In 'Shadow over Innsmouth' about half the protagonist's family (despite being descended from the Marshes) were 'normal', and half seemed to get the Innsmouths look (or trait, predisposition, whatever you'd think of it as).

    Just a detail that wasn't clarified: the rebound damage can't reduce your car's build by more than *the original build of your target*. So, if you're attacking a heavy bike with 3 build, even if the bike currently has 1 build left, your rebound damage can still take up to 3 build points from your car

    It sounds like in theory you COULD have chase scenes with slower pursuers, assuming it was somewhere the PCs couldn't just run through, simply by making the slowest enemy make the base. Though perhaps that is best done by a series of rooms with a implied time limit instead.

    Hey, question. I’m not sure if this is an actual rule or some house rule that I heard, but can Character who have multiple movement actions spend one to get a bonus die on an action that same turn? Also, when doing vehicular fighting maneuvers, do you use the vehicle’s original build size or their adjusted build?

    • @DontStopThinking
      @DontStopThinking  5 років тому

      That's a house rule, but it is fair. It would be more realistic to use the adjusted build. But the book does not directly specify this. The rulebook has tons of optional rules, so it is up to the keeper to implement rules that will make the game more fun.

      roll to negotiate a hazard. 1 movement action buys 1 bonus die, or 2 movement actions buys 2 bonus dice (2 bonus dice is the maximum that can be rolled). "
