#

also, it sucks that the word symmetrical isnt symmetrical

#

feels like we had a prime opportunity and missed it

#

should we get in a vc a little bit early so we can introduce ourselves and establish like boundaries?

cerulean smelt Dec 21, 2023, 1:15 PM

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 1:15 PM

#

isnt the session in less than an hour?

#

or do i have the timing wrong?

#

cause yours is also already on friday

cerulean smelt Dec 21, 2023, 1:22 PM

#

yeah I'll need to readjust the damn times

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 1:22 PM

#

@cobalt sonnet, you should maybe check the when2meet to make sure timing works out the right way

cerulean smelt Dec 21, 2023, 1:23 PM

#

I fixed it

#

man ://

#

thats embarassing sorry again y'all

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 1:24 PM

#

@raven socket, we are having some timezone errors

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 1:24 PM

#

wait uh

#

whats going on here?

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 1:25 PM

#

its 2 am for ash

#

due to time zone nonsense ash either didnt realise or had their time thing moved from 3 pm for them, to 3pm for atleast me

cerulean smelt Dec 21, 2023, 1:26 PM

#

When picking the times I had the timezone set to the correct one

#

But it must've changed at some point

#

is it thursday for you ash?

#

i could do that

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 1:33 PM

#

that could be nice

#

not my place to sway any decision making

#

im on break so i dont really need to care about a sleep schedule

raven socket Dec 21, 2023, 1:34 PM

#

Gonna sleep some more
Ping me if you figure something out, I can make most any time work (for me) if needs be

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 1:34 PM

#

@cerulean smelt are you available on friday?

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 1:36 PM

#

yeah i have work that day

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 1:36 PM

#

we should establish in writing this time when we are going to do the session hopefully

cerulean smelt Dec 21, 2023, 1:37 PM

#

issue is tho

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 1:37 PM

#

solution: i have added my chunk of time to the sheet

#

cerulean smelt Dec 21, 2023, 1:37 PM

#

the time when I am available is when eisen is sleeping

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 1:37 PM

#

youre listed as available for this time near the bottom

#

if youre not tellin fibs

#

we should be good

cerulean smelt Dec 21, 2023, 1:37 PM

#

3pm-6pm

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 1:37 PM

#

yeah it seems like things are lining up

#

the rats have cobbled themselves together into a new shape

cerulean smelt Dec 21, 2023, 1:38 PM

#

lemme check the when2meet once more I'm getting paranoid

#

and I think we should let her sleep for now

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 1:39 PM

#

yeah, she just wanted me to ping her if we found a solution

#

as i get older its always so weird to think about how i can talk to people in literally completely different time zones from me

cerulean smelt Dec 21, 2023, 1:40 PM

#

#

it's Friday for me now

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 1:40 PM

#

okay

#

so technically, you have the session today

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 1:41 PM

#

#

it is thursday for me now

rain topaz Dec 21, 2023, 1:41 PM

#

and i have it tomorrow morning

#

timezones are weird

#

personally feels like confusing worldbuilding

#

okay, we should go down and confirm the time for each of our zones

#

i am 3am to 7am on friday, CET time

cobalt sonnet Dec 21, 2023, 1:43 PM

#

winged hamlet Dec 22, 2023, 5:31 AM

#

If this is the correct place to ask, I had some quick questions concerning some Terk Mech and Tech frames

#

Firstly I was curious if there was some major benefit to the Clarent, I can see the accuracy bonus and how it may stack with the edge alignment mod, but was wondering if there was something I may be missing.

#

Secondly, I was wondering what the main loop would be for a Mordred

covert surge Dec 22, 2023, 5:37 AM

#

You stack a bunch of things that are normally 1/round because its tied to 1 weapon onto a weapon that can swing twice and trigger executioner on both

#

Autostab trigger twice, most mods trigger twice, fish extremely well for exectutioner 2 etc

winged hamlet Dec 22, 2023, 5:41 AM

#

Oh my

#

Sword go whoosh indeed

#

…

#

OP caliber

wraith birch Dec 22, 2023, 5:44 AM

#

Also you can stack with edge of tomorrow if you prep while you get into range for a barrage with the clarent plus an extra skirmish or other quick actions.

