile, so I thought a new post for discussions would be best.)

To reiterate:

[GM/OOC: Before I respond to this, I would suggest that a logical mission leader should have some kind of history with the resistance (so, not a newcomer) and, ideally, military, intelligence, or diplomatic background as well. Does anyone in the player group want to volunteer? If not, I'll assign someone based on GM judgment and/or hilarity.]

I'd like to volunteer Ashari. They're used to taking charge, planning events, and coordinating. They have a take-charge attitude, some level of intelligence, and a diplomatic background and Andan training that could help smooth some team stuff over. They're military training is a little lacking, but they have experience in the rebellion and are willing to listen to those that do.

Clearly one of the ex-Kel would be perfect, because this situation calls for a frontal assault.

I have no particular feelings one way or another about — Ashari does seem a logical choice, but I'd be fine with a randomly selected leader, too.

As a player, I have some experience getting a cohort of introverts moving in the same direction.

But as a character, Sasha would very much prefer to let someone else take charge, then yell at them for doing it wrong. She'll accept just about anyone except for the teenager.

Does anyone have another suggestion or should we go ahead with Ashari?

Also, once we have a leader, maybe someone should compile all the information we've learned so far.

I'm also in favor of Ashari, for the record!
