There seems to not be a lot of information about poison or traps. Would it be a sourcebook to cover that extra stuff or is it up to DMs to decide how poison and traps should be valued for dmg and so on?
Can any race use Burdinadin armor? I had a PC started as a minor noble and he managed to buy the best Burdinadin armor since the start, should it be so cheap? Everyone else is wearing leather and chain mail and he already has the equivalent of power armor from Fallout Is there gonna be sourcebooks with more gear, customisation,talents, schools and NPC sheets?
Hope you guys manage to create more content for this great See more system, Im loving it so far. We're glad you like it, Joel! To help with your questions: 1. Humans are not the most exciting race, and so their racial abilities are as you say--not that great. They also don't have many drawbacks. What their two racial abilities allow them to do is potentially gain arc for use in other areas boosting skills, attributes, etc.
At the moment, poison and traps are largely for GMs to decide. Although you can modify rules about explosions in the Combat chapter for certain traps. Poison may be an increased infection chance see Wounds and Recovery. We may expand on other types of damage, but wanted to focus on the game's core for now.
Not really. Burdinadin armor is generally only available to Burdinadin, with very few exceptions. Read the first couple of paragraphs in Chapter 17, and you'll see why. If roleplay allows another race to have and maintain Burdinadin armor But GMs should definitely restrict it for the reasons you've described. It's not made for others. But without See more it, Burdinadin are pretty vulnerable. We just released our Hunter's Handbook with rules for fighting creatures big and small.
We have a lot of stuff in the pipeline, and we're working through it steadily. We're releasing NPC cards in the next week both print and digital , and rules for magic will soon follow. Check out our Kickstarter for more information on what we're working on. We're a small team, so bear with us! Many thanks for your fast reply and solving my doubts. I would like to congratulate you one more time for the good work you guys have done and wish you succed.
SoS is a RoS successor? If anyone has played Blade of the Iron Throne, how does this hold up against that? I have seen nothing here or on their Website to indicate if they have a delivery date.
What I can tell you is that SoS is far less gritty, and the combats seem eternal with very little damage. Am I getting it right: this is only Core Rulebook without ANY extras like equipment, army and monster decks, adventure module etc?
So if you missed Kickstarter then there is absolutely no reason to buy this gutted product? I suppose all these items will be here on the platform, the point is that none of them have been released so far.
I have not found in the book, but is there any action that allows a ranged attack to be targeted at a target area? I understand that in the heat of combat this is more difficult, but in a situation of calm, with a sneak attack, without the target knowing the intention is much more plausible.
There is no such rule in Song of Swords. Take note that this also refers to ONLY target location, the actual hit location ie.
I know this is a late reply, but I know of two cases in the system where you can choose a target area for missile attacks. The first one is when shooting within a Bout using the Melee Shoot maneuver. In that case, you choose target zones just as with melee attacks. The other case is if you roll a 1 on the Missile Target Zones table, which results in a critical hit.
This allows you to choose where you hit the target, and the AV of the target counts as halved against that attack. But that is as close as the system gets, as far as I know. However, the option mentioned by Glenn K. Does this book cover any early firearms? How about combat against non-humanoid beasts and monsters? Yes, he has some firearms.
Love the game so much. But there are so many rule that is quite unclear and I hope anybody can help? Or Sprint, can I use move 6 yards then Sprint as an action for another 12 yards to a total of moving 18 yards in one phase?
About Engage, the weapon reach must be in two yards of the Target. There is an example of EL reach weapon can initiate target from 6 yards away. On page , EL reach weapon is in reach stage 7 but where is the rule that give the actual reach of the weapon in yards? How can I know that EL reach weapon can reach 4 yards?
Lets say that A and B are fighting in a bout. Does that mean in a one on one fight, the person with lower ADR can not do any Action at all if the person with higher ADR keep using Engage because that will make the person with lower ADR to get in the bout and cannot use any Action at all Including moving away.
On page , about ending the bout. And does that mean he can enter another bout without having to move at all? Sorry to post such a lot of question. That means, "6 yards" is more like "maximum capped 6 yards" of movement. Charge requires a straight line for "maximum capped 12 yards". But hey, there's no stopping you from using additional movement as part of the action if you feel this movement allowance is too restrictive, but this means it's easy to execute melee actions with movement.
See more are in play as "Difficult Terrain". Another issue i have for this is how this runs along with fatique management.
Does moving only without an Action cost stamina, no stamina, or uses less stamina? It's left up to GM to tweak accordingly unfortunately because these were seperate rules that weren't integrated together cohesively. For me, i only consider restoration of stamina to occur, if you don't move at all, or at a lower rate if they only move half of their MOB. A distance of two yards is considered within "engage touch distance" regardless of weapon length.
For particularly long weapons as you said, it's up to you to increase it to three yards or so Use some imagination with regards to relative comparison i guess.. If the weapon is thrown a distance away beyond that, then you can only recover it within the bout by ticking down 2 yards distance per bout exchange while back-pedaling with defensive manuevers towards the weapon if possible or not performing any bout manuevers if the enemy is in the way of the weapon. If you wish to perform a bout manuever while working towards recovering your weapon in any location, tick down by 1 yard each time, but if the enemy is in the way of the weapon, then ticking down only occurs if the enemy didn't perform any actions against you for that bout exchange.
So, it's either MOB or maximum capped 6 yards of it. Normally, for a character that initiated Disengage unlike Flee , they can attempt to re-engage into a different bout within MOB max 6 yards cap distance only. But since they already fought for the current phase, they cannot fight again for the current phase but wait for the next. However, for Disengage, what I do is flag the Disengaging character whomever initiated it with a Disengage token that lasts only for that next 1 phase where he has priority to always act first within in the next phase compared to the other characters that were previously in the bout.
Disengage is useful in specific case where you need to rush to a nearby friend who needs urgent help in his own bout. A character that Disengage from the bout can therefore hopefully join a nearby existing bout in the next phase, allowing them the flexibility of switching between bouts across phases without having to Flee or Kill their opponents.
More on Number 4 dynamics This has an effect of allowing a "disengaged" bout's location to shift up to 6 yards distance per phase eg. I Disengage to move 6 yards away, even with no nearby bouts present, then, my previous opponent re-engages me in a bout, to kickstart the bout again. Any other latter character in the phase that latter joins such a bout that had already transpired, will have to wait next phase for that bout to resume.
This tends to encourage players to pick fights among "Fresh opponents" in the current See more phase, if they want to take action immediately instead of being put on the "waiting list next phase.. It also tends to cause "late-joiners" to end up being pulled out of their existing bout they had attempted to late-join, if some other enemy later engages them in the current phase forcing them to fight the other enemies instead..
