Shivak & Spike vs Darth Madbear

ok, very good.

5 hits on sprinting = 10m or 5 more hexes, for a total of 8 hexes. Can you please give me a letter\# hex for your movement?

5 hits coming at Spike!

Spike needs to roll his Reaction to avoid
or
Declare an interrupt, Full Defense, and roll Reaction + dodge, using his next complex action

Looks like that will get me to 5V. No worries if that does not count as cover.

Spending edge. 8 dice + 4 edge. Rule of 6 applies.

6,5,3,4,2,6,4,5,2,6,3,1

5 hits + 3 extra dice:

2,4,1

No damage to soak, 3 edge remaining.

Spike turns his profile to a lean stance called "Razor's edge." His focus draws the energy out of the suddenly chilled air around him. His magnetism pulsing a dull hum that repells the blasts that come nearest.

(Spending edge= force?)

nicely played!  that would have hurt.

Edge = Force Point

Ok, Sith Warrior is up.... remember his 6 boxes of wounds, which is (I think) now a -3 to all his dice pools

map with the letters\#s was saved at work, but I think this is right

The Sith Hunter eschews the normal foolishness of immediately engaging a Jedi in Melee, and lays down fire as he moves towards cover.

Sith Hunter -

Simple action, sprint to cover around white car:

STR + Athletics, 9 dice -

3 + 5 + 6 + 3 + 5 + 6 + 4 + 5 + 3 = 40

3 hits

8 dice, 1 hit plus a glitch. My hit can still count uf I have a glitch).

Did matt include the Sith hunters damage box modifiers?

navyik wrote:Did matt include the Sith hunters damage box modifiers?

No. Standy by.

To my understanding, having taken 5 boxes of damage, all of the Sith Hunter's dice pools are now reduced by 1, correct?

Just a quick note.. I bungled my build a bit so I had to revise a couple things. It wouldn't have impacted anything so far and the corrected character will be used for this fight... lots to figure out here.

-1 is how I read it too, Matt.

Sith Warrior can move 6m or 3 hexes at running speed + 10m (5 hits x 2m) for sprinting = 8 hexes (let me know if position on new map is ok)

I think the -1 is also correct, so just knock off the last die rolled which was a 5 and a hit.  Sith got 2 hits on his attack roll

Spike scored 1 hit on his Reaction, but glitched!  

Glitch rules are very vague, intentionally.  Here is what they say

Glitches
If half or more of the dice pool rolled come up as 1s, then a glitch
results. A glitch is a mistake, error, fumble, or random fluke that causes
the action to go wrong in some way. It’s possible to both succeed in a
task and get a glitch at the same time. For example, a character who
rolls a glitch when jumping over something may knock the item over,
or land on a nail she didn’t see on the far side. The exact nature of
the glitch is up to the gamemaster, though we recommend you choose
a negative effect that is dramatic or entertaining, but not disastrous.
The nature of the glitch can be tempered against the number of hits
achieved: 6 hits and a glitch would be a minor setback, while 1 hit and
a glitch would be a severe annoyance.

Spike contorts his body, trying to dodge the blaster fire, but loses his balance and falls prone.  The 1 hit does count, but Sith scored 2 hits, so he tags Spike as he falls.

What is the DV of the heavy blaster pistol?  I think it is 6P -2AP, but just checking what I told you

Spike will need to roll his Body + Armor (1st # for blasters) -2 to try and soak 6P  (assuming those #s are correct)

map is updated, let me know if positions are ok

6,3,4,6,6,4,1,5,5,1,2,4,2

5 hits to soak.

I would point out that the most common Heavy blasters do 5 dmg. Only the warhawk does 6. Just sayin'...

DV of the pistol and notwithstanding possibly 1 box of damage....

Trooper Red is up

should have been 7d?

since it was the 2nd attack Spike reacted to without a refresh, but little matter, I haven't been asking for rerolls, just noting changes

Positions look good.

Trooper Red dashes towards cover at 19/I, seeking to fully establish the team's base of fire. He squeezes off a narrow burst at the criminal Shivak as he bolts...