covert surge Dec 22, 2023, 5:51 AM

#

Sadly op caliber is 1/round

#

Thermal charge however does not have round limitation, only limited

#

Engineering wink wink

#

The main loop for mordred is shrimple

#

It has a heavy mount

#

Its trait let it skirmish twice if you land the tech attack and are willling to take a hit (3 armor lmao)

#

If enemy are slightly out of range 3 you can do like a lock on or basic invade to pull you or the enemy closer into a mort range

#

Also, unlike skirmish, quick tech can be repeated by using a full tech

#

This gets around Asura’s actions still having to obey duplicate action rule

#

Letting you skirmish twice and barrage with an asura w/out overcharge

#

Load up on melee/cqb and go to town

winged hamlet Dec 22, 2023, 6:11 AM

#

Neat, so it’s another 4 attacks a round kind of deal if you take some Sherman levels.

covert surge Dec 22, 2023, 8:06 AM

#

Yeas but it is a bunch of hoops to go through (range, hitting the tech attack, hitting the actual attack)

ornate verge Dec 22, 2023, 8:45 AM

#

So ran that extraction .List is as follows: ips-n stealthy boy, Duskwing, Shotel(in case of OHGODOHFUCKOHSHIT), and the Anansi with it's anti-hyperfauna sniper rifle that also has a suppressor. It was an extraction sitrep with an Artillery Bombardment secondary. And it went swimmingly right up until evac. Due to fucky rolls they got spotted with the principal( a karrakin noble woman who was kidnapped), things went south hard. The only reason why they pulled it off was because the Shotel came screaming in hard and fast, literally buzz sawing his way through a horde of legionnaires(grunt archetype. They come in squads of four but have the same relative power as a striker grunt) with his laser chainsaws while the Anansi played the most dangerous game of hide and seek/tag with a custom NPC that had a short spool lance. The gorshkov did fantastic though and was able to keep folks moving with it's bevy of explosive options while the Duskwing kept the extractee moving/covered. The Shotel died 1vs1 a fuckin Ronin boss and almost killed him and the Anansi had got a mech grade sun tan but killed the custom sniper.

#

Target still got rescued though

#

Best part was the shotel pilot asking for music when he came in. His request? The Witch from Mercury.

#

I love my party. They're a bunch of fuckin lunatics

Was Gorshkov not annoying to gm against? Its my primary concern for a hide focused frame

ornate verge Dec 22, 2023, 9:02 AM

#

I mean......he did his job well. Just got dinged by a stupid lucky Search roll. Overall it wasn't too bad. I mean yeah him dipping in and out of hidden/invis caused chaos like you wouldn't believe and he did some mean shit with that 2 meter spike of steel. But he wasn't godly annoying.

would the realspace breach follow the dragontail, considering it is a burst template?

covert surge Dec 24, 2023, 10:30 PM

#

i need to figure out a wording that's all inclusive 😭

#

" This Burst is not on-going, even if the Blast is, and if it would cause you to be unable to occupy the space, you are moved to the nearest available space. "

#

also changing frunds zwei wording to this to clarify a bunch of confusion caused by the burst wording
so Executioner 1 would not let you attack with cleave (because ordanance)
Executioner 3 would re-roll only the single attack roll that missed, not fire in a burst again.

Okay here’s a very silly one. Could a Kishka (with fomorian frame) lift a frundsburg, then the frundsburg uses the “free action to begin falling” on its turn from crashing blow to get extra damage?

#

The Kishka is the one that controls the movement, but falling seems like a weird territory there on whether it can control it

covert surge Dec 27, 2023, 6:01 AM

Fuck it, yes, super wacky combo that takes a corepower and a bunch of action is ok by me

since it counts as a zone technically

rain topaz Dec 27, 2023, 11:11 AM

also, do targeting beacons count as deployables?

#

cause if not, it feels like they maybe should

rain topaz Dec 27, 2023, 11:37 AM

also, when it comes to phoenix flare, is it creating a like, "burst 4" ring or a "burst" 3 ring

(basically, are there 2 empty spaces between you and the flares, or 3 empty spaces?)

rain topaz Dec 27, 2023, 12:04 PM

(btw, nexa, my apologies, but im doing that thing again where i dig through a license with a fine tooth comb, so im sorry)

wraith birch Dec 27, 2023, 12:10 PM

#

I don't think targeting beacons are meant to be deployables.

