Wait, that's actually really good! I think, anyway. So that means I do +2 harm to non-gangs total before I apply the weapon harm?

[Fniff]

And if you choose to inflict terrible harm, you get another +1 harm.

When they said Gunluggers are for when you want to be the baddest ass, they aren't lying.
Edit: For comparsion, if you unload your MG on an NPC and choose to inflict terrible harm, you'll be dealing 6-harm. In terms of damage, that's equal to being run over by a train.
Edit edit: Using a machete does about the same damage.

Gunluggers are terrifying.

[Harry Baldman]

I think that's not too far from the truth, considering what having a whole machine gun volley unloaded into you would plausibly do to your body. Though how does inflicting terrible harm work? I don't see that in the move list.

[Fniff]

It's an option on the 'Seize by Force' basic move. Basically, whenever you go into a battle, you can choose to inflict terrible harm to get +1 harm. You can also choose to take less harm, take definite hold of the situation, or petrify the shit out of your enemy.

[Ragenaut]

plus, there are other moves from other playbooks that increase damage that you can pick from, if you advance decide to pick those.

Oh, I just remembered something I was going to ask: What does the "hidden" attribute (from the custom weaponry) mean?

[Ragenaut]

Hidden means infinite.

Infinite (constraint): throw one away, the character has another one, and another, and another; she has as many as she needs.
It’s important to distinguish an infinite thing, as one item, from any one of its individual members. Take infinite valuable knives, for instance: the character can throw one knife away and have more, indefinitely, but if she throws all her knives away as an item, they’re all gone. Similarly, it’s all her knives as an item, not any individual knife, that are valuable. Treat any one knife as disposable, transient, not even really a thing.

[VoidSlayer]

The counts as a gang should only count in a "battle" if it is just two guys sticking knives in each other it's not really a battle.  At least that is the official interpretation, up to the MC of course.  But at the very least, you can fight whole gangs on even footing.  It's not as powerful as it sounds, but it is damn good.

Yeah I was torn between the sword and hidden knives personally.

[Ragenaut]

I'm planning on getting started on Tuesday. See ya then.

[Xardalas]

Updated the npcs in my gang. Namely, I chose a few pics for em and posted the links. I thought most of them were kind of amusing! Oh, also, don't worry. They do have some depth to em, I send rage better copies of their lil bios. Just didn't wanna post shit that wouldn't exactly be common knowledge in it. Well, two out of three anyways. One of em is the textbook definition of a douche.

[scriver]

Jesus, man.

[Xardalas]

He's the best. :p

[VoidSlayer]

Midnight is currently pumping the gang for info for more tales, he offers enough humor and interest that they do not mind him hanging on.  Does not mind getting a little too deep and dangerous with crazy fellows like those.

[Fniff]

Hey, while we're waiting, would it be possible to do Hx? It would give us something to do until Tuesday.

[Ragenaut]

Yeah, go ahead. The Hx section is in the same area where you made your characters.
