DOWN JACKET FETISH posted:basically you have two relatively decent weapons to attack with that are about as good as chainswords, have a movement AB of 6, can take a free half-move on an acrobatics test after attacking, and can dodge twice in a turn. "react as a bestial creature" means i take control if something worrying happens to you though DOWN JACKET FETISH posted:you can only do one attack per turn I never had to do melee so far

Attacking with two weapons is still one attack. Semi-auto/full-auto and swift/lightning attack is still one attack. Apart from that the only other way to do multiple attack actions is with rare niche expensive talents.

Tin Tim posted:Thank you GM As I understand it if you are dual wielding you can make separate attacks rolls (though as part of a single attack action) with each weapon provided you have the appropriate two weapon fighting talent albeit at -20 for both attacks. Ambidexterity reduces the penalty by 10 and Gunslinger/Sidearm/Blade Dancer reduce the penalty by 10 for dual pistols/pistol and melee/dual melee respectively. If you have both ambidexterity and your choice of secondary talent there is no penalty for dual wielding your chosen style. Since you specifically have Ambidextrous and Two weapon Fighter you can choose to toll twice, once for each arm, but both rolls are at -10.

bang on basically, although Sidearm/Gunslinger/Blade Dancer have caveats to what weapons they work with you don't have swift or lightning attack so it's WS -10 (two weapon) + 10 (standard attack) as a half action, so basically rolling against straight WS. or you could aim and attack (WS + 10 - 10 + 10 for a WS + 10 roll), or your could all out attack (ws + 30 - 10, you can't dodge at all for a WS + 20 roll) each arm rolls separately and can even be against separate targets. they are separate Attacks as part of the same Attack Action, and it's Attack Actions that you can only make one of per turn

I'll try and get a scrunt up when I'm back from work. I've been lazy as poo poo over the last few days because I finally got a new computer after many years of not buying a new computer and I've been trying to cram ten years worth of computer games into my brain in as short a time as possible.

haha i'm reading the Dark Heresy 2 rulebook because i'm considering running a pbp game of it in the new year, and they've still got the "receiving extended medical attention is more hazardous to your health than going without" thing also microwaving dinner apparently requires a +30 Trade: Cook test e: oh my god it's taken the best part of a decade but they finally have rules for silenced weapons that make sense Inexplicable Humblebrag fucked around with this message at 17:47 on Dec 12, 2015 |

nooo they changed it so that you don't need to be on fire to try and put out a fire i mean it's good for, like, firemen and all that, but it's much less funny at least literally any medic can safely lop off a critically wounded limb with no chance of causing any long-term injury to their patient. much better than trying to put the limb in traction, which gives a chance of killing the patient each day

DH2 also inverts how pushing psychic powers works...unlike every other 40K game to this point, pushing raises your effective psy rating but LOWERS your skill, which means it's a lot more situational as to when you'd actually want to do so.

hard enough to get you fuckers to post once per week in one game, so i'll look to get other players for the DH2 oneDeathSandwich posted:Don't they also take out power fettering so you have no safe casting? you can reduce your psy rating to get easier casts but yeah, no fettering. just psykers trying and often failing to do what they're supposed to sort of do all the time. looking at it, i'm actually not sure whether you'd ever really want to push your psychic abilities in combat. -20 is a fairly hefty penalty for sanctioned psykers, and -10 only gives you +1 psy rating, which may not be worth a 1/4 chance of loving up the location. dark heresy by necessity has you investigating places that you might not want to totally mangle, whereas only war is more about combat and if you turn a room into a scorched ash pit it probably matters less

I love the combat maps you make, DJF. They never fail to amuse. Believe it or not, i am exercising scrunty strategy right now! I figure the best way to draw aggo from a bunch of dogs is to either submit to them (dropping to the ground) or get them to chase me. Since my heavy weapon is dangerous to use in slamite hallways, i figure I can at least take advantage of my tankiness. True Grit + the refractor field probably makes me the toughest scrunt to kill.

How problematic will the slam quake be? Because Grimply isn't really in a state of mind where he'll recognize it as a problem since eating dogs is the more pressing matter. Also my brain initially red the title of the song as Sharter OST I have become the scrunts

I mean, if it's got wires and imperial markings and specifically isn't an admech/archaeotech nightmare device then it's more than likely a force axe and like hell I'm giving it up because psykers can't have nice things. Unless the answer is that I need to have Forbidden knowledge (space marines) or (inquisition) to figure it out because it's some obscure relic.
