There's no more need to join the Oro forum game, because Oro will soon be coming to YOU.

on the plus side, the looting is fabulous.

Hey, Piecewise!  Lenglon raised an interesting idea in the game thread--failing a multiattack with a bow.  What failure cost does that have, if your opponent is melee-only?  -50 to dodge no attack doesn't seem like a penalty.

...Also, if the entire enemy team is ranged and fighting you, how is it decided how many counter-attacks get made on a failed roll?  Does it have to be from the single person you targeted--meaning excessive multiattacks against melee people is always safe?  Or can it be from any single ranged person, so ranged people can cover melee allies?  Presumably, every ranged person doesn't get a counter, though that would arguably be more logical than a single person getting a counter.
Well first I'm gonna handle his surpressive fire in a different way because rapid firing arrows is silly.

But I'm also gonna handle speed failures with ranged attacks by having you either damage your weapon, damage yourself or damage a teammate.

You can do suppressive fire, you're just gonna do it by firing whenever he sticks his head up instead of just firing 50 arrows a minute or something.

I didn't expect my silly statistics joke to get that much attention or cause that much debate.

Not just yet. the team that's in now is still a test team, and they had to go in as pure human characters. But the main sheet involves your stats, your body parts, and your weapon, something like

I miss anything, or need to modify that template?

Yes, this is a game begin developed and run by Piecewise. this is one of two main options for his main game, post ER. teh other option is the ER redux game, which has been tested as well.

Heart is how much you are able to withstand the corruption of Ouro, and is the only stat that cna go above 100. Here is a link to the rules:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Enx1OmSEbqScDG-DRmvCnPUv8CuEqIMQxzfyU7b1rio/edit

That updates as rules are changed.

Slightly late, but I find it rather remarkable just how much effort you guys can put into quantifying the exact size of an unending demonic hellscape, based purely upon how much more adorable it looks after eating Egan's character.

Oh, and ATH, PW isn't accepting new characters quite yet.  We gotta wait for everyone in the test game to die first, and even then I think we still might run ER Redux?  In any case the system will likely change a good bit by the time we play for real.  I imagine you'll get to keep your nice rolls, though!
