Black Cohort Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 sorry, I will update in a few minutes, this close to holidays my time is limited. Mazer Rackham, Machine God and Lysimachus 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient_Sobek Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 So sorry I have been absent, life has been overwhelming. Finally have a few days off so I will try and get caught up.

Lysimachus Posted December 24, 2021 Author Share Posted December 24, 2021 @BC: Thanks, I've added that to the BA summary post! Â @Sobek: awesome to see you, definitely some interesting stuff been happening for Beta, and Radago in particular! If you'd like to add any fluff for his Actions please do? Just an idea, but now they're safely back on the ship, I guess that could take the form of a flashback or something...? Â Â @All: In general, I just wanted to ask everyone, is the next week or so a good time for gaming or a bad time for gaming? I'm happy to keep going, but if it's a busy time for the majority, I'm cool with taking the holiday period off and coming back to it once we're into the new year?

Mazer Rackham Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I'll roll/role with the group. No problemo.  @Sobek - I'm glad to see you about chap, hope that you're doing alright despite the madness - life comes first mate, so don't sweat it about us. Trokair, Lysimachus and Ancient_Sobek 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trokair Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 While I will be busy for some days I should be around enough for the game to continue if that works for everybody else.   Don’t worry Sobek, life’s life. Glad to hear you have a little break to recuperate in. Ancient_Sobek, Lysimachus and Mazer Rackham 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machine God Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 @Lysimachus - in the Deathwatch Living Errata - Unrelenting Destruction changes to + 1d5 MAG Damage per attack. I only rolled enough for an extra 1 MAG. Lysimachus 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysimachus Posted December 24, 2021 Author Share Posted December 24, 2021 Well spotted, I was still using crb - will edit! Â Also, working on the next few Sisters' Actions. Machine God and Necronaut 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 (edited) What kind of roll would be required to yank one of the Retributors off the edge? Â Or, if I can charge and use Wrathful Descent like normal, I can use any throwing shenanigans to justify the effects of that. Â I do feel like Wrathful descent might be a bit unbalanced against hordes this small/elite.

Commissar Molotov Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 If possible, please can we have an updated map so we can visualise what you describe? Particularly with regards to the Repentia movement. Â It's also useful if you can paste the turn sequence so we understand who's still to go when deciding whether to use our dodges.

Lysimachus Posted December 25, 2021 Author Share Posted December 25, 2021 @Beren: Yep, I reckon perhaps a regular Charge and Wrathful Descent might be simpler ruleswise, but definitely chucking people over narratively! Â Yep, it's got great potential Wrathful Descent, but also potential to do not much... I always thought I'd actually prefer it to be 1d5 +2 or something, not quite as killy but guaranteed to do at least a few? If you'd rather do that instead I'm fine with it, or if you'd rather stick to the d10 that's fine too! Â @Mol: Yep, no problem, I'll work on it later today, if Svelk does choose to Charge the Retributors (might be a good move to stop them shooting next turn?) I can move us right up to Decimus and you can see if you'd rather use the Dodge somewhere else? There are the 2 other Paragon Suits and the 2 Stormbolters on the Rhinos and the Seraphim to go, plus Decimus although he is Engaged so can only take Melee Actions at the moment.

Machine God Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 Two bad rolls for Draak. What effects does being 'On Fire' do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazer Rackham Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 You have sealed armour, so you can make actions normally, otherwise you would have to run around and scream. When your turn comes around, you may try to put the fire out as a Full Action on a -20 Ag Test  Until you do, you take 1D10 Energy damage (no reduction for armour, since you're being cooked alive) and take 1 Level of Fatigue.  Fatigue isn't a huge problem for you yet, nor is the heat, but it can chip away at you, so sooner rather than later.

Draak has The Flesh is Weak(3) which gives the Machine Trait and the armour points given can be used against fire.

Lysimachus Posted December 25, 2021 Author Share Posted December 25, 2021 Ok, I've added Actions up to the end of the Round, with the exception of Svelk and Decimus, so Mol, you're free to use your Dodge on the Hit that actually wounded! :D Â Will add a new map showing all the changes at the top of Round 2. Â @MG: As Mazer said its a Full Action to stop, drop and roll. However, given the cold and snow all over the place I'll be waiving the -20 on the Ag Test.

Â I'll use your value for this fight, I don't really want to accidentally wipe a whole one of their squads in one go by accident (my recent Delta Green experience has told me that dice cannot be counted upon to be reasonable.)

Beren Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 See what I meant about te dice not being reasonable (I also assumed when writing that I didn't actually manage to also somehow kill the hord members on the other side of the bridge).

Lysimachus Posted December 25, 2021 Author Share Posted December 25, 2021 (edited) Very nice! Don't forget you do an extra Hit for every 2 DoS against a Horde so you've got a couple more there! (crb.360, Melee) Â And yep, the Retributors are one Horde so you can potentially damage both sides, so for future Rounds, you are in CC with all of them (narratively it's only a few metres to jump across) Â 2nd edit: double derp, I just understood what you've been talking about.. remember each Sister shown on the map represents 3 Mag of a Horde, so although you've killed 8 Mag that's only 2 and 2/3 of actual Sisters! ;) Â Edit: And derp, just remembered Hordes can't Dodge or be Dodged, so no one needs to roll for those!
