Can't show up one day? Your character's probably taking the mission off. The only adverse effect that this could possibly cause is making it a bit more challenging for the rest of the group, but Im planning on scaling difficulty based on how many people show up so that's a bit of a moot point.
As per first meeting, yes, THIS COMING SATURDAY, the 7th of February of the year 2015 (or if you're Tom Cruiseship over here, then Sunday), will be the first session. Be there or be square.
Heeheehee okay, sounds fun. Never tried Long War as a tabletop before, but it sounds like it could translate pretty well. Sounds like there will be plenty of ways to die horribly, too, if my X-COM experience taught me anything.
One more question I had: have you ever heard of the system Traveller? It's a bit more complex than Long War, but it's pretty good when it comes to high-risk (failure and death) space adventures. Back in college we ran a campaign or two and it was pretty great.
