Or it was created ahead of time.

Heck, Stirk created an agent that he publicly stated was to protect him. That's no different from creating weapons and armour :P
I also made bodyguard trees publicly.

I'm impressed you guys got Andres to change the names of Humans willingly without resorting to murder. Good job on that!

I like how Hevin isn't even trying to hide that he's making stuff.

Though that can cause the other gods to start making stuff as well, especially Eid. Though this time he doesn't even have to f*** up to have us fighting over it.
Leading to yet another waste of time while Meow makes some sort of superweapon.
It's kinda hard to support the whole "Eid is evil" thing, when the guy who was attacked, was wielding an unknown sword and unknown armor.
That is showing he was up to something, supporting more that Eid was paranoid, not evil. Since, as always. Innocent until proven guilty.


Oh hey, I rambled, better strikethrough.
Why are you assuming gods would subscribe to the (relatively modern) idea of "innocent until proven guilty"? Really the clusterfuck in YG2 was delightfully in character from my point of view, and most importantly, fun, though I wasn't really involved in it from what I can recall.

The idea of presumption of innocents was around in Roman times, at least six century maybe second/third. We had weapons more "modern" than that.

Fair enough. I had honestly forgotten about justinian law, but it regressed after that from a quick wiki-skimming.

Well Roman law was hardly going to hold up after the fall of Rome  :P. The concept was there for a long time, I was simply pointing out it wasn't as "Modern" as you had believed it was.

Then again, the modern age was around WW2, and then there's modern and new modern art.
Modern is kinda meaningless now.

Oh, and how could we forget modern history, which starts somewhere in the 14th century.

Eh, getting the feeling it's taking a while for the update. Anything in particular causing the delay?

What do you think I am, the forum police  ::)?

It seems you do know more about the matter than I do...
So the problem is why I am actually asking is due to the fact that I can't really get my head wrapped around the savage worlds hindrances and advantages. It all eludes me so far...

Edit:
Spoiler: The Moonwalkers (click to show/hide)
Is this correct ?

...I have 0 clue what you are trying to do here. The thing is, it is absurdly easy to calculate prices here. Reposting price sheet:

Tier-0: +2 points to spend, 1E/unit
Tier-1: +3 points to spend, 1.7E/unit
Tier-2: +5 points to spend, 3E/unit
Tier-3: +6 points to spend, 5.2E/unit
Tier-4: +8 points to spend, 9E/unit

Meaning that you can only ever have prices of 1, 1.7, 3, 5.2, and 9E per unit. No, I see what you are trying to do now, but castes don't seem to work like that. And if they did there still isn't any 12E/unit tier. And you counted Protection +3 as 2 points, instead of 3 points like it actually is. Most of your castes use more than 8 points, meaning you can't use them. If you change everything to be 8 points, then they will cost 9E per unit. We have a slightly-outdated tool for this even.

So here is how it goes. You have, at most, 8 points to spend. If you spend all those eight points, then it costs 9E/unit to make them. So if all the castes in that thing^ are individually 8 points, you will spend 9E. You can't make them 12 or 11 or even 9 points, only 8 at most. Since that seems to be what you want to do (and it would *probably* make the price-check easier, since they don't have to average out), just remove things until they are all 8 points. Just removing the poison immunity is enough for the 9Es, the others will have to remove more. In addition, there isn't an "Intelligence" stat (the equivalent would be "Smarts"), and the +1 Smarts isn't explicitly listed. The -2 Attribute would be crippling, as it would lower you to 0 dice naturally, essentially meaning they would be too dumb to have any chance of succeeding at any given intellectual task.

Eid instructs the Humans to stop eating the angel-icious Angelicos, but it appears that they have no idea what an Angelicus is.
KJP, please. Just...why?

Enki(m?)
What's with the "(m?)"?

Azem has created two of three units of Enki ordered by Eid. (Azem: -2E)
Why only two out of three? He has 6 Actions and it only costs 2 Actions per unit.

Do the Azem-made Enki worship only me or do they also worship Azem?

EDIT: @Vgray, I'm pretty sure the reason I didn't pay you is because you only made two out of the three units. I didn't do any secret actions or anything saying I won't pay you.

Wut? No, that's just the chant to the God of Fluff.
Those who do lots of fluff tends to also be worshipers of the Fluff God.

All hail the God of Fluff, and their extra fluffy tail.
