Yeah, I found that exact configuration from my dropbox archive folder. It was literally from May 2011.Agamemnon wrote:I must have pulled an old version of the chart when I made the character sheet.
Duly noted, but remind us of this when we have the print out!EinBein wrote:Besides: I would offer to translate it to German if you like
Well, yeah. A game has got to have a focus.EinBein wrote:Just noticed that education and engineering sound like skills with a vast scope.
Basically we looked at the stories our engine was meant to be telling and went on from there. Can't do much worse if you want to tell dynamic stories, but the rules include an engineering/farming/etc sim.
That is such a huge swath of territory to cover, man. I've been itching to dig into naval rules since we started this bloody project, but it'll take weeks if not months of raw research just to educate ourselves on the particulars to pull it off in a convincing fashion. This is doubly so when you consider the way the focus would have to work. The primary focus would obviously be on renaissance-era naval warfare, because that's the setting implied by the core book. Of course, what everyone is very likely going to want to use the book for is Age of Sail pirate shenanigans - so the book has to convincingly portray two very different styles of naval warfare and technology (to say nothing of possible earlier naval stuff - viking longships, greek triremes).thirtythr33 wrote:But what about my beloved naval warfare codex?
Perception is already a derived value, composed of Acumen and Cunning.Korbel wrote:RANGED: AGILITY + PERCEPTION
That, my dear friend, is Agamemnon's way of spelling TN9. And yes, it's long been fixed.Korbel wrote:"TN10v" - what does it mean?
No need to feel bad about it. Feedback is always such a motivational boost. And a motivational boost is never late, nor is it early, it arrives precisely when it means to.Korbel wrote:I must say I really like this character sheet (yeah, I know my Reflex is very, very low, commenting only now).
Band of Bastards Beta 0.1 wrote:Strength (St)
Strength represents a character’s overall physical power and muscle mass. It plays a part in many physical skill checks as well as determining damage dealt in melee combat.
Agility (Ag)
Agility is a measure of a character’s nimbleness, balance, and hand-eye coordination. It is a frequent component in physical skill checks that require any kind of precision and plays a significant role in calculating a character’s combat prowess.
Stamina (Sm)
Stamina represents the general health and physical ruggedness of the character’s physique. Stamina governs everything from the ability to resist damage or toxins, to the capacity for healing, recovering from illness, and length at which a character may undertake strenuous activity before experiencing adverse effects.
Speed (Sp)
Speed represents the character’s ability to both project fast-twitch muscle force for motion as well as a measure of how quickly their body responds to and can carry out commands. It’s obvious uses plug into the Athletics skill, but it also is a key figure in reaction time, and plays a role in combat as well.
Acumen (Ac)
Acumen represents a character’s intelligence, reasoning and the ability to learn. Acumen is useful for any character type, but it is of particular importance for those who rely on knowledge-based or scholarly skills. Acumen also directly affects Perception.
Cunning (Cu)
Cunning represents a character’s quick thinking and mental resourcefulness. It governs awareness, intuition, and speed of thought. Cunning plays a part in many skill checks, but is also of particular importance in calculating Perception rolls and the character’s combat ability.
Willpower (Wp)
Willpower represents a character’s mental fortitude and self-discipline. It plays a key role in many resistance or discipline based checks, as well as some skill rolls.
Social (Sc)
The Social attribute covers a number of related, but often hard to define elements. It is an overall representation of a character’s charisma, bearing, personal appeal and social intelligence. The Social attribute is invaluable for skill checks to influence, lead, bargain or manipulate. As well, a character’s interactions with others in the world may be influenced by their Social attribute, just as people tend to form opinions and biases quickly in the real world.