I think you nailed the mechanics!

ok, 4 hits coming at Shivak

options:
Reaction + Missile Parry (since Shivak readied his lightsaber on his last action)

Full Defense Interrupt - costs next Complex action
Deflect only:
Reaction + Missile Parry + Dodge

Deflect and Redirect, splitting dice pools in half:
Reaction + Missile Parry + Dodge \ 2 to deflect
Reaction + Missile Parry + Lightsaber \ 2 to redirect

true, true. It just comes from practice. We can all rattle off basic d20 stuff from memory.....

5th lvl fighter has BAB of +5 +4 (str 18) + 1 (wpn focus) + 2 charging (-2 AC).... can move 60 ft in a straight line and make 1 attack, etc etc

this is why doing a test fight with a version of your own character is so helpful. Alan is learning the actual rolls, modified by range, rate of fire, dice splitting, etc that he will really use in live play. Josh has changed Shivak many, many times, tinkering with the build.

...and is still unhappy with it.

anyway,  Reaction plus missile parry

looks like you are firing at your full 17d

I found the arm sling

Hidden Arm Slide: Attached to the forearm and worn under
clothing, this slide can accommodate a pistol-sized weapon. With a
wireless signal or correct sequence of arm movements, the slide releases
the weapon/object right into the wearer’s hand. This takes only
a Free Action.

questions:

navyik wrote:

1 - by the damage, the autoblaster looks to be bigger than a pistol - Translation - what is an "auto blaster"?

2 - what is range on the autoblaster, RC, etc?   range penalties (no gun stance), -2 first burst, -5 2nd burst

3 - related to above, Spike fired his Flechette last time, it takes a Free Action to drop that first

4 - are you interpreting the object being placed in Spike's hand as being "readied"?

Read y Weap on
A character may ready a weapon by spending a Simple Action. The weapon may be a firearm, melee
weapon, throwing weapon, ranged weapon, or mounted or vehicular weapon. Readying entails
drawing a firearm from a holster, drawing a throwing or melee weapon from a sheath, picking up
any kind of weapon, nocking an arrow in a bow, or generally preparing any kind of weapon for use.
A weapon must be ready before it can be used.

I am just asking b\c this arm sling would seem to negate the whole issue of drawing\readying for anything pistol-sized (read lightsabers) and allow folks to draw\ready as a Free Action.

It is just a heavy pistol with narrow burst fire only. Dmg is 5 (7 burst). I just needed to call it something, so I went with "autoblaster." It is a ruger thunderbolt from the arsenal book. There may be drawbacks to the armslide as well. It uses my free action. I cant 'drop' it. And I can draw other pistols without an action by using quickdraw. I might argue that I cant quuckdraw with the armslide. There are qualities and MA maneuvers that allow ready weapin as a free action. Also, there are rules to quickdraw non-pistols for extra BP.

I did not attempt this, but I wiuld argue that based on other dual pistol rules, I should be able to use 2 slides in the same free action.

As a followup to the reflexes discussion, I should also point out that the Dm is isung varying levels of reflexes. Matt has a combined 8 passes per turn, where Jish and I have 7.

The extrapasses would likewise allow us to fight against large numbers. 10 rookie stormtroopers might have 10 actions vs. Our 7. Mechanically, This is how Han Solo can chase a whole squad down the corridor.

Ok, I understand the damage. I don't necessarily agree that you can't drop the item, if you read armsling below, it says it "releases" the item into your hand. I don't think it remains attached in any way.

questions:

2 - what is range on the autoblaster, RC, etc?   range penalties (no gun stance), -2 first burst, -5 2nd burst

Ok - what about the other combat modifiers? I assume you are probably right, but the point of the test fights is learning the system..... range? recoil?

range looks medium -1
recoil -2, -5

I am not sure I would agree with that, it sounds like 2 Free Actions, since it takes arm motions or whatever to activate it.  And why even do that, if you can just Quickdraw + Fire them anyways?

I am not sure what your point is about the reflexes?  Yes, I am using different reflex levels on purpose for this test.  I would expect this will often be the case in fights.

I agree about Han Solo vs scrubs. Certainly there will fights like that too!

