My fire mage has to wear gauntlets to stop setting everything they touch on fire. Next grade they get flaming aura and the fun really starts (not a good idea to startle them)

Hi all, My high grade fire mage wants a mount but is afraid that they will accidentally incinerate a flesh-and-blood horse. Their solution is to make a statue of a horse then animate it. If I have a stone statue of a horse and want to make an animated stone horse I’m assuming I use the...

Hello hive mind (and Morrus) In OLD I’m wondering whether Abdure Metal (withstanding) would provide soak verses swords etc. what do people think?

Hello WOIN brains trust. I have a question about the elemental touch enhancement of the infuse magical skill. if I infuse a sword with fire, does it now do just fire damage or does it now do slashing/fire damage?

Is there any restriction on the size of shield a character can wield? Can a medium sized character use a large shield or a small sized character for that matter?

Yeah I should have mentioned that it it only accurate to +/- 1%. But rolling 22 on 10d6 is closer to 100% than 99% once you take into account an auto success from three sixes

For my own game I have created a handy chart which lists the probabilities of success for the various number of dice and difficulties (inclusive of the chance of rolling triple sixes). Would other people find this useful? and if so, where can I upload it?

I thought that was odd too

I'm wondering if you can use the Focus Exploit with spells that have a casting time of longer than 1 action. I can see arguments either way. what do people think? (and does Morrus have an official call?)

When trading dice pool dice for extra damage and using an area attack such as the battle mage’s artillery exploit, does the extra damage dice apply to all targets?

Imagine that three strong character (STR 10) of grade 5 are trying to move a boulder. If one of them pushes it they would roll 4d. If two of them try they have an effective STR of 20 so will roll 5d. My question is what happens when three of them work together to push the boulder. they would...
