How does Fog of War work precisely? Is it resolved after our entire action, or do local elements get revealed after movement, but before action resolution? If actions must be determined before moving in, do I have the choice of stating conditions, such as 'fire on the closest enemy at the end of my move'?

It begins!

We have two heavies and one of everything else.  Clearly the correct course of action is to stand in the Skyranger and level everything before making any moves.

While it's possible that we could punch a hole in the side of the alien craft, we don't need to, as such.

You can move, and then determine whether you attack or whatnot if an enemy is revealed.
So move --> enemy revealed --> attack.

Also I like how you made those graphics and sprites. They're blockishly cute.

I thought it was more important they were clear and distinctive rather than fancy... as well as I don't have the skill to do fancy.

I figure that I should probably ask this before making a mistake in the IC thread... If people haven't moved yet I can still refresh them, right? In which case they'll get to act twice from where they are?

Also, I'm going to wait to see the outcome of Josephine "Jo" Javier's shot against the Sectoid alien before coming to a decision about who to order around. If she doubles and kills it then obviously I'm going to refresh different people than if she doesn't. Just so that everybody knows and doesn't complain about me not posting turns.

If you refresh someone who hasn't moved, I don't think it works, unless Gigly changed it.

We don't strictly need to, it's just a fun thing to do.

In all FEFs, the rule is that [Performer] types can only act on others who have finished their turn. No "refresh before turns" :P

Huh, I could have sworn that I played in one where that was changed. Might have just been the GM though. Whatever, it shouldn't matter too much. I'm just going to have to wait for Thomas to move first.

Most FEFs. While that IS a handbook rule, it is far from unknown to have GMs allow pre-performing.