Sorry, the ruger has a special chamber recoil comp (2), gas vent (2), and custom grip (1). No recoil penalty. You are correct on range. I should have had a -1. So 16 dice; same results in this pass.

Not a complaint, just saying that the baddies won't always have them. So there is still some game ballance in having to "activate."

navyik wrote:

Sure, no problem. Most "monsters" don't have any reflexes either. There will certainly be scrub fights, no doubt. Stormtrooper grunts = orcs

And this is just a test for the mechanics. I wanted to see some guys with cyberware, rifles, heavy armor. I wanted Matt to have multiple characters to run, since Josh has had 2 test fights and you had 1 already.

Back to the action.....

Shivak is up

ok, I'm a little fuzzy on what all has happened (been trying to follow along)...

Shivak summons up his force training and touches the Red trooper's mind...

"I'm am your friend, you must defend me!"

Roll(12d6)+0:

Drain: F ÷ 2 = 2

Roll(12d6)+0:
2,5,5,5,2,3,5,5,1,4,5,6

7 hits... wow!

I think that negates the drain completely?

Ok, a couple things.....

When a magician casts a spell, the player first chooses the Force of the
spell and then rolls her Spellcasting + Magic dice. Other sources of
power (foci, spirit spellcasting aid)

to cast, you roll Spellcasting + your Magic (mana, not adept powers) dice.
you don't roll the Force of the spell

The Force determines 2 things

1) max # of possible hits - in this case a Force of 4 means that the max # hits is 4. you rolled 5 hits, but only 4 actually count

2) Drain - I think you did that correctly, so you have 0 drain

Your roll should have been Spellcasting 6 + Magic (mana) 3 + Focus 2
the great thing about pasting the diceroller, is that we can see which dice belong to which part

Spell casting (6) + Force (4) + Power Focus (2) = 12 Dice:

Roll(12d6)+0:
5,2,1,3,5,6..........,2,2,5,4...............3,6

in a real game, you should reroll, but I haven't been making anyone reroll, so we will just eliminate that last 4 in the 2nd group, to represent 3 dice of Magic instead of 4 dice from Force.  That doesn't change the end result of 5 hits, only 4 of which actually count, with 0 drain

Matt - Trooper Red has a mental compulsion burrowing into his mind

Mental Manipulations: For Mental Manipulation spells, the
caster makes an Opposed Spellcasting + Magic Test against the target’s
Willpower (+ Counterspelling, if available). If the caster scores more hits,
she controls the target as noted in the spell description.

Red Trooper has no Counterspelling.  

Sith Warrior could use Counterspelling as a Free Action, if he were the target, as an interrupt.  Sith Warrior could declare, during his turn, as a Free Action, that he will protect others with his Counterspelling, but that didn't happen in the first IP.

Thanks for the clarification... I thought I might have done that wrong.

Sorry guys, utter chaos here. Jeep went into the shop, started a new job, and heading to Indy to give a presentation tomorrow. Apologies if I am slowing things down, I'll check in again Thursday night.

Red Trooper resists with Willpower
Roll(4d6)+0:

critical glitch!

Red Trooper also suffers the same drain as Shivak, as his feeble mind is overloaded by the spell. drain of 2P, since he has no magic rating

Willpower again
Roll(4d6)+0:
2,1,3,5,+0

1 hit, so Trooper Red also took 1 box of physical damage and is now under the sway of Shivak's suggestion.

Trooper Gold is barely up, but not out

2 hits = 2 extra hexes +3 normal = 5 total

Trooper gold also gets -2 for ranged attack vs. Prone target...

ah prone, good catch.  removing the last 2 dice doesn't affect Gold's roll which Spike barely dodges anyways

Sith Warrior

A rage boils up within him as he watches his flunkies going down.  Sith Warrior uses a wrist sheath, to quick draw his lightsaber (free action). He calls upon the Dark Side to fuel his hatred (Edge).  Sith Warrior will make a running charge attack against Spike.  Sith can move 3 hexes at his normal speed and then will make a Str + Running + Edge -1 wound check, invoking the Rule of 6

Result of the throw of dice "16d6" :

