Re: animate dead

the horror power animate dead says the horror can "have under control" a certain number of undead. What does it mean? a) there can be at most that many undead created by this horror at any given time? b) all the excess undead are just not controlled temporarily (but can be controlled late...

Re: Earthdawn: Fourth Edition coming in 2014

Thanks for the update Mataxes. After more than 1.5 years of waiting I am excited at the prospect of finally being able to thumb through hard copies of the 4th Ed books. Will I run the game for my group? Honestly? No. Please understand, I think you guys have done a good job updating the rules and I'...

Re: first wound not "free"

Thanks! The bookkeeping aspect is something we dont agree with at all. Of course, we are long-time players, so we are used to the old rules, but i even state, that it makes it "worse" (in the sense that its not bad at all) on the GM's side: a great deal of monsters dont live long enough in...

first wound not "free"

I wonder why the developers thought that overall it would be better to change the penalty from the first wound to -1.

simple actions and initiative

Did i just realize correctly, that for instance the talent "maneuver" is only useful against opponents who are slower, since the maneuvering action is only performed at the users initiative?

Re: Diplomacy

mataxes said "The talent could be used to improve the attitude towards the talent/skill user, but again it just improves attitude, maybe making it a little bit easier to get something you want without having to give up so much in return." and u both seem to agree, that this talent is of li...

Re: multiple targets

thanks!

1) how could i know it from the rulebook?

2) so a foe with high defense "can protect" its less protected comrade from the darts, right?

multiple targets

if earth darts is cast against two targets, how many spellcasting rolls must be made? One against each? Do i have to decide if i use karma separately, so potentially spending one karma on each spellcasting, or only on one, or on none of them?
