Thanks for the update, and as Windyridge said, no worries at all! It is hard to GM these games if you don't allow yourself some downtime to deal with real-life stuff from time to time. :-)

No worries! Rest and be well

A few more rules questions:

- Both the main stat die and the magic die are open ended and can explode (to use the Savage Worlds term here), right?

- When you roll for magic, you ADD the stat die and magic die results together (not taking the better die only), right?

- Outside of combat, players are the only ones who roll dice; NPCs and opponents and the GM doesn't really except in combat where you're doing opposed rolls?

As fare as I understand, yes

I am absolutely loving the narratives this game system produces! I love the tissue paper in odd places outcome. :-)

Yes that's wonderful!

What do you want the order of operations to be?

Players type up a magical effect we wish to happen.
DM gives us DC for roll and what ability to use.
Player rolls
DM explains what happens


Is that right?

According to the rules, yes... But since we are all adults, and this is PBP I would like to make a small ajustment for the sake of effenciy:

Players type up a magical effect we wish to happen.
Players look up to stat and target number
Player rolls
DM explains what happens

IF DM for some reason disagree with the player determined stat and target number, we will discuss it :)

And I assume that you will not edit the target number after seeing the roll

Is there a way for you to add those two tables to the area by Dot?
(I don't know what it is called)

I don't mind looking up the tables where they are already posted, but to answer Smiley's comment, here is a thread that talks about a hack to add 'Player Handouts': https://gamersplane.com/forums/thread/25324/?p=1179318#p1179318

I like that! Will keep things moving.

Thank you. I need to take a look at this myself.

A perhaps simpler approach which players can control is if you go in and click the pencil 'Edit' button on your character sheet, and you can add any content you like to your character sheet. Easy thing is to do is to add content to the very bottom, e.g. screenshots of rule references and add images to the bottom of the character sheet. Or add links to the cheat sheet post.

This is what I do. Easy peasy. 😁

Here's the BBCode you can add (I put mine on the top of my character sheet):

So you just right-mouse click to open a new tab with the rules reference.

Mulling over some of the rules -- I see that there is the possibility to target 'Permanent' as the duration of a spell. Under the 'Grit' description is says you can use Grit (p. 21) to cancel spells "Common spells include blocking your mind from being peered into, dispelling magic that’s already been cast, or healing someone who has been hurt."

So let's say a spell was cast with a Difficulty of 19. For the person who cast it to dispell that same spell, would the difficulty also be 19? And I wonder what the Difficulty would be for another person to dispell it (another wizard could have more experience with that specific spell so maybe their Difficulty is specific to them?
