Let's talk about your characters

Oh, sorry.

Thanks :)

Well, that was worth asking xD

I'd just like clarification, because 3+3+6 makes 12 and it also says there are 10 remaining and 3 out for the turn. The numbers don't seem to line up, and i want to be extra sure before i roll and post.

Thanks for the warning, and mea culpa.

I updated my post after recalculating all the people, it should be better.

Here's a record of the battle so far (just made it, and i think i will keep that format to keep notes on battles ...)

Blue are the allies, black are the opponents.
Red are dead, purple are KO, and green are out for 1 turn.

thank you for clarifying that.
Rolling for combat

@Gurthor: Kawanabi succeeded his roll, i don't know if that changes anything on your post.

Well I thought the difficulty was 18, so with a 15 he probably hits with his arrow and manages to stop the subsequent attack (I had left it hanging to allow you to have him get injured). Is that all right? Does he kill the attacker with his arrow?

Yes he does

Right, I'll edit my previous then

Just out of curiosity, the free invoke for my Aspect. Is it per scene? Per day? Per adventure?

It depends on the situation. Sometimes, it is because you have discover a new Aspect on some elements of the scene, sometimes, you will have work to make it happen. I consider here is that case. Thay's how you can gain those free invokes.

The use, though, is unitary, it's like you have 1 free point to spend on that Aspect, for the current scene.

GM's Intervention, please do not answer more on the IG topic until some clarifications.
Can you tell me where that affirmation comes from, Varian, please ?

I don't remember Itsumi mentioning that to Inara, but maybe i'm missing something here.

Pre-game briefing with you, unless I am terribly mistaken. That was info I received from the Council. If that is not correct, I will edit my response accordingly.

Varian has changed her text following the discussion we had this night.

Given eyeofskadi has already answered, i suppose the next time i need to stop the RP, i'll have to lock the topic. No problem for me.

We can go again.

Thanks.

I believe we've all had a turn though, so you're up delio!

I know, my turn, i'll look for the answer :)

Sorry for the confusion, guys. My bad, I got a bit of ooc (for me) info I picked up from Itsumi's thoughts mixed up with what I know from the Council. But the records of that are in my personal subforum, which is still missing.

But we worked it out. :-) Thanks for your patience, Delio. Looking forward to the next round.

I feel like there is some misunderstanding on both our parts here.
From my perspective, Itsumi is not waiting for reports. He planned a coordinated pre-dawn raid/attack on the Lion clan that he was/is going to lead and thus needs to leave now.

Or am i not in charge of troops directly but of this city/town Shiro Daidoji?

Both, actually, for that night at least. And your own troops all the time.

For what i remember, you had some reports talking about strange fighting sounds coming from the village AND the direction of the area where you will be supposed to stay before ambushing the Lion's army.

Given that area is, for the tactic of the next day, a crucial aspect of the strategy put in place, there is too much risk if this area is compromised by the Lion.

In fact, and again, if memory serves, Itsumi sent scouts to determine the origin of the reported battle sounds.

A little precision for Kalajel, i just read your post.

The peasant who greeted Suzume and Sakura are elders of the village, above 40 years old, and you have seen no other than them when you arrived.

The ones who attacked during the night were younger, between 25 and 35 years old.
