This thread will also be where the oft-mentioned shopping will take place so that it doesn't clog up the two other threads. The Downtime Thread will be based during the travel time of the APC, with it taking in-character determined stops in fields, by beaches, in towns, etc.<br/><br/><b>All RP in this thread will be taking place during the time-skips that happen during the Main RP, and at the beginning, before the start of the Main RP.<br/>
<br/>
Multiple different conversations/activities can take place at the same time here. Please label where your character is at the top of the post to clarify. For example if the Squad is traveling in the APC, specify if they are currently inside the car or not, and if they're not, how far away they are, etc.</b><br/><br/>Current Location: Main Base<br/><br/><blockquote class="bbCodeBlock bbCodeBlock--expandable bbCodeBlock--quote js-expandWatch" data-attributes="" data-quote="" data-source="">

</blockquote><br/><br/>Activities:<br/><br/>Conversations: Talk however you like, about whatever you like, wherever you like.<br/><br/>Breaks: Take a load off, alone or with others. Have fun with the base setting before the Squad gets on the road.<br/><br/>Training: Its rush hour in the military base 24/7 as the nation gears up for war, go train soldier! This is a good place to train alone or with other characters, and I won't be doing review posts for training. Calculate your own clothing and health damage or don't mess with numbers at all, your choice.<br/><br/>Shopping: Everyone begins with 1000 Ducats and can gain more through regular pay, events, loot, selling things, etc.<br/>Ducats can be lost by purchasing things, paying other people, sending increased amount of money back to family (by default some is already sent back), etc.<br/><br/>Pay for Privates: 1000 Ducats<br/>Pay for Lance Corporals- 1100 Ducats<br/>Pay for Corporals- 1200 Ducats<br/><br/>Military Store- Where the prices are shit and the selection is shit. Remember, standard equipment will be supplied to the APC regularly, this is for optional purchases only.<br/><br/><ul>

Only one way to find out.<br/><br/>- Nonlethal Training Ammo: 5 Ducats per Bullet<br/>Training ammo is provided for free as part of training, but if you want to use it after deployment in the field, its up to you to waste money buying less effective ammunition.<br/><br/>Main Base Black Market- We've got the goods, and we got the connections to bury you if you try to snitch.

</ul>Hey, want to blend in with civvies? Can't be more normal than this.<br/><br/>- One-Piece Swimsuit/Boardshorts: 40 Ducats<br/>Blend in with the civvies at the beach, or, anywhere where its hot or close to the shore really.<br/><br/>- Two-Piece Swimsuit/Swimtrunks: 40 Ducats<br/>Maybe don't wear these around people who saw the 1957 Gallarian Military Summer Calendar.<br/><br/>- Normal Coat: 40 Ducats<br/>Normal.<br/><br/>- Explosive Ammo: 5 Ducats per Bullet<br/>Shoot something and there will be an explosion proportional to the weapon being fired. Increased damage all around, but can be rather messy.<br/><br/>- Tarva Ammo: 5 Ducats per Bullet<br/>Some pranks on the base involve stealing things from someone, so why not steal some of their dignity? Tarva bullets are weaker than training rounds and upon contact with a target explode into a small cloud of Tarva Larvae Dust that causes decent clothing damage to a region or two (e.g shoulders, chest, stomach, etc.). Note: No longer contains live insects, we don't need another base incident.<br/><br/>- Special Request: Depends on the Request<br/>You want it? We got it, maybe, for a price.<br/><br/><br/>Now begins the free-for-all for posting. Have fun!
