Re: GENCON 2019 Official Events

OK Stupid rules clarification

>>>B). Secret of the Warrior: Once per turn, after you roll attack dice for a normal attack, you may reroll ALL of your attack dice once. C). Secret of the Wizard: Once per turn on your turn, before rolling the D20, you may choose to add or subtract 2 from your die roll.

Is "Turn" once per round or once per order marker? You actually take 3 turns per round.

That should mean once per 'activation' (i.e. usually(see below) 3 times per round). So, for example with Secret of the Warrior: One of your 3 Stingers may reroll all attack dice per turn, and you can do that each turn of the round, and for Secret of the Wizard, Braxas can add 2 to the d20 for only one of the three acid breath rolls during each time Braxas 'attacks' (which would be up to 3 times per round).

It isn't necessarily once per order marker, since sometimes you can get multiple 'activations' or turns in one OM, i.e. when knights of weston say 'first take a turn with a human champion'. So with Secret of the Warrior, Gilbert could re-roll attack dice and so could one of the 4 knights of Weston you use that turn.

Re: GENCON 2019 Official Events

OK to continue splitting hairs... the rule only applies to active d20 roles, not reactive d20 rolls.

I would say NO since reactive rolls like Smoke Screen and Engagement strike do not take place on YOUR turn.

Re: GENCON 2019 Official Events

Not that it matters but I agree with the ruling, though it ruins my Army of the Suck I can still use Dead Eye Dan, but my Microcrorp agents are more worthless now

Re: GENCON 2019 Official Events

AS long as I have Jeter's attention and he loves listen to me nitpick, do modified d20 rolls wrap? no not the uber cool Yo! MTV Raps! kind or rappin'.

Example Mike says he's going to modify his roll for his Marro Stingers. he rolls a 19 ...does that then become a 2 and a fatal roll for him?

Re: GENCON 2019 Official Events

This is my official petition to @Matthias Maccabeus to let me into the Old Man Tournament. Clearly I am wise beyond my years and should be allowed in. Consider this compelling piece of evidence showing both experience and foresight: I waited to pack a single bag or pick a single army until around 10pm last night; I managed to finish shortly after midnight! And my flight departs at 6:10am. Surely everyone will agree that no one with such maturity could be under 40 at heart.

Re: GENCON 2019 Official Events

Confirmation from Ken that 40 is 40. There’s someone who’s 3 weeks away from being 40 and he can’t play either.

Re: GENCON 2019 Official Events

As someone who is over 40, I would not have bought a ticket for this event.

Sadly, i'm not going this year : (

I can understand having events for younger players, like 12 and younger, but I don't understand the need or demand for events for older players.

Are the young adults just tired of the old farts like myself?

A must read for all 'Scapers!
