    Closing range

    If you model a broadsword attack as say a blade strike at M range and a hit with he sword pommel at S range, would you have different damage and CM possibilites?

    Do PCs get enough improvement rolls... and more?

    Thanks for the maths. Anyone care to explain the calculation a little better for the daft?

    Do PCs get enough improvement rolls... and more?

    First of all, thanks for solving the equation. I don't understand it. Second, it was just a theoretical example.

    Treasure rewards, what is fair?

    Coming from the DnD world where gold is the main coinage, I am struggling to find a method to know how much loot to give away during encounters in MRQ2 where the prices are based on silver. Do you go by purchasing power (look at the price of armor in both systems, for example)? Right now I was...

    Closing range

    Really? Why couldn't the bowman use an unarmed attack (kick you) before you get to act? Is it only if you try to close inside the range of the opponent's weapon that you need to use up your combat action to close and the opponent get the free attack? Furthermore: If you are using a broadsword...

    Do PCs get enough improvement rolls... and more?

    Cool. Can you post the solution as well? I had differential equations and statistics about 20 years ago. :oops:

    Closing range

    This whole thing is quite confusing. I would not have thought that if you are trying to close, enemy attacks with his "AOO", you succeed evade and he fails attack, you get a combat maneuver. I thought defensive CM were for parries, not evades. I mean, how would this work if the attacker was...

    Playing a Healer.. how do you get more healing in combat?

    This PC is a member of a cult that is "Life" based, so healing is a focus. What mechanic would you use for the potion making, Divine Enhancements or Alchemy? Also, I thought you could buy a portable shrine but I'll be damned if I can find it now in the core rules or Arms and Equipment. Did I...

    Playing a Healer.. how do you get more healing in combat?

    I'll have to look at this.

    Great idea and great sentiment!

    Do PCs get enough improvement rolls... and more?

    Well, if you start at 50% and have, say, an Int of 10, you start off having a 60% chance of increasing by 1d4+1. It gets worse from there. I guess at the very worst it could take 50 improvement rolls to get to 100%. If you give out 3 per scenario that's ~17 scenarios. Anyone know enough...

    Playing a Healer.. how do you get more healing in combat?

    Hmmm. I guess one point per MP is better than nothing, thanks.

    Playing a Healer.. how do you get more healing in combat?

    ...but there are no common magic spells that actually Heal damage. This is unfortunate for those initiates who want to heal.

    Playing a Healer.. how do you get more healing in combat?

    So one PC wants to be the healer. So he is an initiate in a Cult of the God of Life. The cult needs to be flushed out, but I gave him Vigor, Cauterize, Heal. So from what we saw, if you use Heal you are done. So that is just one Heal a day? Are we doing something wrong here?

    Do PCs get enough improvement rolls... and more?

    Last night we started a new MRQ2 game, the first time for any of us. My players tend to want to do the best they cane with the rules and are big on character advancement. So they are already saying that 3 improvement rolls per session is not enough and that it would take forever to have real...
