SKULLDRED skirmish rules Beta 2.4 update

[Comsquare]

Hei Dave,

red 2.03 today and dicovered right now the new version.
Had a quick check and after that a small question.

A modells toughness is Size-1, right?
If so, than the Quickstart Cards are wrong
I also think that the pointcosts of the Quickstart Sorcerer are not quite right.

Otherwise, very nice system

[Delaney]

Cheers all!

Doh!  Damned character cards... Someone suggested making the rule you have to roll equal to a creatures toughness to kill it- and just make it size+armour.

Just had a thought on casting magic - what about sacrificing a dredskull to invoke total power so a spell is cast automatically  - for those critical moments when you really need to pull something out of the bag... 

Might be an idea to only allow this for spells cast against a single target - no dice splitting?

Otherwise its working well - especially bringing the cost of magic dice down to 5GC.

New combat rules also are working well - should have Escape from the Larder of Doom!!! written up tomorrow all being well... 

[Delaney]

Cant wait- did you play reversed dice/size rules? 

[Thantsants]

Yep - if you mean size gives you number of combat dice and the target number is your combat level - works well and feels right.

To Kill has been good too - just not for the poor old skellies! 

[Delaney]

Lovely news- thats pretty unanimous then- think I may just have to type that up once I finish work today!

[hummus]

just reading the rules
is there an army roster for the different fantasy races somewhere on your site?

[Delaney]

No army lists.  Pah.  I spit on army lists.


There will be once I have the rules fixed up.
