Greetings - what a great game! Been reading all the postings for awhile now and have found the Q&A very helpful, and the fluf super funny. Having played some...
... Greetings, glad to have you on the list. ... Because bricks are awesome :). ... I think you're missing something, shooters do regularly get whomped in...
They way I was taught is that in close combat only the hero whos' turn it is (i.e. the attacker) can inflict damage. If the attackers' target wins the opposed...
... True, but they both get a turn and can both be 'the attacker' within a turn. ... Well, 'that attack' misses, but to say nothing happens would be incorrect....
... It should be noted that closing can happen very quickly in S2. In the example from my previous posts, the thing can charge 26" per turn when closing, so...
I had a problem with the rules allowing all ranged attacks to be used in close contact and thought that it gave shooters a great advantage, and I believe the...
... It is not usually advantageous for shooters to stay in melee with melee specialists, shooter lifespan is very short. ... There used to be a penalty for...
... <Snip> ... What prompted this in gaming was that a shooting model would spend 1AP to move away and then shoot anyway, so shooting in close combat was a...
... I'm pretty sure the above didn't prompt it (I think I did). The above would provoke a free attack from the melee opponent and thus not be advantageous. ...
... The answer for me seems to be in the combination of the annex house rule of "not in melee combat" applied appropriately to equipment along with some sort...
... Are you sure you want to do this, most games allow ranged attacks in combat for a reason (even champions). Unless they have a focus, its not really...
Since I am on a roll, her are some more ideas to get people talking. Can you believe I have finally gotten around to reading the vehicle rules after having...
Hi, We have discussed it and Scott has agreed on a rules change for Ranged Attacks. When in close combat, you can perform an RA against any attacker you are...
Hi, FYI, I updated the Annex and moved the old house rules page over to a beta test page (since that's what its been for quite some time now). Here you'll find...
Hi, This is to let you know that I have created a character generator and placed it at the annex: http://dave.dynip.com/S2Annex/chargen.htm Its for IE users...
Dave, I opened up that page and heard the Michigan fight song. At first I thought it was .wav file but my speakers where turned off and determined it was in my...
... So what you're saying is that the OSU in me is so strong that you can even sense it in the programs I write. And its strenth is such that your mind...
... A futile defense mechanism, to be sure. Sort of light donning maize-and-blue tissue paper as armour against a Scarlet-and-Grey storm. Or something. CEA +++...
If I may as a few Q's: 1. Ranged attacks now cost 4 AP's as per the new version (Shadow Down) of the rules, correct? 2. The core rules (book 1) expalin that if...
... Correct (but its Showdown). ... Not necessarily friendly, which other model in melee (could be friend or foe) ... I think Scott has said in the past that...
If you are as interested in Comics as I am, or would like to see the super-hero's of the world for inspriation, check out the below site. For me it was dying...
I don't know if this question has been asked before, but... since the number of Initiative dice are primarily obtained from the Agility attribute, if a model...
SHOCK RESISTENCE: BUILD COST 2 PTS PER LEVEL MAX 3 EFFECT: This vehicle has either been build with extremely Shock Resistant materials or has shock resistant...
... Why would you think it wouldn't? The rules say that initiative is an opposed agility roll and S-Agility helps on all rolls involving agility, ergo... Just...
... Being new to the game we were not sure whether you should roll bonus dice seperate from super attribute dice....ie., if you level one super strength and...
... Faron, take a look at the Super-Ability text again and you'll see that its carefully worded to say "...in any goal roll involving the [Super] attribute.". ...
Strength Rolls: Suppose a character has strength at super levels and armor with no level. If when he/she rolls in defense of damage he/she gets to roll all...
... Which is the norm. ... No they haven't they paid for it, 10 points per level. The S-Strength doesn't modify their strength dice it modifies *any* dice pool...
It made sense to me originally. Super characters should indeed be super and their die rolls should show it and Armor and Force Field are not separate rolls...