#

It says it just marks a space. It doesn't really deploy anything.

#

Also it's infinite, as long as there's only one active.

rain topaz Dec 27, 2023, 12:17 PM

#

yeah i dont think tis currently a deployable

#

its just the a lot of it is written like it should be a deployable, right down to it being a thing you deploy

#

also, for the Kishka's core power, would it be easier to just say that the attached ally is considered immobilized while they are attached to you?

#

also, is the reaction in the core power supposed to ignore the range of the angler missile?

#

welp, i should go eat food

you probably should

covert surge Dec 27, 2023, 1:58 PM

Hecaton counts for the QA
targetting beacon isnt a deployable, it does not take up space
phoenix flare range is counted like you would count range for ranged weapons
Kishka core use similar wording to goblin and to avoid certain things like WW suddenly gaining perma kinetic resist
the core pew pew still obeys range

on the arthur:

#

excessively high base heatcap for a frame incentivized to repeatedly overcharge (that is, minimal engineering investment makes nukecav setups risk-free and adds bonuses to it from in-license systems), double barrage + ASURA makes a mockery of action economy once a build actually comes online, executioner synergy with the core weapon + tokugawa extended batteries is extremely questionable, nanocarbon sword action economy is equally absurd on a finished build, so on and so forth.

the other standout option at ll6 is sekhmet arthur, which does similar things to action economy

#

I know that might seem excessively harsh, but I wish to state that I'm quite aware of the problem with testing homebrew as it stands - it's hard to playtest four frames, never mind fifteen! The thing that just most often comes up with Terk licenses is that they're balanced in-license.

#

When you start grafting other licenses into them after LL2 (in the Arthur's case, the optimal builds want nanocarb over Clarent) or LL3, edge cases that wouldn't typically cause issue are significantly magnified in scale.

raven socket Dec 28, 2023, 5:57 AM

#

Yeah, I getcha
Harsh, honest feedback is fine (and welcome), especially for a supplement of this scale

eager gull Dec 28, 2023, 5:57 AM

#

For example, the most recent release (the IPS-N flier) has a beacon that creates a massive area of difficulty on saves and checks for just 1SP. That's completely inoffensive in-license...

#

... and becomes utterly broken for the cost outlay with Gilgamesh's SPEAR Charges, Sunzi's Blink Charges, Burn checks, clamp bombs...

#

In most cases you just take the system and put it on an Iskander.

raven socket Dec 28, 2023, 5:59 AM

#

Honestly, this is great feedback so please feel free to lay on as much feedback as you have (and are happy to share)

eager gull Dec 28, 2023, 6:00 AM

#

When designing licenses, it's generally really important to take a step back and go "if I was building it at LL6, what else would I put on it?" as well as "If I was looking at several popular build archetypes (I usually do "conventional melee striker, long-range artillery, something with a Loading weapon, a Burn build, a Vanguard CQB build, and something with mines/grenades" if I don't have any techs/hacker tools, then look at Goblin hack memes if I do), what would these systems or weapons do to change them?" That'll hand out hints to you what the potential problem cases that crop up could be, and what you might need to do to address the issue.

Wait why is Asura a problem it goes from double skirmish + barrage with OC to double barrage + skirmish with OC by sacrificing your skirmish last turn

runic torrent Dec 28, 2023, 6:35 AM

#

as far as im aware you cannot double barrage even with asura

eager gull Dec 28, 2023, 6:35 AM

#

Setup turn OC Bolster + Hide + Charge, "action" turn barrage + asura skirmish + OC barrage + 12 spaces towards your target (full agi investment, asura boost + move); with TCB (I said HCB earlier, my mistake), that's ~7d6+1d3+11 AP damage (average 38) before factoring in Executioner splash/Autonomous Edge Alignment Reliable, from a noninteractable position (Hidden) up to 21 spaces away across the board (threat 3 on the TCB with exbatteries).

If you don't need an extra 6 movement, you can also just drop a Charging Nexus down with the OC instead of doing a Bolster, get another +1d3 damage while still maintaining a threat range of 15 spaces.

