i think that it should more be a penalty to defence then a bonus to offense
however
an alternate suggestion is to drop the difficulty of using the weapon as now you have a bigger target

Only some weapons have a difficulty to use, so that wouldnt really be the best bonus for everyone.

I would think that the character being shot at is already at a disadvantage since he wouldnt be able to dodge... I dont know that a bonus or a negative either way would be entirely fair.

Unless the character is caught by surprise (didn't even know he was being attacked/not yet in combat) he/she automatically gets to dodge/parry. If we went by the idea that there is no dodge/parry attempt when back attacked, then Neb cannot attempt to parry, which I thought would be unfair. Thus I thought an attack bonus/defence penalty would be more in order.

I think that I should point out that my character is not Gay :lol:

I ment to type huh, similar to a "Snort in agreement" to Cale's comment about the ship not surviving the battle.

I know. It was just a slip of the tongue. And I did try to make it look more like you were mockingly pretending to be a parental figure.

I am going to post later tonight (around midnight). Tempus was the one who said he wanted to perform another action, and nobody else said they had any intention of doing anything this round, or it probably would have been done by now.

Just for clarfication of the rules before hand. Now that Nagta has thrown a knife at Ka, who has done a full parry, Ka cannot make an attempt to dodge, and he cannot parry a ranged attack without his lightsaber. This is explained in the rulebook on page 90, for those who have access to it. Nagta must beat the difficulty for the range, which is very easy.

The book is available for everyone here in PDF format.

The latest post was a hard one, but I have decided that I will not protect the characters from their fates. That is, above all, the player's job.

Neb. You are not out of the game, but you will have to create a new character. I can write a new character in very soon. The only character restriction is that there can be no more Jedi.

Also, a note to Tempus and Nebuchadnezzar: This incident is finished here. There will be no immediate animosity between a new character and Nagta, or whoever starts such will find themself accidentally falling into a hole with a Sarlaac, or maybe be eaten by a Rancor, I haven't decided that yet. To be fair I will allow you to roll strength vs 100D to see if you survive.

lol

lets see with a 4d str it would take... hmm 162 6's on the wild die to just be stunned... i think that is ample deterent to not pick a fight with a rancor

I just have a quick question. If I get a darkside point for attempting to cut off someone's hand while protecting an innocent person. then how the fuck does Steve not get one for killing me?

WHAT THE FUCK??

**cough**RIGGED**cough**

[PX] Nebuchadnezzar · Sat Mar 05, 2005 11:22 am

one more quick thing for Gray:

Avenge my death!

that is all :lol:

I had considered that someone would make an attack of opportunity when someone was in a position from which they could not react. I also recall telling Steve that in defending himself he would not get a darkside point. I will, however, be giving a darkside point for this action. It was not technically a defensive action, and was an attack of opportunity against a defenseless character. Steve asked me if he would get a darkside point for attacking a character who had been wounded and was prone, and I said yes, as it is not self defence. I believe that the same is true of this situation.

I am, however, open to the possibility of a miraculous recovery, should Ka have a sudden revelation from the force and seek to make peace with Nagta. (And if Nagta doesn't reciprocate there may be an "accident")

I am unfamiliar with role-playing etiquette in such situations, and input from you guys would be helpful. I only want the game to continue without such complications. Ghost and Ironfist, your opinions on this situation would be very much appreciated.

Nik save you are kill him?? I was going to save you but i can only do one or the other..

[PX] Nebuchadnezzar · Sat Mar 05, 2005 12:39 pm

save me I guess, but if I do come back to life, all I really want is my saber back, and a darkside point or 2 for Steve.

don't get me wrong though, I still feel darkside points (emphasis on plural) are necissary)

Tempus · Post by **Tempus** » Sat Mar 05, 2005 2:22 pm

your sabre is mine now and ya aint getting it back :lol:

as for the DP shawn it is your call i'll take one without complaint as i can understand that he was helpless (though in my defense i was left with few options)
however 2 i think would be extreme
