Re: Anyone else bothered by the armor values?

I think it's important to note that most systems in 4e are simply designed to be approximations of actual values and scenarios. If you're looking for War Thunder type simulation out of a game that was purposefully designed as an abstract system, you're going to have a bad time. I don't say that to ...

Re: Thoughts about Medical Aid.

That's the issue, though. My player isn't a trained medical personnel. Neither am I. So, how would either of us judge whether something is possible or not? Sure, brain surgery in a swamp with nothing but sticks is not gonna happen. But anything in between? How the hell would they know? And how the h...

Re: Thoughts about Medical Aid.

Please don't penalise your players because they're good at something. I'm not. I'm changing the system because it makes no sense. This didn't come about because "my player is too good". It came about because it makes no sense to have a positive modifier on something that should be a neces...

Re: Urban Ops Foundry VTT?

The base Twilight 2000 Foundry System needs to be updated to support Foundry VTT version 11. It will not install unless it is updated. The Twilight 2000 Foundry game system is refusing to install saying it is incompatible with V11 Foundry VTT. The Twilight 2000 core module does install. Found this ...

Re: Urban Ops Foundry VTT?

How did you get the discount? I also pre-ordered the print copy, but I don't see any emails or codes that tell me what to do (junk email empty as well). thanks! It's on the product page: VTT Add-on: If you have previously ordered the print edition from our webshop, simply use the code UrbanOpsVTTAd...

Re: Thoughts about Medical Aid.

I guess the original question was that why is there no penalty if none of the above are used? That was indeed the question. One of my players has A+B in Medical aid... so she'll just roll that and have a 79% (96% if pushed) chance of success... why ever use a medkit of any sort? There's no point. S...

Re: Anyone else bothered by the armor values?

Exactly. I can certainly see this as the -2Bs all being expended by this point, even with increased production n anticipation of the Twilight War. Either way, only one top attack weapon so far in the game. And the TOW-2 still has waaaaaaaaay more pen than needed to wreck the BMP from the front, so ...

Re: Anyone else bothered by the armor values?

Eeeh, I don't know what the heck happened with this post, the quoting system got messed up somehow.

Anyway, reply is in the next post.

Re: Anyone else bothered by the armor values?

Beyond 1000m it certainly does. Source: watching my rounds lobbed downrange and jokes about eating sandwiches while waiting for them to land. Taking a long time to land =/= top down attack. But I'd love to see some footage of you lobbing rounds down range and showing your barrel elevation... I beli...
