Thanks for the response Clint ... seems to have been the only one.

Hi,

I believe that "by the book" any trait test involving multiple skill dice (usually occurs with Autofire or the Bolt power) is a "critical failure" if the Wild Die rolls 1 an ...

Thanks Clint,

1. Is it correct that there is no skill roll required for a 'Strafing' attack?

Nope, that is not correct. It is considered Suppressive Fire, so an attack roll is made just like Su ...

Hi there,

I have a number of questions about the 'Piloting' rules on p34 of the WW2 book:

1. Is it correct that there is no skill roll required for a 'Strafing' attack?

2. The second paragrap ...

Thanks for the reply Clint,

Am I correct in believing that "by the book" whenever you shoot from a moving object you suffer the "Unsteady Platform" penalty, unless you have the "Steady Hands" edge? ...

Another thing you could do is disallow the Healer/Physician Edge, as it's not very conductive for gritty healing.

Whilst I agree on the "Healer" edge (and my Colonial Marine setting alrea ...

Thanks for all the ideas folks, I think I'll be trying out Clint's "Severe Wounds" rule for the moment.

For those who are interested I have some comments on the things others have said:

Clint is pretty much the "official" guy when it comes to non-official rules as he answers all the official questions on the forum.

Yes, I've been asking questions long enough to know that ...

Hi Clint, that has the look of something semi-official, or is it just your supervillain armour that makes it seem that way Wink

How would you handle "The injury goes away when all wounds are he ...

Are you remembering to apply the patient's Wound Modifiers to the Healing roll?

Most of the time Wink

But when you've got Healing d8 and the Healer (or Physician) edge then it's not difficult to ...

Or maybe allow the healer to keep rolling (within the "golden hour"), but as soon as they get their first success they have to stop, thus healing at most 2 wounds.

That wouldn't add any b ...

Hi Wiggy,

you could allow a single Healing roll in the "golden hour." At best that'll remove two wounds. Or allow one roll and only ever one wound to be removed.

I suspect that is prob ...

Hi folks,

One of my current peeves with SW:Ex is that even in the absence of any "powers" the Healing system can produce results that seriously strain my suspension of disbelief.

e.g. ...

Thanks for the comments folks.

I'm not so bothered about the villains since the PC's don't know their stats so I can always apply some handwavium if I feel it necessary.

But I always roll the di ...

Hi folks,

My group have been playing SW for 6 months now and one of the problems I have is that I often find the die rolls to be too open ended. Especially damage rolls (lots of dice) where the dic ...

Yes, since it wouldn't make sense for normal "trauma" healing to help with the damage from "Assault" there would be a need for "Psychic Healing".

I'm not so sure about ...

No, it's just Brainburn, and I was actually thinking I've made that too severe and it should only happen on a natural 1 on the skill die. It is just on a 1 if I'm reading it correctly. That's part o ...

Using Telepathic Powers: Telepathic powers do not cost Power Points. Instead each power is listed with a Telepathy Modifier which is applied to the skill roll. A roll of 4+ is required for success, an ...
