    Doing out-of-game weapon repairs in-game

    I say make a metal anvil that doubles as a tool kit for foam and latex weapon repair.

    Oh man... gavels, cement blocks, granite rocks, pickles, SHARKS! I mean, who among us has not wanted a throwing shark?

    Reducing Holds on the Field

    I think you're inferring premeditation where I mean none. I'm not referring to a planned out "You know, we should make him say lots of things!"-type scenario. I'm saying that as a natural function of play, people are going to capitalize on the fact that the target simply is not able to counter.

    Reducing Holds on the Field

    I disagree that the suggestion "de incentivizes mobbing a boss". On the contrary, it further provides further incentive - if the boss has to respond to nine different things before he can mount a counterattack, then mobbing becomes substantially more useful, not less. It's not about players...

    Reducing Holds on the Field

    As an example, Seattle has used a monster costume in which the person repping the creature simply can't hear or identify all of the packets and weapon blows striking it, so a separate marshal was responsible for counting body, making defensive calls, etc. They also had a dragon where the head...

    Armor Pauldrons with Hauts

    As a matter of what the rules dictate, it is ultimately up to the marshal's discretion. While not outright banned, as noted, the rulebook suggests "avoiding" them - the idea being it's better to just not run into "but the marshal in chapter X lets me use them"-type discussions, and that...

    The LittleLeaf Trading Company Seeks a Scroll

    Greetings and Salutations, Master Little, By way of introduction, I am Sir Gregor Orpheus Dimitris of the Knights of the Vale. Regarding the scroll you seek, is it your intention to cast it fully, or merely to spellcraft off of it? If the latter, I may be able to see to it that one be made...

    Spell parry

    The rulebook states: "A Spirit Linked item will not be dropped, but cannot be used for five seconds". It makes no specifications on what the item might be, whether a weapon, shield, or cape. It also fails to parse out "used for any purpose" from "used as a weapon", ergo, I would suggest that...

    Spell parry

    Two things: 1 - the scroll text has been updated to allow characters to Spell Parry for other targets: "The Spell Parry can be used to intercept a spell on another Target if that Target is within Range as defined in the Parry Skill." 2 - the scroll text specifies "This ritual allows the wielder...

    Slays and Assassinates

    Oregon and Seattle have implemented "Giant monster rules" as a specific implementation of "reduced damage" rules, essentially treating Eviscerates as large amounts of damage (500 or 1000), so soaking is a possibility.

    Merchant take 2

    More explicitly, it's not really meant to be used to sell things you make, but things you find.

    The Obliteration Twins

    The by-laws, afaik, generally deal with out-of-game logistics: how chapter interact with one another, licensing fees, how much treasure can go out, etc. There's nothing in the rules to explicitly disallow a chapter from including something of that nature as part of the local flavor (though, I...

    The Obliteration Twins

    That depends heavily on the local plot team. If I were running the plot, it would depend on the trustworthiness of the characters that approached, their relationship with the higher up they spoke to, etc. It would also depend on the feasibility of the story the two characters told. I mean, if...

    Follow-up Q: "all rituals abide by the flaw's restriction"

    Just to make explicit - the statement "all rituals abide by the flaw's restriction" is not intended to act as a suppression of the ritual effects, and be read as applying to qualities inherent to the object, is it? i.e. a Rendered sword with the flaw "not usable by elves" doesn't become...

    Flaw: Cannot be used by X/Spirt Link

    I swore I'd asked it as an ARC ruling, but apparently not. I suspect that having an item link to you is, in fact "using" the item (unlike, say, an item that becomes Rendered, which in no way interacts with the character's spirit or active choosing). Much like if you already have 20 rituals on...

    Proscribe

    Correct. No, because it is a distinct effect. much like Cloak Summoned Force won't let you resist an Explosive trap (despite having a "Destroying" result). Enh, I don't see that easier or harder than throwing down a circle around the circle and Destroying it, or Spirit Walking in and doing the...

    Seeking to purchase a good set of knives

    I have all the regular daggers I could handle without cutting off my fingers and toes in a bad spill, but I do still need silver ones. Sadly, though, I have a number of familial duties to attend to at the moment, and won't be about anytime soon. Sorry, mate. Rollo
