Purgatory

I think Hollow Men is clear to move onto the next plot point or what have you, unless there's anything else Cirno would like to do?
 
[QUOTE="The Fuzz]Got a success on that strength roll. Is Vikk clear to shove the sword home in the fucker?

[/QUOTE]
With a -2 die penalty - I was waiting to see if Knight wanted to post.
 
Oh shit, son.


@KnightofShadows, here's hoping you can make good use of the distraction Vikk has provided.


Next round, Vikk will basically be spending all of his Combat Pool on defence while falling back out of its reach.
 
I just remembered that I was supposed to be joining that group, and was on my way home to do so, before I got put to sleep for a long as s time. lol.
 
Sorry for any confusion, but I am out of combat die, and was waiting for your go Grey. I thought I had posted the fact earlier, since you indicated that "Round will end when your Combat Pools are used." - If its my go, let me know. Again sorry for any confusion.


@ Vikk , I will press the attack and see what I can do.
 
Hmmm. Yeah, so two rules queries, one specific to this, one more general.


In this one, is Vikk rolling his Fitness (3) against a difficulty (base 11) modified by his Rings (3)?


That would be 3 dice at difficulty 8.


Also, the +2 to Defence from using a polearm.


Is that a +2 to the dice rolled for defence, or to the Defence Rating?


If it applies to the Defence Rating, is that just the Parry rating, on the grounds that you are using the weapon to parry, or to both Parry and Dodge, on the grounds that the weapon's greater length and reach make it easier to anticipate and react to attacks, effectively that it's easier to hold off an attacker?
 
It is indeed Fitness as dice, Rings as modifier.


The +2 from Polearms is for the static value, not the dice. It does apply to both, however, because you can reasonably use it either way.

Meaning that spears are, as they should be, the weapon of sensible folks out to murder the shit out of nancyboy swordsmen.


"Louis Anglesey, Earl of Upnor, finest swordsman in England, beaten to death with a stick by an Irishman in Connaught."
 
Anyway, post edited, roll added.


By the way, Grey, any time I get a really good roll at a really good time, I generally screenshot it. If you'd like me to start noting that, and keeping the recorded rolls handy, I can do so, no problem. I just don't really like using the site's own dice roller.
 
Oh, I am an idiot. Vikk has a specialty in Appropriate Use of Runed Weapons.


Can I stick an extra die onto that last roll?
 
I'm waiting for the point where Alastor and Liowan completely rip off the latter part of Django Unchained.


Just Liowan nailing a bunch of dudes with a big knife while screaming "DOGTANIAN MOTHERFUCKER!"

*wiki'ed* xD What a genre switch that'd be.
@Grey: If iron is bad for Faeries, what about steel?
Steel cooks all the magic out. It works on them much as it works on anything else - with a sharp edge and a good arm. Which means, given their proclivity for blithely ignoring things like physics, that it is sometimes comically ineffective.

[QUOTE="The Fuzz]Also, yar. Arrela's next move will be to carve a pair of staves and go pick a fight with Acamus.

[/QUOTE]
Good. Good.
 
Grey, where are we with respect to the round ending/renewed combat pools? I utillized all my combat pool on my strike this round, and am not sure when or if the round ended. Could you add a designation to posts to let us know whenever there a new round is starting, or is there some means by which I should be able to determine such readily? I just don't want to jump in and post out of turn. - Thanks, KoS
