Dice Rifts Adventure OOC

[Sherwood]

I fixed that. You have only gone through two.

 

[Sherwood]

I was thinking that it would use an action for each drone, but with the controller it does not. So yes, you have six actions with each of your two drones.

 

[Purr]

Sherwood, would you roll for Gradicus's Strike and Damage (if successful)? I would like to see how these demons like a katana that deals double damage to them. =)

 

[Sherwood]

No problem. It's just the katana strike, since you activate the shield, right?

 

[DraconianWarrior]

ok so did this change the amount of damage that i did since we now know that i am capable of doing all of those attacks? and if i need to roll to see if each individual burst hit then i would like you to roll it with your dice if that is ok sherwood. sorry for this giant mess and confusion.

 

[Purr]

Sherwood Yep! Gradicus is working on creating his own style. =)

 

[Sherwood]

I can make the rolls for you if you'd like. A natural 1-4 on the dice is a auto miss, but the one shot you did make did the 30 MDC.

 

[DraconianWarrior]

ok and what about the rest of the shots that were fired? i understand that demon 1 dodged the first shot but now that i know that each shot is a different action, doesn't that mean that each shot has a chance to hit? same for demon 2 except that i hit it once already.

 

[Sherwood]

They only are able to shoot once per action. You still have four more attacks to make with them.

 

[DraconianWarrior]

i used those actions for attacking. thus the 6 rolls for damage

 

[Epiphany]

I know you don't Discord, Sherwood, but man this conversation would have worked so much better with livechat...

 

[Sherwood]

i used those actions for attacking. thus the 6 rolls for damage

You only get one roll per attack, not six. You roll once and do a single 1d4x10 per shot.

 

[Purr]

Draco, do you see how each of our characters is describing our attacks? Each of those is one action. Blake does not get to use all 4 of his actions while the rest of us only get 1. Each of us uses 1 action/attack until we run out. Then we start a new round.

I know you don't Discord, Sherwood, but man this conversation would have worked so much better with livechat...

You're right about that! Discord would have been just the thing!

 

[DraconianWarrior]

i get six actions with each drone, thus i attack six times.

 

[Purr]

Yes, but not all at once.

 

[DraconianWarrior]

so we only get one action per round?

 

[Sherwood]

i get six actions with each drone, thus i attack six times.

One at a time. Everyone gets attack one, then we go Down the line to attack two.

 

[Purr]

Nope! Again, Blake has 4 attack/actions per round. With his drones, the drones get 6 attacks/per round. Remember? =)

 

[DraconianWarrior]

ok so i can attack 6 times per round?

 

[Purr]

Yes, but only when using Blake's drones. Otherwise, Blake gets 4.

Once everyone runs out of attacks/actions, we start round 2.

 

[Sherwood]

Only with the drones. On your own, you have four.

 

[DraconianWarrior]

ok i am extremely confused. i understand that i have four actions, and six when i use my drones. im confused how do we diferentiate the rounds? i thought that each was over when everybody has gone.

for example. when the person with the lowest inititave finishes their turn then the new round starts.

 

[Sherwood]

Let's say we have three people in the fight, two with four actions and the third having six. As the round starts, we go down initiative order for everyone to make their first attack. Once all the have done action #1, we go back to the top of the initiative order for action #2. Then it is time for action #3, and the same for action 4. Now we have the one fellow with six actions. He gets to perform action five and six without being countered or dodged.

Once he is done with his action six, that melee round is over as a new melee round begins, each one getting all of their actions once more.

 

[DraconianWarrior]

oh ok got it. that seems like a wierd way of doing it, but then again im used to doing things irl with people in sessions.

 

[Purr]

Glad to hear it, Draco!

Here's how to read Sherwood's Combat Details. =)

26 - Kimberly [2]
19 - Terra [2]
17 - demon 1 [2] injured
12 - demon 2 [2] injured
8 - Shaona [2]
6 - demon 3 [2] injured
5 - Blake [1] <====
4 - Gradicus [1]

Draco, in the above example, take notice of those [1] and [2]. That tells you which action in the round that character has used. Shaona has used 2 actions, Blake has used 1. =)

In this example, that arrow pointing at "Blake [1]" indicates it is Blake's turn.

After Blake is done, that text will become "Blake [2]". Then it becomes Gradicus's turn.

The arrow will then point at "Gradicus [1]." After Gradicus has used his 2nd action, his [1] will become [2]. Then it becomes Kimberly's turn again.

Once everyone is out of actions, Round 1 ends and Round 2 begins.

Hope that helps! =)
