@Alepous I believe Agility is the same as Dexterity. But since all your attributes are d8, it doesn't matter that much! Roll d8+d8 :)

It should be Dexterity on your sheet, if that's what you're asking.
Before I put my post up, I wonder if we can study the enemies? Also, will we use superiority point or blitz rules for combat? :o

That's correct. The character sheet form that I swiped lists Agility as Dexterity. They're the same Attribute functionally. Since you picked the 'Jack of All Trades' spread everything will be a d8 roll (unless somehow modified by external means; AKA Equipment, Magic, Status effects, etc...)

You'd take the [Study] Action as your main activity for the turn (instead if Attack, etc.), make an Open Roll of [INSP]+[INSP] vs. a DC of 7 (pretty low DC but Goblins are common monsters in the game). A roll of 7+ reveals information about them such as Max HP/MP, attacks, spells, vulnerabilities/resistances, etc. depending how high you roll.

I think for the opening combat, we should keep things simple and see how things flow in PbP at a basic level but I'd be open to including the Superiority Point system or Blitz Combat as an additional layer once everyone feels comfortable with the flow of combat.

My starting weapons are Bronze Cutlass and Wheelock Pistol. Can I use either of those? I assume the pistol will be [Agility] + [Inspiration]? I'm not sure what the rolls are for the cutlass, however.

The Wheelock Pistol is [Agility]+[INSP], Damage: [HR]+8 - [Ranged]

Bronze Cutlass is [Agility]+[INSP]+1, Damage: [HR] +6

Either weapon is definitely able to be used.

Atalanta isn't attacking this turn, as I am pretty sure the limit is one major action a turn and Laughing Taunt is listed as one because it is a [Skill]. Otherwise Atalanta would dodge to, because she wants to draw agro and counter-attack.

That's correct, you're limited to one Major Action during a turn ( Attack, Dodge, Guard, Inventory, Skill Use, etc...), a Move Action and any Free Actions that may occur.

I suppose I will have to spend my action to recover my katana?
Jun 5, 2024 5:05 pm
Yes. Mechanically, it'd break down to a Move Action + an Inventory Action. Both can occur within a single round.

Does anyone need assistance with finding an Avatar image for their character? I've got a few in the library I stored up for this game but I also gave MidJourney for more specific requests.

Also, as soon as Fren and Atalanta post their moves I'll use the combat round along to it's probable conclusion.

I did the support buff. I need to do something else? Am I missing something?

@Alepous It's the second round so you get to act again.
Jun 10, 2024 2:18 pm
@Alepous Holy Hit is cast as a Free Action to accompany a melee attack. I don't see a roll for a hit on the Goblin Boss.
Jun 10, 2024 4:38 pm
Oh, I thought it is a full action. Let me fix it.

Ok, so... Dan Whooper has been AWOL from GP and this game for a couple of weeks so I booted him from the game. I'll autopilot his character for a bit but I'd like to ask you all whether you're happy with the number of players we have currently or whether you'd like me to advertise for a couple of openings. Some people prefer a smaller number of players, some a larger number. I'm having a blast with you all but I figured I'd pick your brains on how you feel about things thus far.

I am down with what the rest want.

I don't mind having another player, the party can be more diverse that way. Now would still be a good time to recruit since the story has only started.
Jun 11, 2024 9:21 am
If we can another player, that would be great, but I'm okay with this core four party as well. :)
Jun 11, 2024 3:14 pm
I agree with the general consensus of being good either way. :P
Jun 11, 2024 4:20 pm
Hello everyone, it's the new guy here! It's midnight where I am right now so I probably won't be around again until I get some sleep, so see you in a few hours, but very excited to play Fabula Ultima with everyone :D
