Time to unleash our mean gunslinging skills on this overgrown varmint.quote:Pull out my pistol and get to work. Bear beats pistol, but prospector beats bear. quote:"Did I leave that part out?" Schmidt wonders. "Well, don't matter. We got a bear that needs tending." Well, we just got a pile of steaks and a nice rug out of this, but what else did we learn from our light mauling?

We learned to growl.

We learned we need more pistol practice. Seriously, if we can't put down a bear with a hand cannon, what's the point of carrying it?

i'm not really convinced it's possible to kill the bear with the pistol if this mirrors real life if you are planning for grizzly bear these days and you're carrying a pistol most people carry some big gently caress off cannon like a .44 mag or a 454 that makes something like 2000+ joules of energy. our .44 colt makes 280. we are basically lobbing the bullet at the bear.

We really need to get better with pistols if we're going to use it as an option.

While learning to growl from a bear is hilarious, we are are more of a pistols gal I think.

KYOON GRIFFEY JR posted:i'm not really convinced it's possible to kill the bear with the pistol if this mirrors real life Pretty much! If you're alone then about the best you can do with if you're really good with a pistol is sting the bear enough that it goes somewhere else instead, otherwise it'll just eat your bullets and then you. If you're with a companion about the best you can do with a pistol is distract it enough so your companion can help get it, and if that companion is Caraway then she can line up a pistol shot through an eyeball or something. Otherwise it's rifles and/or combined fire if you want to kill it, and even that's not an easy feat. But for now, we must embody the spirit of the bear. quote:That growl…I can use that. quote:Below the camp lies a crude bulwark dam that pools the river's flow and diverts it to… Looks like we found what was fouling up the river... bit bigger than a few beavers though.

Might as well see what we're up against before we walk in.

Watch a while. See if we can spot the polluter- Plunder, Greedly, or Sludge are my top suspects.

We totally belong here.quote:"Yes." With that out of the way, we can ask him some questions about the mine and the dam. quote:1. "How long have you worked for Red Ribbon mining?" So, how do we want to do this? Continue to play the part of a worker, or reveal ourselves in some way?

You clearly need more hands here. Let’s try to keep ourselves suspicious but uncertain for now. Pity we can’t wield a clipboard.

The Lone Badger posted:Is choosing to wrestle an auto-nom? I kept meaning to answer this, but I forgot. Anyways, it's similar to gunfighting in that if you're doing it alone about the best you can hope for is that you you're skillful enough to injure the bear to the point that it looks for an easier meal (if you aren't skillful enough then that meal is going to be you). If you're not alone and you're not great at brawling you can get smacked around but buy time for your companion to help bring it down. If you're good at brawling then either you wrestle it while Carson or Caraway distract it with bullets or if you're with Schmidt then the two of you can tag-team the fucker into submission (the brawling check is also lower when you're with Schmidt). Either way, it's going to hurt you, but once you've beaten it in melee then you have the option of either finishing it off for that sweet bear meat or letting it slink off in defeat. Anyways, time to continue to play along. quote:"Well, you clearly need more hands down here." Schmidt provides a rather concise summary of the Native situation. quote:The camp's gate is a simple thing with just a wagon pulled across a gap in the stockade. A big fella sits atop it with a white bandage tight a recently and roughly shaved head and a rifle in hand. He waves to Terry as your little group approaches. And now it's time to meet the boss(es). quote:Terry guides you toward a homey little cabin all but wreathed by beds of flowers. The door to it opens and a tall fella with a cap of golden hair lumbers out. Just behind him emerges a stout woman; her curled tresses vibrant as she hurries up alongside the leaner man with the accustomed ease of the long married. quote:Anya pours you a cool cup of lemonade. Her husband takes a seat opposite you and idly flicks off a bit of dried mud that had stained his shirt. It could almost be an idyllic homestead except for the sprawl of tents beyond the flowers and the jets of water down in the valley. So we can figure out what's going on. quote:"We've been having some troubles. Indian troubles," Anya begins slowly. "No doubt you have noticed the stockade." Things seem to have gotten a little complicated. quote:You have got an Indian…here, in camp?" But they have a job for us. quote:1. "Very well. I shall help you with your Indian affair. Take me to your captive." Someone seems to have stepped in it somehow, so what are we going to do? There's a couple of different ways to go about it, but mostly it's about deciding if we want to meet their captive (and maybe try to get paid before we do), or blow them off/up/away (of course, it's not like most of these choices can't wait until after the meeting with the captive).

I don't like these people, so I don't want to help them. They also appear to be hiding something. But I think just showing up out of the blue with the Indians may not be the best thing to do, especially if they're already on a warpath. We're also outgunned and in the open so threatening the Admunsens doesn't seem like a good option either. So let's keep pretending to help them so we can maybe bring an indian friend. I'd like to talk to the noble savage please.
