[Ixacise]

Nah that would finesse or might or medicine depending on method


Tactics is more maneuvering and shit

 

[Bonnenheimer]

No, you'd use Might for those since it's brute force. Feinting in a certain way to back your opponent into a corner would be Tactics.

 

[White Masquerade]

Bummer. So hitting between the legs would be medicine?

 

[Nautilus]

The old "toss a ball in the air and then nail them while they aren't looking" trick could also work. Hitting someone slightly differently isn't tactics, though. Sort of like how convincing someone to do something for you isn't tactics.


Also I was looking and it says in the manual that you can only go through the river order once per round, meaning that you can only do the wash/float/flow/flood once per round, rather than once per turn as we've been doing. So are we still using that, or are we doing it per-turn like what's been happening, @Ixacise?

 

[Ixacise]

Well it could or it could be force. It's dependent on your narrative.

Let's do it per round.

 

[Nautilus]

So, wait, are we starting that next round? Because we already have at least two violations of that in the current one. Are we just doing it from, say, this point onwards?

 

[Ixacise]

Next round it shall go into play.

 

[Bonnenheimer]

Alright, need the attacker's Rippling roll to see if Murata loses a leg or not.

 

[Ixacise]

you'll be fine if you dump 2 chi and have enough toughness. At worst you're out


 
Actually might just rule the attack a no go since going by the description it seems might based.


And mask has no might which would lower the result.


brb dinner

 

[MechaGhoul]

Yeah, I think the no-go thing is probably the best thing to do, what with the description and what not.

 

[Ixacise]

Well it's up to @Bonnenheimer & @White Masquerade really since it's their thing.


However the options I'm seeing is: don't do anything since it missed anyway, a redo with a fitting skill or nulling it

 

[MechaGhoul]

Eh true. Figured you were asking about opinions on it anyway.

 

[Bonnenheimer]

Doesn't really matter either way, as long as it's clarified. My river's full, so if it was nullified I couldn't use that 2x9.

 

[Ixacise]

Alright cool


Then let's go ahead with the rippling.

 

[White Masquerade]

-/- I'll just do it with might. Editing

 

[Ixacise]

Well bonnenheim already rolled and the marvel didn't hit. Since you have no might the modifier you'll nab is 0 which means it'll miss

 

[White Masquerade]

Yeah, I just wanted to make it official I guess

 

[Bonnenheimer]

You forgot to add Damage for that.

 

[White Masquerade]

You forgot to add Damage for that.

Ah, thank you. I'm reading this manual on it but it's really odd

 

[Ixacise]

That beautiful no sell

 

[Bonnenheimer]

Those ripples are going to add up, though. I should avoid getting hit more.


But I won't.

 

[Ixacise]

There is an art to taking things to the face without flinching. Practice enough and you can even tank a spirittail beast bomb.

 

[Blumenkranz]

It's @spandez's turn now. Go get'em, champ.

 

[Ixacise]

@White Masquerade


Sorry but you can't float that pair. It has been agreed that it can only be done once per round
