Re: OOC - General Chat 02

Phelan pointed out my wording on the Dust Clouds concealment effects was a tad confusing I realized he was right and fixed it to be more clear.  The concealment penalty applies only at ranges greater than melee.

Also, congratulations are in order we are almost at 1,000 posts with this 2nd OOC thread!  I'll have start up another one sometime soon I think.

@Willa: ??3 has Total Concealment from you. ??1 has Partial. I think you may have mixed them up.

Phelan Drixos:

You're right!  I'll amend.  Thank you.

@Author.  Thanks for your response too, although I am a little confused by it.  Sorry >.<

I understand that you want me to roll perception to spot targets for the rod, but I don't know if there are any targets within 5 squares of ??1 (thanks again Phelan) that have not been spotted yet and are therefore not marked on the map. In addition, it would be a pain each round to roll x perception checks (possibly one for every potential square within range) on the off chance that one of the creatures under my curse effect dies that turn.

My preference, for RPOL anyway, would just be a flat ruling, either: yes the blast effects everything since it is akin to a blast effect cast by the rod without direction from Willa, or no only targets Willa can see are valid. I don't mind which. I can just roll a dice for it, if its easier? Say, evens = all targets and odds = only visible ones?

Again, I don't mean to cause you any headaches.  I suppose I could just default to Fate of the Void whilst in the dust storm to bypass the issue all together.

Re: OOC - General Chat 02

Willa:
@Ceba - Sorry - being picky here.  I'd be surprised if both of your attacks didn't hit, but you should probably state that you only get the extra wisdom damage if you hit with both swings.  Also you have written +wis on the 2nd attack rather than +str.


@Willa - You're right. I must have missed that. I had to post at work, so I didn't have a lot of time to double-check what I said. Thanks!

Re: OOC - General Chat 02

Update to house rules concerning knowledge checks.

@Willa:  Ah I figured explaining that it requires you to be able to see the target via the roll would clarify, my mistake.  For warlock's curse specifically I'll have to say you have to have seen your target.  So partial concealment or cover doesn't apply, but total concealment and full cover does.

I apologise for the many accidental dice rolls - first my keyboard malfunctioned, and then I realised I had rolled the wrong dice X_X Ceba is sorry.

Re: OOC - General Chat 02

@Author - Thanks :) For my part, I have only done a single damage roll on both of mine.  Its just 1 enemy got critted for max damage + rod bonus and another suffered Willa's curse damage.

Re: OOC - General Chat 02

@Willa: Oh I noticed that, nicely done btw.

To Everyone, I want to ask.  On the previous round, did you or did you not move yourselves?  Because when I did my post I noticed none of you had moved yourself on the google doc map.  So is that true or did something funny go on with Google?

Hmmm, yeah if you look at your previous post Willa you did put in X10 as you co-ordinates.

Re: OOC - General Chat 02

Oops.  I am certain I placed Willa in the correct space on the combat map though and the post does also say that she teleports back to her original start location, next to Iron Jubei.  So hopefully thats okay :/

If not, np.  She'll just have to shift a couple of spaces and lose Shadow Walk for a turn. :)

The Box Trolls movie is a good example (for the most part) of the life and times of umbrean colony.

Yay we killed them :) I'm adding the tokens to the pool. If that's okay?

Re: OOC - General Chat 02

Are the tokens for each member, or for the party as a whole? Ceba has curiosity issues. Primarily because I've never worked with wealth tokens before.

Re: OOC - General Chat 02

The assignment is to the party as a whole, I'd say EACH if it was awarded that way.  Its up to you guys to split it, when and however you like.  You'll notice there is a personal and party pool in the book.

Re: OOC - General Chat 02

Please say Willa is now the proud owner of a 'haunted' Weyr!  That would be so cool ^^ It wont have any real in game impact, as she'll still let the Narayah live there once its cleared out (assuming we succeed and she lives to tell the tale).

Sorry for the hold up but Phelan is not feeling all the way up to posting so I am having to revise how to proceed.

Re: OOC - General Chat 02

I am going to advance things because I've been waiting a week for some kind of decision and so far nothing. I strong suggest you guys either incharacter or not, pick a leader because democracy doesn't work at running the day to day operations of an adventuring party.  Sure a vote is good when it's important and a leader often takes advice but by Malus's unseen behind we need some decisiveness around here.  Especially given that you are about to enter what is effectively a dungeon complex.  Not making up your minds fast will get you all killed.

Re: OOC - General Chat 02

I vote for not Willa.  Happy for anyone else to take the lead though.
