I present to you a build guide for a character archetype that I helped one of my players put together for a Rippers campaign. It's a bit of an unusual one and to play their main stick, you will need your GM's approval. The advantage of the build is, that you can complete it before advancing to Seasoned Rank and can then spend your further advances on developing your other wishes. Or you can slow the development down a little to be less of a one-trick-pony in the early levels and delay your power curve a little. The build here is presented for Human with only features from SWADE core. Many settings will have races that are even better at this.

Any ways, here it goes.

Here is something I have been struggeling with. When a character is using a mounted weapon on a vehicle, which scale modifier do they use then shooting at different targets. Here is three examples:

1.) A gargantuan space ship (+6) with large (+2) turbo lasers operated by a normal WC shooting at a huge (+4) spaceship. Does the WC get -2 (gargantuan vs huge), a +2 (large vs huge) or even +4 (normal vs huge) bonus/penalty on his shooting roll. I could see valid arguments being made for all 3 scales.

2.) A deck gunner on a pirate ship firing the ships cannon. Both ships are huge, but the gunner and his cannon are normal sized. Again: +4 or +0? Here the argument for normal scale on the shootin

Hi everyone,

I've built a tool to compute and display the probabilities of various Savage Worlds rolls. Currently it only does trait rolls, but you can at least visualize for yourself, what is really better: +2 or free reroll. (Spoiler: Starting at d8, +2 is always better, unless you need A LOT of raises or have a penalty >4 on your roll D8+2 in blue, D8 with 1 free reroll in green).

For Windows you can find the tool here.
For *nix Users you can build yourself, using the source code from my github.

I have a couple of questions regarding Mass Battles (SWADE pp.131). Specifically the "Inspire" Battle Effect has some unclear side effects.

First some general questions:

  • Recovery during battle: Am I right to assume that characters may use rounds in which they are not fighting to recover Fatigue, Wounds (through e.g. the Healing skill or relevant powers) and Power Points?
  • Can a commander enter the fighting to "support" his own battle roll at the end of the round? Should the commander get a penalty on his command roll for being in the thick of things? (E.g. a multi action penalty) Applying a multi action penalty already negates the maximum impact he can have, even with a raise on his

Weapon Spawns

Discussion

Did they change the spawn rates for M4s and AKs in the christmas patch?
I just did the complete Cherno->Balota->Pogarovo->Zelen->Vybor->NWAF->Tisi round trip. I have literally every attachment and rail/butstock combo for both of them (including the nightvision scope for the AK), about 200 rounds for each (and clips, too ofc).

All I can find is a wagon load of MP5s, but not a single AK or M4. What gives?

So the line by Grindlewald is, I think, pretty widely accepted to be a lie. Albus is not a biological brother of Credence, the timing makes this impossible. AD's mother Kendra was dead for 7 years when Credence was born and his father Percival had been in Azkaban for at least 14 (if he hadn't died already). And we know he died there, because he didn't escape (Sirius Black was the first one to ever do that in HP3), and if it sentence had been commuted, it would have been mentioned by someone in HP7 or in one of his biographies. So unless the Dementors allowed two prisoners to fall in love and have sex in Azkaban (which seems not like a very Dementor thing to do), there is no way that Perciv

I'm looking for a setting that combines space ships, lasers and the final frontiers with arcane magic.

Imagine if your classic DnD Wizzards boarded the Serenity and smuggled goods with Captain Reynolds.

Show me what you got.

I have probably >2000h in DayZ Mod and >100h in SA.

TLDR: I played .63 for an hour, I'm not touching this game until the next patch.

Spawn at Krutoy cap. EZ. Tulga Apples, Head to Stary via Mista, Staroye, worsed case Guglovo. I've run this a hundred times, on every SA patch, in every Arma 2 DayZ Mod.

Tulga is good to me. Knife, Hatchet, 2 cans of beans, a pot (its the whole hoodie byt why not). But the Bean cans say "Raw" now? Last patch disease was not a thing, but there is a new germ indicator.... Better cook that shit.

Get a fire going (hatchet and knife, baby). Put beans in pot. (Country music on spotify). No message received for 5 seconds.

Wait for server restart. All I

Most european armies had squads or teams designated for using grenades: The Grenadiers. They usually threw small metal spheres filled with gun powder, ignited with a short fuse.

Here are these grenades in the Victorian Era:

The grenade must be lit before throwing.
