((How do rolls use the stats?  For Comp, for example, is it 1d[Comp], rolling to beat the DC cost of the spell?  What if multiple spells are attempted in one turn?  Oh hey, split the comp between the two spells.  I see where you already said that now.

Or are the answers "It's a secret" and "Try it and see?"))
((Each stat point is a die to roll. Each die is rolled and 1 means -1 for final score, 4-5 is +1 and 6 is +2 for final score. Each word has their own DC class that adds up and which you must beat to do magic succesfully.))

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

Give my teammate one of the pistols and enter the locker room, pistol at the ready. "Is anybody in here?! We're peaceful!" Also see if I can keep anybody from hijacking the rocket chair of doom by disabling it temporarily.

((You are able to sacrifice your Action phase (since you probably aren't going to attack, and your Reaction phase still lets you move towards the frame) to use both your stats in your Reaction phase (as in, we roll both, both take effect and incoming attacks have to beat the higher of the two rolls).))

((I'll do that))

Keep trying to take down that PUPPET with the autocannon if in control, or presumably the arms if control is lost.

Because everything is Megaman when you have an arm cannon.

FoU has some twisted role ideas. Screw second-guessing this mechanical garbage spaghetti, I'm basing everything on reads and visible daytime behaviour.

Would you like to play a game of Mafia? The subforum is always open to new players.

Well. This is awesome. Perplexicon with mechs? Count me in.

I don't really want to swoop in at the last minute and risk interrupting the respawn-mechanics test, but damn I need to waitlist and get in on this awesomesauce.

Spoiler: Waitlisty Sheety (click to show/hide)

Also please PM me or whatever if you want another pair of Java-compatible programming hands :)) (I've helped make some simple tools for Perplexicons before, and I don't have to know all of the rules to make them, word translators and the like; I understand if not tho, it seems things are going pretty damn well atm anyway!)

The enthusiasm is appreciated also the image link just gives me a blank page and a thin grey textured line so might want to check that. Also you are missing a point in external stats. You will start in your home on the 2nd level of the colony (office-worker-ville effectively) which is low to middle socioeconomic households. You have a multitool that can do anything (within reason) in the realm of computer repair and refit. You have a wrist computer that has the indeterminate number of programs of indeterminant functionality and you have enough cables to theoretically connect with any of the major port types but the cables were left unobserved briefly and thus have tangled together utterly. Youtube is still full of cat videos.

So it was like a binary search, except the question is "Has the input been brutally murdered?", and it only ever returns True.
