@RJS a few questions:

1) What exactly do you mean by a roll? A specific die of x sides? (Stat/20) chance?
2) For stealth, I disagree with straight-out saying that Sy is seen as soon as he shoots. How about he exits stealth only if the enemy he shot succeeds against him in [whatever a roll is] of (enemy precision) vs. (Sy's agility)?

1) Rolls are xd10, where x is your stat.
2) So wait a minute. You want 3 turns of stealth, during which you are unattackable and gain boosted precision and power and potentially get three shots in that time? While I admit balancing by stealth exit maybe isn't the most realistic outcome, it does balance out 3 turns of invulnerability quite nicely. Your alternative is highly open to exploitation as characters gain stat points to spend.

Oh wow, that's way more of a stat difference than what I'm used to (where you roll a d20 and get a few small modifiers). I think I like it, but we'll have to see how it pans out. Also, I'll ask the "elephant-in-the-room" question: what happens if my character dies? Make a new character or out of the RP?

Either way, thanks for setting all this up @RJS, it looks like it'll be fun and I know GMing usually takes a ton of work.

Hmm, fair enough.

NSAWolf probably won't, but we'll see how the mountain of work I have at the minute goes.

Thanks for the one-upmanship.
No worries. Was just really ill, had three tests while ill, made my throat hurt EVEN MORE than it did already and then hurt my wrist so much my friend told me I should check if it's fractured.


Thinking about it though, 17 assignments is A LOT of work and I bloody hate work so you know. Wouldn't be sure about trading.

I'm a terrible person.

I should shut up.

Must be strange J. I'm being a dick in one thread and funny in another, you shouldn't mention the other thread in each thread and each thread is made by the same person. You chose silence. Good choice.
