Sad to see you go, Wort.

Well, I tested positive for covid today - I apologize for any delays on my end.

In reply to Roclindhir (msg # 108):

Balls.  Be safe, feel better.

That sucks, man. But I've known many folks who just get a bad cold. Fingers crossed!

In reply to Incantrix (msg # 110):

Thanks. So far it hasn't been worse than a really bad cold or the flu, but still

In reply to Roclindhir (msg # 108):

Stay safe and get better soon.

In reply to Telric Traventor (msg # 112):

Thanks.

If only as a cold or fly, just a little patience and some paracetamol).

In any case, I wish you a quick and full recovery.

Thanks.

Sorry I have been in hospital for a day and a night getting tests done, which all came back clear. I will get a post up in the next day. Thanks.


Cymon.

Well, I'm doing a lot better now - just give me a bit to catch up and I will post.

Glad to know you're better.

We have not advanced much, though (but a thief's luck depends on your decision)

In reply to Roclindhir (msg # 117):

Glad you are on the mend!

:)

Sorry for the delay, hoping to get something up tonight.

So I'm brand new to the system, what do I need to roll for perception?

Player characters in Savage Worlds (often called Aces -- they use cards a lot) roll against their skill level (in this case Notice) using the dice level allocated, plus a 1d6 wild card roll (many card references). In your case, you have the minimum allocation to Notice 1d4. So you will roll 1d4 and 1d6. If either of these rolls equals 4 or more you will have "succeeded" in the base task. If you roll an 8 (on either dice -- not total) you do even better. NOTE: When you roll, you will reroll any dice that scores the max amount and keep going until you don't roll the max amount. This allows some very high numbers to be rolled on a single roll. You don't have to do this yourself, the dice roller has settings for all this. Note the dice entered in the Manual input field and the checkmarks in Reroll Max. I like to record each die, but you don't need to.



In the case of any sneakiness, it's not quite so cut and dry. Your target number is not 4, it's whatever the sneaky character rolled as their Stealth roll.

On that note you should probably set the default dice roller to be configured that way, so it pops up automatically.

Thanks!

I can see how to configure it to Reroll Max and Record each die, but not how to remove the number of what type of dice input boxes in the top line. Maybe there isn't a way? If you know, please tell. Thanks.

Also note that when we get into a situation requiring initiative, we will pull a card from the full deck of 54 (including Jokers) -- an option under Game System, special dice. If you get a Joker, that is very good for you and your compadres. Bennies and bonuses, oh my!

I'm afraid the second die (the wild die) should always be 1d6...

I don't think you can remove the pull down menus to select dice type but if there is anything in the manual entry field it will default to use that.

I will be out of town from the 15th to the 20th, so feel free to bot Roclindhîr as needed.

Well, I've clearly let you all down and the game has languished. My apologies for that. I think I had hoped the game would just organically run itself once we were on the road, but it still requires an effort I am unable to make at this time.

I think I will delete the game next week.

Thank you all for your persistence.

Thank you for offering us the po ssibility of playing
