Duke Knight's Momentum is up for revision? Which version of the skill would you prefer?

Current one, unchanged.
+4 AS and +5 DMG when moving 4 spaces or more.
+2 AS and +3 DMG on Player Phase, with additional +2 AS and +2 DMG when moving 4 spaces or more.
+1 AS and +1.5 DMG for each space moved up to 4 spaces.
Current one but AS bonus is converted to DR from the end of the Player Phase until the next one.
I don't know but I want to see the results.

Voted "no", but the only reason is that I still think the non-rigged Decoy should be available to Spies.

Other than that, looks good!

So... Who doesn't like the spy traps? What complaints do you have?

I did :P

Because it's only more work for me as GM.

Not significantly? I mean, you can just place in the HP spoiler the coordinates of trapped tiles. And only 3 tiles will ever be trapped by one PC at a time at First Class, and only 5 at Promoted.

Dammit Haspen hwy must you be so lazy :P
Whatever the case, I like the idea of spy traps. Needs some refinements on the effects of some traps and how exactly setting traps will work, but that's about it.

Fog of War is the worst. This is a far superior alternative.

@dp: To set a trap, a spy will move to a space adjacent to the space they wish to trap, and then spend their action placing it. They cannot attack, use an item, or rescue in the same round, though they can still trade.

Basically the same "spend an action" that shows up sometimes.
What refinements do you propose?

Just realized that Spies promoted from archer trainees are inferior to ones from thief trainees because no lockpick.

Should we specify that Spies always get lockpick, or give spies something better?

Entirety of Thief Trainee tree has Lockpick skill as far as I understand the badly written handbook.

Thief trainee, and the 1.22 handbook explicitly says characters retain class skills, if we were to go by it. The thief trainee having the lock pick was present in 1.20.

We should explicitly state that Scavenger, Thief, and Spy all get the Lockpick skill. In case someone doesn't want to use trainees, for example.

Or tweak the inherited skills rule to state that it retains skills from pre-promotes.  In the case where a class has multiple possible pre-promotes (as in games that start with final promotes already in play), the player chooses their promotion path, and by extension inherited skills, at character generation.

That could work too, except for Rider trainee, but the mount section of the rules already takes care of that.

...I want someone to run a pre-promote Emblem. Not that I'd be able to play in it right now.
