Hey, it gets you to the front yard! :) (Normally need Mediocre(0) to move 1 zone, but +1 for barrier [door]) = Fair (+1) to move to front yard). So roll me an Alertness to see what you see. (Juno, too, but I think that's it for now.)

Normally it would be footrace, and if you win you'd tackle him. But, the ghoul will be to his destination next round so it would seem a bit unnecessary to play that out. So this particular thing will be a bit wonky, I admit. Sounds good. Roll an Athletics check to see how far you can get...

I'm having issues with Invisible Castle where I can't log in. Not sure what is causing this, does anyone else have that problem? If you can log in, just do your rolls under Burned Circle campaign and I can easily look them up, otherwise use your character's full name and I'll search by that...

I found this amazing thread on stack exchange. 4d3-8 gives the same distribution as 4df. We can use Invisible Castle with the "Burned Circle" campaign name and use that. I did some testing on Invisible Castle and it looks good, although I've forgotten my login information, which is annoying...

Looks like ENWorld is back up! Unfortunately, we've lost some functionality due to code being lost. I feel terrible for Morrus on that. We'll have to make do without the die roller. I'll collect up where we are and get things going again. Check in please so I know you're back. I'd like to pick...

You're inside with Mara, but the fleeing ghoul is pretty obvious. The door between the back yard and inside is wide open, and it's a large sliding glass door, so Logan would have high visibility from inside the duplex. I'm occasionally getting lost as well. It might be worth it not to start up...

Just as a note, I've been going under the assumption that Juno and Malcom are chasing after the ghoul they've been fighting. To answer your question about tackling, you basically have to wait for the opponent to stop running. There's no sprinting tackle option. A sprint means you can't perform...

In that case, you wouldn't need an Athletics check, right? You're moving from B to C as a supplemental action and casting a spell (-1 penalty) at the ghoul in zone E. The ghoul is looking bad, so most likely this will take him out as the ghouls are not using severe or higher consequences (they...

Shayuri You can move pretty much wherever you want! Bluedevil You can catch up to the ghoul, but it is my understanding that when sprinting you can't take another action.

Sorry for the delay, I was travelling for Thanksgiving. Yeah, I was expecting more really. Yep! To quote the book: "Sometimesthere’s confusion about when to use Athletics and when to use Might. As a rule of thumb, Athletics is used to move yourself, while Might is used to move other things...

In case anyone is interested, Jim Butcher just did an AMA over on reddit. Lots of spoilers for pre-Cold Days books, but some very interesting stuff is in there and a few moments where I dropped my jaw.

Should have spelled that out, yes.

The ghoul on the inside has had about enough of the beating he's taking! He's going to try to beat it. When the second ghoul sees the first one, pretty heavily injured, running, he'll join him. There are no blocks on the back door, so Ghoul #1 is free to take action to run away. Ghouls have...

The rebutted ghoul inside with Juno and Malcom looks a bit more hesitant now, but the fire is still in his eyes as he looks Juno straight in the eyes. Slowly, he puts his back to the wall and starts to move to where he can see both Juno and Malcom. He spits on the ground in front of him and...

The ghoul is going to try to use Athletics to avoid the maneuver. You get the aspect on the ghoul, and its sticky. :) By the way these are some great aspect names! :D

Yep!

Thanee Be sure to post up your missed attack on the IC thread. Then I'll do the ghouls and Mara and everyone else can follow.

Summary of Exchange #2 Order of Initiative: Actions Keira - Legendary (were-form): change form, miss ghoul Ghoul #1 - Epic: misses Juno Ghoul #2 - Epic: hits Logan, who takes 2 stress and a minor consequence Mara - n/a: Wanders outside, is horrified by ghouls Juno - Great: hits Ghoul #1 dealing...

Dragonwriter Are you taking your entire action to get Mara out of danger? If so, I'll go ahead and post up the round summary, everyone can start posting IC, and I'll start up the next exchange.

After looking up the rules on this and doing some research, I must consider the unsettling situation that I have been playing incorrectly for the past two or three years. I'm going to look into this some more, but it doesn't look good. Yep. Quite a nasty strike it was. You put the X in the...
