    WOIN [Question] DEFENSE and attribute checks?

    And where do you get that about INFUSE magic? Because I can't find anything that says one way or another. Just like I'd ask if INFUSE magic giving +1d6 STR or the Mighty enchantment on armor giving +1d6 STR wouldn't also increase your dice pool with melee weapons? Since that is a STR check

    WOIN [Question] Types of SOAK and Magic?

    I'll assume that means it doesn't and I'm just a bit too thick. However is it then correct that any exploits that provide +X SOAK and doesn't specify type, stacks with all types? Withstanding. Cost 1 MP per +2 SOAK. This enables the target to withstand the damage type of the secret; it does not...

    WOIN [Question] Types of SOAK and Magic?

    Hello More Drekin questions, hurray! "There are three types of Soak: natural, armor, and special (which includes Soak granted by magic). The different types of Soak don’t stack with each other; you use the best available. For example, if you have 5 natural Soak and 8 armor Soak, you apply 8...

    WOIN [Question] Elements of Magic: Hedging?

    Hello Another Drekin question! Hedging. Cost 1 MP. You must declare a creature type (fey, goblinoid, beast, etc.) or virtue (such as Good or Evil). Creatures with the declared type or virtue who try to enter the area of effect or try to target Mental Defense of creatures within the area are...

    WOIN [Question] DEFENSE and attribute checks?

    Hello again Drekin has returned with another question! I remember reading that Defense Scores where just simplified attribute checks, so does that mean an exploit that gives you +1d6 END would give you extra VITAL DEFENSE? Please advise Drekin

    WOIN [Question] Experience and Advancement?

    I was just wondering if it was an oversight and it should've "Next Grade" in EXP for a medium encounter. Since that would fit the 10 medium encounters :)

    WOIN [Question] Experience and Advancement?

    Yes. You also wrote in the book that the assumption is 10 medium encounters should provide the EXP needed for the next grade, correct?

    WOIN [Question] Experience and Advancement?

    Thank you. But not what I was looking for at all. The book specifically states on assumption of 10 medium encounters per grade advancement, but that can't be done with the advancement costs. So is the assumption wrong? Is the amount of EXP for medium also supposed to be based on the next grade?

    WOIN [Question] Experience and Advancement?

    Hello again Drekin is back!!! I was looking through the experience and advancement chapter and stumbled over this fact: "The core advancement assumption is that you need to defeat or overcome 10 encounters of Medium difficulty to advance to the next grade." However you need 10 times the NEW...

    WOIN [Question] Venetian Tilts?

    Hello again Drekin is here aswell! In "The Holds of Vendalyr" on p. 25 there are exploits called "Tilts". Each of them have 3 exploits/effects/components. The text describes a Tilt as needing to be "charged" to be used but the effects make it seem like you only need to "charge" to use the...

    WOIN [Question] Limits on Always Prepared

    Hello again ;) And so soon! I'd like some clearance on what is possible with this exploit: Always prepared (requires LOG 8+). You have a brilliant tactical mind, and are always prepared. You may declare a single action which you took prior to the encounter (even if you didn't know the...

    WOIN [Question] Exploits and actions?

    Hello Another Drekin question :D Since you answered my last question, the flood gates opened... don't stop now! While some exploits clearly state what type of action they cost or strongly hit at being used with an attack or move, there are some more ambivalent. Like this: Jury-rig (requires...
