[OOC] Sudden Payback

It seems I just bungle all rolls lol

If it makes you feel better the rookie cop caused more fatalities then the group will likely see in one action than I would care to admit...

Yeah, really I think we're a charmingly bungling group. I'm expressly built for combat, but did nothing but whiff the last time. It's one of the delightful things about playing Big Damn Heroes when most of the challenges come down to die rolls.

Thought Marv was the only charming person. Oddly enough the rookie cop I think is the natural deceptive one of the group also...

This is a test. It seems like every time I edit a post to add in a boost or a setback, it almost always comes up blank. So let's try a made-up roll...

OK, now adding some boosts and setbacks after the fact...

Meh. Maybe it's my imagination.

Does it still switch out player for ic pc post?

Yeah, if I edit a player's post, the software removes their character avatar and replaces it with the player's avatar. Annoying, but I suspect it's because I don't have authority to post as the character.

The boost was for my Dueling talent that gives me a free boost any time I'm fighting 1v1.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. Yeah, that makes sense and won't cost you the 2 strain. Nice talent!

By the way, happy April! +5 XP to all of you. Feel free to bank it, but please let me know what you spend it on if you do.

Banking for the K9 Unit Talent. =d

Saving up for Joint Submission unarmed attack so I'm better at dealing with people after I use Takedown.

Maybe I should get a baton and disorient people for you to speartackle into a submission move, If they run my K9 can chase them down while we drive behind in the car and eat snacks... Thanks for driving Hank.

Also remember that Grappling someone till you have a Superior position over them gives you bonuses to Striking attacks on them. Since Grappling is so much harder (since it's opposed), I'm getting the impression that it's intended to pair with Striking to some extent by making your checks easier once you successfully get someone in your grasp.

I'm kinda torn here. We dragged Bosko into this place, and all he's done so far is try to get away from me. I don't want to let him go and have him attack us, but I also don't want to be a real jerk and beat the crap out of him for no good reason.

But an upgraded attack from superior positioning is very tempting...

LOL. Keep in mind that he's had nothing but trouble from y'all since you met him. He just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. If his pools have been any indication, he has no combat prowess whatsoever. But do what Hank would do. :)

Ha! Fair enough. As much as it's fun to roll a ton of dice, Hank isn't the kind of guy to cram a kid in his locker just because he fits.

Ok I altered my post and added the opposed dice. I don't know what the Ks stand for, as no dice names or colors start with K :-(

K is for black b is for blue, max still has the burner phone btw.