#

I honestly think the Sekhmet one is probably still better, though.

covert surge Dec 28, 2023, 7:09 AM

#

double barrage + skirmish (assuming Charged Blade on main since AP) is 6d6 + 1d3 + 11 average 34, where is the other 1d6 coming from?

eager gull Dec 28, 2023, 7:17 AM

#

NC

covert surge Dec 28, 2023, 7:20 AM

#

for 2 OC and Asura you can do HCB + CB for 5d6 + 1d3 + 15 for an average of 35 so edge gives you an avg of 3 more damage in this specific set up, the other value bits comes mainly from TCB itself being threat 2/3 w exbatt and interacting with Exe

#

but I will probably clamp the bolster thing to just a flat 3 instead of scaling w speed though in case of full agi giving too much mobility

#

and change AEA to (whichever is higher) in case of native reliable instead of stacking

eager gull Dec 28, 2023, 7:26 AM

#

That's a reasonable change to make. I'm honestly not sure if there's much you can do about the TCB version without fully revising Edge of Tomorrow, which is... not really a thing that can be done.

So he had Frundsberg, Nelson, and Akrefena as his licences. And had the NHP from the Akrefena. It's known for telling it's frame's pilot how to get the most out of the frame while also pushing pilots to bypass normal safety measures. Which considering how dumb a limiter removed nelson can get especially a flight type

#

That man hit near super luminal speeds and crashed straight into the Ship's bridge Zweihander point first

#

Three of the Seven players survived the one shot. The atlas, the Jian, and the caliban. The Flight type Nelson died kamikaze the capital ship, the Chambi died in an Artillery duel with a Cannonade NPC who had the anti ship charge rail(was still a mutual kill), the Brudenell got into a punch fight with a Megafauna that got brought along and died after dealing with it, and the Shotel died holding a choke point using his laser chainsaws and plasma cannon.

dusky escarp Jan 2, 2024, 12:18 AM

#

@covert surge so, this is touching a bit old material, but right now the caestus reads as an infinite damage interaction

The rules look a little something like this:

Even without a 1/turn, a reaction is by default limited by the fact that a character can only take a single reaction each turn (two if you're a Gorgon).
The reaction granted by the weapon states that it does not account for the reaction limit, meaning that without an explicit limiter like 1/turn or 1/round the reaction can be taking as many times as the player wants, provided the initial trigger of the reaction is met.

maybe it's worth putting a 1/turn on that one?

I can attest to this, not one character in the cantina is normal.

covert surge Jan 2, 2024, 4:10 AM

#

The limiter is people trying to stand up, which takes your standard movement, which character gets 1/round

#

The caestus does not stop them from standing up, it just knocks them back down again, so the movement is consumed

#

So in 90% case its 1/round, unless you are adjacent to multiple enemy that are prone, then its once per each turn that the enemy mech tries to stand up

the problem is lancer doesn't have a duplicate action limitation for reactions innately, so you can react as many times as you wish to a singular trigger, so it needs a limiter

#

otherwise, it is possible to stack infinite reactions on one trigger so the resolution looks like this:
target stands up > caestus is triggered not consuming the reaction > caestus is triggered not consuming the reaction > caestus is triggered not consuming the reaction > caestus is triggered not consuming the reaction > caestus is triggered not consuming the reaction >... caestus is triggered not consuming the reaction > all caestus triggers resolve

cobalt sonnet Jan 2, 2024, 5:14 AM

ain't how reactions work in this game

#

okay, normally they do

#

however, "does not count against the reaction limit" fully circumvents all stops in this wording

covert surge Jan 2, 2024, 5:28 AM

#

The reaction limit is the 1 reaction per turn

dusky escarp Jan 2, 2024, 5:29 AM

#

which you fully circumvent

#

caestus explicitly says it does not have to obey that limit

covert surge Jan 2, 2024, 5:31 AM

#

It circumvent the “mech can take 1 reaction per turn” not the first paragraph

dusky escarp Jan 2, 2024, 5:32 AM

#

so it is a 1/round

#

the first paragraph does say "your next turn"

#

also, i believe it still falls under "specified otherwise"

#

to be fair, it doesn't help that the game defines reactions in two separate places

#

more so, you can take repeated same actions in a turn, if they're free or reactions

#

either way, even if it is inteded to be a once a round, a clearer statement of that would be better

So, potential major issue with the Frundsberg: Blade Guard + Superheavy Mounting + Tempest + Atlas. You get 18 evasion (20 with SSC core bonus) and can basically always have 3 armour, making you nigh-impossible to hit and making it hard to damage you with what does get through.

