    WOIN N.O.W Natural Soak and Environmental effects

    That was what I assumed. Would that mean e.g getting splashed with lava from a burst from a magma river would also be soakable? Furthermore, would that also mean that having the 5 points of soak would make one immune e.g the Conditions from Heat or Radiation (as both damage types can be soaked)...

    WOIN N.O.W Natural Soak and Environmental effects

    Greetings. I am here with a question regarding how Natural Soak interacts with the different types of environments. As N.O.W states " Note that 5 points of cold Soak, such as that from protective gear, protects from cold." p.162. Would Natural soak also count here? The same regarding the...

    WOIN N.E.W Cybernetics and Mechanoids

    Thank you for your answers. MacD. I would place a heavy focus on what it does to the personality of the player. Sad to hear about how he acts like a single player. I personally read it the same way you do. easl. I do love the first option presented with the idea of making it take a nontrivial...

    WOIN N.E.W Cybernetics and Mechanoids

    Thank you very much for the clarification. It has not come up in our game yet, but it was something I was wondering about :) While on the topic of Androids. The exploit "Memory Wipe" would the android have to use it when it took the exploit, or does it simply allow it the ability to do so? And...

    WOIN N.E.W Cybernetics and Mechanoids

    Indeed. I have read through it, and it is quite a large list, not with all the options available that there are to the robots within the bestiary. There is also a distinct lack of cybernetic equivalent options there. E.g Skill chips, Psionic Scrambler, etc. Furthermore, there is a distinct...

    WOIN N.E.W Cybernetics and Mechanoids

    Greetings. I am back with yet another question regarding this wonderful system. Can any of the robotic/mechanoid races gain cybernetics or the equivalent? Alternately, if they cannot, could they then theoretically upgrade in the same fashion as a player would upgrade a robot they own? by buying...

    WOIN Changeling and Cybernetics

    Greetings. I am back with yet another question regarding the wonderful system that is N.E.W How does cybernetics work with regards to shapeshifting races, such as the changeling? Can they get cybernetics as normal? What happens to the cybernetics if they shape change? Could they get 4...

    WOIN Defense Cap

    So essentially it would be calculated like this: Grade 5 character. Attribute:Agility(3d6)+Skill:Shield(1d6)+2(medium Shied)+1d6(High Quality Shield)+2(Size: Small)-(medium Armor -2, reduced to 0 from 3 ranks in Armor: Medium)+2(Exploit Shield bearer) Capped...

    WOIN Defense Cap

    So the Maximum on the Defense Dice pool is the same as any other dice pool? Then what is the point of writing the whole "your Defense scores cannot exceed this number" Line? Because it appears as though this is what is causing the confusion.

    Will do. Thank you :)

    WOIN Defense Cap

    Write out an example for the Defense pool that covers an example of the different possible variables. With a clear marking of what is part of the maximum defence (4x Grade) thus giving a clear idea of what counts as part of the capped pool, and what doesn't. As this page: WOIN - Capping Your...

    WOIN Defense Cap

    In that case Morrus, Would it be possible to get you to write out an example containing Attribute+Skill+Equipment(e.g Shield)-Equipment(armour)+Equipment Quality+Size+a random exploit that fits and illustrate where the Max Cap is, and which parts come after So we have it directly written from...

    WOIN Defense Cap

    Perfect. Thank you very much for clarifying this, this has helped immensely on my lack of understanding. Also, a random note, in the Old 1.2. I do not know if it is on purpose, but the book switches back and forth from defence to defense.

    WOIN Defense Cap

    Indeed, and I do apologise, it was a Random example to illustrate my question. I could also have used one exploit in the example. Also, is it applicable in N.O.W and N.E.W as well? Thank you for elaborating as you have.

    WOIN Defense Cap

    So to specify completely, the cap "Multiply your maximum dice pool by 4; your Defense scores cannot exceed this number. " Only covers: Attribute+Gear(Quality)+Skill+Size. And then once that is capped (grade x4) Exploits are add. So theoretically one could have a Mental Defence of 29 at Grade 5...

    WOIN Defense Cap

    Does that also count when the Defence specifically states the "Multiply your maximum dice pool by 4; your Defense scores cannot exceed this number." " Or are the exploits applied after this sentence?

    WOIN Defense Cap

    Greetings, I am back with yet another question that I wish to obtain some clarification regarding. Regarding defense In WOIN O.L.D 1.2, page 67: "If the final score is less than 10, increase it to 10. Your Defense score is capped by your maximum dice pool. Multiply your maximum dice pool by 4...
