Updates all done, Updated Ivor AGES AGO! Just now made that adjustment you PM'd me about.

Still reading...

So many links to so many more threads... I literally have 16 tabs open right now to keep track of things I need to finish reading up on. And that includes a few tabs hovering over posts with yet more links to FYIs I need to also get caught up on.

God damned I missed you guys.

Ok, I finally finished. That was a long haul slog. It is good to be caught up.

CB, that feeling is strictly one-way, but yeah thanks.

In case you missed it: Site downtime is scheduled this weekend.

Guys, so sorry to be a downer but I am really swamped at work! I don't know if you're following the Absences thread but like I said over there I'm sorry I haven't been around. I'm reading Episode 2 right now...hope to be able to fire off a short post tomorrow maybe.

Is anyone else as excited to be playing with Keanu Reeves as I am?

"I know Kung fu"

Heads up, Bryn Multiclassed into monk!

Bryny Utah

What do you get when you throw Ox's character into the water?

Saltwater Bryn.

Bryn has been known to drink salt water from time to time.

Also, don't fuck with his dog.

Edit: I've missed you CB, welcome back.

Housekeeping

Added a new section for storing old inactive threads, Archives and Storage.
Trying to keep down the clutter and limit the number of Threads on the main screen.

Spoke with X on Monday. He has gotten waylaid with extra work tasks over the weekend and this week, is trying to break free. Hopefully he can get on soon.

I'll let the R1 progress develop today. I think there are some inputs that can come in from Kray and Thorn. We'll see where we are at the end of the night or tomorrow morning. We'll press on to end R1 and move to R2 one way or another.

Damn, it feels good to be back (for the time being). Good luck with RL obligations, everyone. No, not really - we all should drop that shit and just play RPG's 'round the clock!

A true Canadian apology to all for being MIA for so long.

Good lord, Episode 2 is straight into the fireworks! Looking great so far, everyone. Especially the amazing wordplay from Maeriks...

Ranged attacks against Prone targets are made at Disadvantage, are they not?

Yep

Alright. I hear all of this. Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF): I'll accept it strictly for the sake of always erring on the side of the players.

But you are going to have to listen to my counterpoint appeal to the reality of what is going on.

That shot was taken from higher ground, firing at a downward angle at a guy that just got knocked off his feet, at a range of 15 meters max.

I've shot at my fair share of people and big game animals in my day, and I know this is true: it is easier to hit them if you are higher up in the air and they are lying down on their back.

Contrarily, this rule says that's not an easier shot, that's not even a normal shot, but that's a MORE DIFFICULT shot?! Simply not true.

That range Disadvantage rule is for same plane line of sight, where you cut off the angle for the shooter on the same level as you, making yourself a smaller target.

But I'm fine with the adjustment. Ez, there are 2 rolls there. Instead of taking the higher one, take the lower one. You can change any results or follow on as necessary if applicable.