Question I have for the Blackjack Cabled Dagger!

It says that, when you hit with the weapon, the target records its distance from you and cannot move such that its distance from you exceeds the recorded distance. This is all well and good, but what would happen if you, say, tether a mech that is three spaces away from you, and then you move two spaces away from it? Is the tethered mech now just unable to move, because no matter where it moves it would always be beyond the initial recorded distance?

RAI is it can’t move such that the distance between it and the user increases

Since the kishka can hover there seems like a little weirdness with kishka and pheonix flare.

Enlightenment does, it just doesn't count towards the limit

#

The only NHPs that don't give the tag are like core systems, like Watchdog (which is more of a Comp/Con probably) and Orochi and thats cause the fact they're ai is flavour rather then mechanical

Enlightenment is a talent, not a system you need to physically install in your mech

#

And you can't install multiple systems that give the AI tag

The Enlightenment-Class NHP has the AI tag as per the rulebook.

But not in comp/con, according to Uncle

Some of us did a ll6 1 shot with some terk mechs. We had a mordred, Kishka and a white witch (no terk systems)

#

Kishka did very good work with nexus slinging and dealing good burn people. It absolutely dunked on two aces and some grunt hornets. It had some very good consistent damage even at long range, though had a little bit of action economy loss when it had to actually use an action to put difficult terrain on people as opposed to getting it as a reaction

#

Makes an interesting dynamic of “you don’t want to shoot the Kishka because then you come the next target”

#

Mordred did clarent things, but I missed a mort every time I tried that. Still had fun barraging people and got lots of executioner procs.

#

It didn’t happen in game, but we did realize full chassis reinforcement on white witch makes it nearly unkillable

though to be fair i think the canon answer is that's not a 'flavored' nhp just an ai with the same gameplay effects?

raven socket Jan 17, 2024, 8:41 AM

#

It's an NHP, we just couldn't give it the AI tag due to comp/con limitations

#

(afaik)

for all mechanical purpose its an NHP

@covert surge Hey terk, need a ruling - How does this interact with Reverse Guillotine?

1/round when the Orchis causes a character to collide with another obstacle or character, you can - in addition to any other effects - throw your mech's scuta shield at that character, dealing 3 kinetic damage and rendering them unable to take reactions until the end of their next turn. The shield then returns to you. This effect doesn’t take an action or reaction to activate.

cerulean smelt Jan 23, 2024, 7:28 AM

#

It's been a hot minute, but I managed to slip in another playtest with a oneshot one of my players ran (I finally got to play!!!)

#

I played an Arthur, another player used Gorshkov and two players used Frundsbergs

#

Arthur is unbelievably fun and I love the fact it doubles as a support

#

and the extra long threat range on the X-Caliber Plasmacore is the icing on the cake, really helped reach those extra hard targets

#

Gorsh was absolutely terrifying, but so beautifully balanced

#

That little benefit for everyone else in it's cover was excellent

#

Not much I can say about Frunds beyond it was an absolute powermove having two titans walking across the map

covert surge Jan 23, 2024, 7:39 AM

#

All i can think about w 2 Frunds is those two guard in front of the palace who cross their polearm when the protag tries to enter

#

Which w 2 pike wall you can basically do since it turns the space between the two basically uncrossable

I do think we might wanna redesignate the Arthur as a Striker/Support rather than just a striker

Possibly

#

It's really a lot more of a striker than a support, tho

cerulean smelt Jan 23, 2024, 7:55 AM

#

It's def supportive, just not quite enough to designate it as anything else beyond a Striker

#

Hopefully I could test out my Bat King soon and see how flying drones affects play

Fingers crossed that it won't be broken 🤞

#

For a less vague answer it's def worth trying out more outlandish stuff with it I reckon

#

Particularly stuff that allows for mobility, Gorsh really seems to benefit from GTFO and find a place to hide as Big Smoke™ generates

#

Honestly might just try out a Death's Head Gorsh combo just to see the lengths it can go
