Oh, you will know they are here just as soon as they attack with their first initiative slots. ;-)

Ok, so where are they located? whats the layout? are they close together or spread apart, are we close together?

How far does the light of the fusion lantern reach? When will they not be in darkness?

The ones who just threw the bolas are pretty close together. The other two groups are on either side of them further apart.
Once they enter within short range the fusion lantern will come into effect.

I'd like to use my maneuver to get my Luma flare launcher out, and use my action to fire it into the air illuminating the area. What roll should I use?

[ +- ] Luma Flare
Features: As an action, make an Easy Gunnery check to launch flare into air to provide light. Success illuminates out to long range. Failure illuminates ground to short range. Luma flares are rocket propelled illumination devices commonly used by both militaries and survivalists. Luma flares excel at illuminating dark areas, as their detonation spreads a luminous compound over a wide blast area. They are also popular as signaling devices, especially when used to attract the attention of search and rescue teams.
Each luma flare is a self contained device with limited guidance capability. The flare's simple controls allow the user to guide its rough trajectory, as well as to adjust the blast's detonation point based on the desired altitude. A safety is included, which generally precents the flare from igniting before the rocket reaches its destination.
As an action, a character may make an Easy (DI) Gunnery check to launch a luma flare into the air to provide light. Uf he succeeds and the flare has room to travel into the air, he flare completely illuminates an area out to long range from the location it was fired. If he fails or does not have room to fire it, the flare still ignites, but does not travel into the air. Instead it remainds at ground level, illuminating an area out to short range. Whether he succeeds or fails, the flare's illumination continues for five rounds, after which time it burns out.
Though Luma flares are not designed as weapons, creative characters can nonetheless use them as such. They are extremely hard to aim, but the mere prospect of being struck with one will cause many foes to reconsider attacking. They have the following profile as a weapon: luma flare (Gunnery) Damage 6, Critical 3, Range Long, Blast 4, Burn 4, Disorient 2, Inaccurate 2, Prepare 2, Limited Ammo 1.

That would be a simple Gunnery check. I assume the lantern is on around you so no setback.

OOC:
so now that NPC group 1 and 2 are both in the light, and short range, what is the difficulty to hit them? Also how would I know this infor for next time or is it different every encounter?May 22, 2018 1:14 am
It all depends on where the enemy is. Short Range is one purple die, Medium Range is two, Long is three.

OOC:
so with an encumbrance 2, at short range the 1 purple becomes a red, and then add 1 purple?May 22, 2018 2:05 am
OOC:
I got home after work and read my EOtE manual page 155 about my weapons Cumbersome trait. It says for each point of Brawn the character is deficient he must increase the difficulty of all checks made while using the weapon by 1I checked this against the "Upgrade versus Increase" Side bar on page 22 which says that increasing difficulty is just adding more purple die, not upgrading to red die.
So to answer my own question I should roll against 1 purple die for short range plus 2 more purple die for a cumbersome weapon.

Just to clarify in case there is confusion, all the NPCs have gone leaving the remaining slots left to the PCs.

I had to figure that out before I rolled. It was a little confusing and I just scribbled some notes on paper while I reread the posts. Something that helped while I took notes was merely assigning the groups a number 1 through 4, and I could track with the action better. By my count groups 3 and 4 are dead and group 2 has 1 wounded.

Hey guys. Just realized this forum isn’t showing new posts correctly. I’ll get a juicy IC post in early tomorrow (for me. It might already be tomorrow for some of you)

Make sure you subscribe to the threads so they email you when there is new content.

Bardo did say he was going to get a post in soon. If isn't able to get one in I might have to skip him to keep the game going. I know weekends aren't the best for him. If you want to go @somebox you can.
