Re: Trinity Isles OOC
I guess... reluctantly. I'd rather not. Haley doesn't even know why they are bad news, or why they are attacking without profvoktion, but she'll do it because you two are techicially da law.

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Heads up, Burns, Dlover, Synch: I updated the initiative list for you guys. Also, hitting the Euler(s) in the helicopter will prove hard unless you actively want to enter the helicopter- Anyone outside is fair game, though.

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Bjorn/sneak should have two attacks since they had a surprise attack, right? That's what hopper did last battle...even though he was right in front of us and we saw him.

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Sneak can get a stealth attack, yes. As for Bjorn, that depends on whether his stealth is matched by any of the opponents perception. If so, they both get a bonus attack.

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Okay, then if it's based off stealth then how did hopper get a sneak attack?

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Hopper attacked us first without inititive, effectivly a sneak attack since he acted twice in a turn.

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Except he didn't
His "sneak attack" literally just consisted out of him starting the battle by me expressly saying he'd only do it once things came back to his turn.
You keep making up these situations to make things sound bad, when they're either not nearly as bad as you make them sound, or just simply non-existant.

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Didn't go through with any actions just yet for Alex/Haley/Bjorn, giving a last chance to potentially adjust/clarify actions now some more information has been given...

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
1: how big is the chopper? 2: How much space is there in the engine compartment? (I'll roll tech edu if you want me to)

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
1: Like this:
So, big enough to walk around in comfortably (barely), but not super big.
2: That kind of depends what you mean exactly. Like the engine compartment would probably be pretty big, but it'd also wouldn't be empty space?

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Yes. That's... What I said.Swift is a friendly attack. It doesn't hurt allies even if it's in the effect.
Also:
Regal challenge -
"Keywords - 2-16 Playtest
Target - Pok├®mon or Trainer within 5 Meters
Ask the target if they will show deference or defiance. If they choose Deference, the target loses their next Shift action and loses 3 CS in the Stat of the userÔÇÖs choice. If they choose Defiance, the user gains a +10 Bonus to all Damage Rolls for the rest of the Scene."

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Haha...I'd rather choose deference. Because I am not buffing her up.

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Yeah, it DOES sound like in most instances, one would prefer deference over defiance, wouldn't they?
... I just realized, could you use that ability on an allied pokemon and then have them be defiant for a "free" +10 damage?

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
So I should probably ask in here
Do auto-hit moves have a chance to crit in PTU? I can't remember, I know in the games they do.
and if not is there any way to save the 20 I just rolled for my next attack?

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
So, if a character intercepts an attack, when they're hit can they then use that hit to trigger a defensive move like Protect?
Also, AUGH, I'm an idiot. Why did I use the pure tank to attack when I have Ice Punch available on the semi-tank? >.<

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
In retrospect, I think I actually forgot to properly mark that, and then forgot...(Luna put that Lucario to sleep and then immediately attacked it. Tactical genius. >.> )
I'm... Not sure actually. I think by RAW, no, unless the protect in question is a free action? After all, the action to perform an intercept is a full action by itself, so you'd effectively need to have two actions to both intercept + nullify the damage. So that's what I'd lean towards myself, but what do the rest of you think?So, if a character intercepts an attack, when they're hit can they then use that hit to trigger a defensive move like Protect?

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Dang, Alex would've been a half-decent blocker, having both Protect and Detect. Didn't we decide that interrupts consume your next turn's action, though?

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Yeah, but then we're still stuck with the whole TWO actions to be used things. You'd need a full action to intercept, using your next turn's action for that, but you'd still need another action to activate the defensive move.

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
Yeah, don't think doubling up on Interrupts like that is possible. That said, the Defender Feat would fix that problem - it lets you Intercept as a Shift Action Interrupt, leaving your Standard available for Protect/Detect.

Re: Trinity Isles OOC
And if you're storing your action that turn for an intercept rather than using it? That way you'd have two actions available?
On an unrelated note (Something I won't be using with Alex or his pokemon), is it possible to delay a character's turn when their initiative comes up? For example, if you have the Steelheart class, using a Weapon Attack on an enemy who has hit you this round causes the target to lose a tick of HP. If the Steelheart were faster than the enemy, could they delay their turn in order to take advantage of that? I thought it was, but don't see it in the handbook.