2 + 5 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 2 + 5 + 6 + 5 + 3 + 3 + 5 + 5 + 2 + 6 + 6

10 hits, + 4 sixes to reroll

Result of the throw of dice "4d6" :

5 + 3 + 6 + 3

2 more hits, 1 more 6

Result of the throw of dice "1d6" :

2

so that is 12 hits, for 12 more hexes, +3 for normal running = 15 which I think gets him to Spike

Lightsaber + Agility +2 charging +3 prone +1 wpn focus + 1 reach (like katana) -1 wound

Result of the throw of dice "18d6" :

2 + 2 + 4 + 3 + 6 + 4 + 5 + 3 + 3 + 1 + 5 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 6 + 6

7 hits vs Spike

Spike can roll Reaction + either Wpn Skill (if he had a melee wpn drawn) or dodge or unarmed
-1 to his dice because this is the 2nd attack he has defended against (Trooper Gold)

just a small fix here, since we are testing (otherwise it would stand as my error)

Trooper Gold Reaction, 7 dice -

Result of the throw of dice "7d6" :

6 + 5 + 5 + 4 + 4 + 1 + 6 = 31
4 hits

1st attack had 7 hits - 4 from Gold's reaction roll = 3 hits
base DV is 5 + 2 for narrow burst + 3 net hits = a damage value (DV) of 10p

8 hits

10P - 8 hits from the soak roll = 2 boxes of damage.

[/quote]


Spike's DV is 10P = 5p gun + 2 narrow burst + 3 net hits

pg 149, compare armor

If the attack causes Physical damage, compare the modified
Damage Value to the modified Armor Value. If the DV does not exceed
the Armor, then the attack inflicts Stun rather than Physical damage.

also

pg 153

Narr ow Bursts
Narrow bursts cause more damage to the target. Increase the attack’s DV by +2. Note that
this DV modifier does not apply when comparing the DV to the armor rating.

which means the comparison here is actually 8P vs his armor value of 12

the first hit only caused 3 boxes of stun, not physical damage

The 2nd hit had a whopping DV of 15P damage -2 narrow burst = 13P, which still exceeds hi AV 12 and did in fact cause 7 boxes of P damage.

Gold has 7P and 3S damage, not 10P

Using full defense including GYMNASTICS 2x (+1, +1), Spike rolls away from the raging lunatic with the big red glowing phallus!

10 dice gets him 3 hits

Edge after the fact gets him 4 more dice for a single 6: 1 more hit.

Rule of 6 on that yields a 5.

5 hits total to defend


Armor 7 (or 10 vs. Lasers). Body 5
Either 12 or 15 dice

4 hits or 5 vs. Lasers to soak dmg.

or Gymnastics!  right, I forgot about that option

ok 7 hits on attack roll - 5 hits on defense = 2 net hits

Spike twists and contorts on the ground, but cannot escape the Sith Warrior's Big Red Swartz

Lightsaber is (str/2 + 3) -4AP
same as Katana stats with monofiliment whip AP
str 6\2 + 3 = DV 6P +2 net hits + 2 critical strike adept power = 10P and -4 AP, use the same armor rating as for blasters\bullets, the higher value, but -4, so probably 6 (10-4) armor + 5 body = 11d to soak, if I am reading it right

DV > armor value, so it is physical damage

* full defense uses up Spike's next Complex Action *

ooops! damn rules, another error on my part

When Gold Trooper took 7P of damage, the damage inflicted exceeded his body 5 score

Knockdown
Characters who take damage may be knocked down by the attack. If a
character takes a number of boxes of damage (Stun or Physical) from
a single attack that equal or exceed his Body, then the attack automatically
knocks him down. Characters who take 10 or more boxes of
damage in a single attack are always knocked down.

So Spike's well aimed blast not only hurt Gold, but also should have knocked his butt over!

there is a lot of technical aspects, but I like all these details in combat. armor converting lesser damage to stun, knockdowns, how Edge plays into the game, complex action interrupts, etc

2 total hits is 1 net hit.  Otherwise 1 hit would still deal +1 extra dmg.

Also, I thought crit strike only worked for unarmed combat?

DAMN!
