This is starting to... bug me.

 

USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS PUN.

Haha

[Caffeine11]

Alright friends. Let's get this bug squashed.

[prophane]

I admit I'm a bit confused by these dice rolls.

I see a 3d6 roll that looks to be a 9, then what looks like 4d6.

Then damage 1d6+3 for 8 damage.

What's that 4d6 there?

 

[Caffeine11]

The first was for the attack and I thought the second part was going to be a second roll for damage. I don't know what happened there.

[shawnhcorey]

It looks like it tacked the second roll onto the end of the list.

1st roll: [6,2,1] = 9

2nd roll: [6,2,1,6] The last 6 plus 3 is 9, which is the second 9 in the rolls column.

[prophane]

ehh, weird. anyway, I think we can figure it out well enough!

just need the other two to make their IQ rolls to become un-surprised!

[prophane]

Oh dang. Kelarith really struggling here!

 

[prophane]

this is just a test. I am seeing if it is possible to just copy/paste from a post to a new thread and still keep formatting.

Finn enters the shed, using the burnt torch to poke and prod. He flips over any small items to make sure there are no worms under them. Occasionally he looks up to see if anything might drop on him.

[prophane]

hey @hakootoko just copy pasted the above post. no code or anything.

 

[prophane]

I'm copying these from the Discord chat just to make sure everyone sees them.

hey @shawnhcorey How is Finn reacting to the sounds of yelling and potential combat from inside the house? @SCARY WIZARD do you want to make Nessia's IQ roll to shrug off her partial surprise/ stunned condition or should I do it? would like to move on to the next round of combat.

I edited results directly into @Caffeine11 's post. He got a hit with some good damage though the creature seems to have a fairly hard carapace.
@TheDragonOfFlame I see that Kelarith failed his stun recovery roll. RAW when you're stunned, you don't get a move, though in this type of situation, I think a Step is absolutely in order. I like the flavor of you falling down.. but you DON'T HAVE TO FALL. nothing in these mechanics say you have to fall down. It does take 2 turns to get back up, so if you choose to be on the ground, you'll be at a significant disadvantage... He could have easily stumbled back and thunked into the wall or something instead?

[prophane]

@Caffeine11 you can fast draw 2 weapons at once, each one is at -2. Do you have the Fast Draw Knife skill or is that using the sword skill too?

The failure on that falchion just turns into a Ready maneuver. So he uses his turn fast drawing the knife and normal drawing the sword. He can take a step back as he does.

He will fast draw the falchion and take the step back, then FD the long knife next turn. The use of the long knife falls under both Knife and Shortsword skill. So I assume that fast draw shortsword works for both as well.

[prophane]

He won't need another turn to do this. One fast draw was successful. The failed fast draw just turns in to your action for this round. The step back is pretty much free with any chosen Maneuver. You just can't do ANYTHING ELSE this turn. On your next turn, you'll have both weapons out and will be ready to go!

[Caffeine11]

That's fine. I have a feeling I will be needing them to parry very soon. All out defense this turn.
