A Knocking Afar

[Machine God]

IIRC they are in the Combat section, only Pistols and Melee Weapons can be used in close quarters combat.

In addition to Mike’s comment about extra hits I just wanted to point out that on hit 2 you rolled a natural 10 on the D10, and this triggers Righteous Fury (see p 195 of the DH rulebook). Essentially think of this of a ‘Crit’ in that it allows you to add an extra D10 damage if you can successfully roll another WS or BaS (as appropriate) Check. The extra roll has all the same modifiers as your initial attack so in this case you would need to roll equal or less than 64 on a D100 to get the extra damage.

 

I don’t think I can justify the extra hits hitting the other Ur-ghul in this combat due to relative location and Saoirse’s phantom is also in the way.  This dose however mean that even if the Ur-ghul dodges one hit the other three will kill it, so consider it dead.

 

 

@Black Cohort next, and then surviving ghuls can have a go...

 

Thanks! Even if they're dead regardless I went ahead and added the hits for practice. No Righteous Fury this time but pretty happy.

Session 1  Player Rewards

 

All Players may choose one of these two options:

• One simple characteristic advance of your choice (add +5 to any one stat and mark the simple advance in the first little box below said stat on your sheet)
• Upgrade one Trained Skill to the +10 version

 

Individual Player Rewards

 

Each player may then make one choice from the option presented for them below.

 

A quick note, as Evil Eye was unfortunately not able to play the team is a little unbalanced on the ranged vs melee capabilities, even with Saoirse pet phantom. As such, out of the aspects available, Dire Avengers and Wrap Spiders madke the most sense to go hybrid ranged/melee. As such in addition to the planed rewards Mike Zulu and A.T. will have the option to take a Diresword/Arm Mounted Power Blades (respectively) as a reward instead. If you do take the weapon then my thinking is that your Exarch has recently started training you in the aspects melee weapon of choice and you had packed said weapon, but in the immediate aftermath of the crash you did not have chance to retrieve it from the Featherflight hold, but now you have.

 

Ialandranth Veilseeker

• Exotic Wepaon Training (Arm Mounted Power Blades) + 1 set of Arm Mounted Power Blades
  Arm Mounted Power Blades: Melee, Damage 1d10 + 10, Pen 6, Balanced, Power Field
• Forsight
• Sprint

 

Ialathial Duskstrider  

• Exotic Wepaon Training (Diresword) + 1 Diresword
  Direwsord: Melee, Damage 1d10 + 3, Pen 6 Balanced. Grants +10 to WS tests when using it. This weapon is immune to the effect of Powerfields (so no one with a power weapon can break your sword when they parry you).
• Combat Master
• Double Team

 

Kelman Orach

• Sharpshooter (essentially upgrading your Deadeye Shot)
• Rapid Reaction

 

Saoirse Firebright

• Lightning Reflexes
• Assassin's Strike

 

Venkarryn

I know which player is which, honest ....

[Mazer Rackham]

Much obliged, GM.

 

I choose you,  Pikachu  er:

I assume that Ialandranth and Ialathial are the wrong way around it that list :p

[Mike Zulu]

Neat, I will take the Diresword.

I will also add +5 to Toughness.

[A.T.]

Going to have to be agility and the blades for Ialandranth.

[Mazer Rackham]

Does anyone have any suggestions on the question asked for the purposes of Augury?

 

EDIT: And not a suggestion by some wag like: 'Who will win the 3;30 at Kempton?', or 'What's next week's winning Lotto numbers?'

[Trokair]

The obvious follow up to Ialandranth's question would be 'Who also treads our path?' or something along those lines, but it is not for me to say on this or otherwise until the dice consent.

I agree - I was just hanging fire in case someone else had a better idea...!

[Mazer Rackham]

Since nobody has chimed in on this, I'll roll it up and post shortly.

[Mazer Rackham]

Well played.

To be honest I have no idea if that is worth of a 6 DoS Augary or not. 

[Mazer Rackham]

Don't sweat it, GM, there's a decent bit to go at there, and the memery above is firmly tongue-in-cheek.

 

I'm just glad I didn't blow us all up with a greater daemon..!
