Folks,

I am trying to get started with Postgres because that is the database
used for the Go Congress data, and I want to be able to get adhoc
management information from it.

I am experience with database programming and SQL, but need help to get
into the program. The tutorials aren't getting me there.

Am hoping one of you out there can spend an hour or two and get me up
and running.

Are you keeping in mind/remembering that the damage isn't a separate roll?

Hi all,

 

I know this is a rookie question, but it's been wrackin my brain lately.

 

If a character is using a hand weapon, are you supposed to use the weapon's damage alone?

 

Eg. A character with say 8d in Body has a base damage of Shock & Killing for unarmed combat, and adds +1 Shock and +1 Killing for hand weapons. So am I understanding correctly that if he uses say brass knuckles, which does W+1 in Shock, he would ultimately do W+1 in Shock PLUS 1 Shock and 1 Killing (due to Body stat)?

 

If that's the case, wouldn't it be better not to use brass knuckles at all and just do W in S&K damage alone?

 

Thanks fer reading.

Summary: most of the cards in a tarot deck have a terminal digit 0-9,
just like a d10. However, using cards means that you can hold a number
of cards in your hand and optimize what you have, pretty much
elminating any whiff factor for small pools. There's more, but this is

For those of us in sunny Chicagoland, I'll probably be showing this

I guess in between, there's certainly room for a Pulp Supers era as well!  <cue Indiana Jones theme music>

That's funny that you say that, my character referenced here basically comes out of a Wild West background (via the CSA cavalry/guerrillas) before he ends up in London.  Basically, the fish-out-of-water Cowboy in the Big City trope.  It's a character concept I developed in Castle Falkenstein, but easily transfers to TFL/Kerberos Club, or other (pseudo-)Victorian settings.  ;-)

If you do it, put me down for one!

You're welcome!

The whole concept is pretty cool, pulling characters up from This Favored Land/Kerberos Club all the way through Godlike. Though if I ever do the TFL sequel that I've been thinking about (supers in the Wild West), the background may require some fudging to make World War II work out like in Godlike. *S*

Awesome!  Thanks, Allan!  I love This Favored Land, by the way...great topic for a setting, and well done!  My head is abuzz with ways to blend it with Kerberos Club's and Godlike's settings to get one long continuity... (all also running smack into my Castle Falkenstein internalizations...)

I'll take a crack at it. It's been a while since I did any WT
character building but I need to get into more of that for our Repo
Men campaign.

Without Distorting, this is pretty easy. Like Teleportation, it's an
ADU power, with A and U having Range capacity and D having Self
capacity. Then add the Mass capacity to each of these, to handle the
fact that you can teleport a certain mass. Add a "non-living item"
flaw to each quality. Then add an additional U quality for the tagging
ability, since that's one more useful thing the power does. This
second U quality would have the Touch capacity.

You can remove the D if you don't want the character to be able to
defend himself by Fetching items (in other words, the character would
have to "defend" himself by noticing an object and declaring that they
are actively taking the object).

The distortion effect is more of a pain, but just a little. First,
create Distortion as a separate ability. Make it an ADU power. Give it
the Attached flaw (attached to Fetch) and the Augment extra. You don't
have to give it the second "U" since tagging the object doesn't
distort it.

Fetch (7)
Qualities: ADU.
Attacks Extras and Flaws: Non-Living items only (-1), Willpower bid
(-1), Mass capacity (+2). Capacities: range, mass.
Defends Extras and Flaws: Non-Living items only (-1), Willpower bid
(-1), Mass capacity (+2). Capacities: mass, self.
Usefule Extras and Flaws: Non-Living items only (-1), Willpower bid
(-1), Mass capacity (+2). Capacities: range, mass.
Useful Extras and Flaws: Non-Living items only (-1), Willpower bid
(-1). Capacities: touch.

Distortion (12)
Qualities: ADU.
Attacks Extras and Flaws: Attached to Fetch (-2), Augment (+4).
Capacities: range.
Defends Extras and Flaws: Attached to Fetch (-2), Augment (+4).
Capacities: self.
Usefule Extras and Flaws: Attached to Fetch (-2), Augment (+4).
Capacities: range.

Distortion is more expensive than Fetch, but you're only going to buy
a small number of dice in it, and add that to Fetch when you want to
distrot something during the Fetch.

The Multiple Hands power stunt is the tricky part. And it's not that
tricky. Just buy additional levels of U. If your Godlike character
could juggle 5 items, just buy U5. Each additional U level (it's a new
level of Useful, not an additional Useful quality) subtracts a
penalty. So juggling 5 items should normally apply a -4d penalty, but
with U5 the -4d penalty is negated.

The Can't Hurt People part, I'd just make it so you can't attack with
it. You can still defend (by throwing one object in the way of another
object) and you'd still have Useful.

I'd go with Mass as the capacity, since it's only in the local area.
Even though he's not touching the objects, he can't attack with them
at a distance (if you want that, add the Range capacity). I'm also
assuming that to defend he has to concentrate, as the objects are just
floating in the air and not actively trying to guard him.

Telekinesis (9)
Qualities: DU5.
Defends Extras and Flaws: Willpower Bid (-1). Capacity: Self.
Useful Extras and Flaws: Endless (+3), Willpower Bid (-1). Capacity: Mass.

> - Detect (People), out to about 100 yards or so, through obstructions,

I'd build it from scratch.

Detect People (4)
Qualities: DUUU
Defends Extras and Flaws: Blind Spot (-1), Willpower Bid (-1). Capacity: Self.
Useful Extras and Flaws: Blind Spot (-1), Reduced Capacity (-1),
Willpower Bid (-1). Capacity: Range.
Useful Extras and Flaws: Blind Spot (-1), Slow (-2), Willpower Bid
(-1): Capacity: Range.
Useful Extras and Flaws: Blind Spot (-1), Willpower Bid (-1). Capacity: Range.

An explanation: The Blind Spot flaw is essentially an If/Then flaw
that says "If the character is in a certain location, the power
doesn't work". The power would be bought with 8 dice, to get about a
mile's range out of it. The first Useful reduces that range to about
100 yards. If the player chooses to "boost" the range, they use the
second Useful instead, which doesn't have the reduced capacity but
does have the slow flaw (takes a round of concentration). And tracking
the target once the roll is made is a useful ability, so it's the
third Useful.

Drop the "D" if you can't use it to defend, just detect.

The Perceive cafeteria miracle works. If you want it "passive" (i.e.
it works without you spending an action on it) give it the Duration or
Endless extra. Superimposed would just be an additional U.

That's just a U power with the Range capacity and the Endless extra.

Yes.

special emphasis on the "Death" part.

See you there!

I attach an overview of the planning process in outline form. Please try
to glance at it before the meeting. It is 11 pages - but a quick read,
as there are a lot of titles (letting you skip the parts that don't
interest you) and the notes are brief, and well spaced.

As has been pointed out, Zipperneck should have been protected from Nullification by his Immunity to everything, if not due to his Heavy Armor, LAR, or his Flight with Defends (which probably didn't beat his attackers 2hd anyway).

I've been thinking about how bypass immunities. The first option is to link an Always On Useful power with an If/Then of only when power X is used for an extra -1. Call the Useful power Bypass Immunity or Ignore Immunity. So, even if your Invulnerable Super-Joe can't have his heart squeezed or mind blasted by Evil Psychic Man's two favorite Non-Physical attacks, EPV can use his Crack Aura NP attack on SJ since it is linked to  Bypass Immunity. This is the approach that makes the most sense to me.

The second possibility is to buy Interference with your Non-Physical attack. This could work, as Immunities seldom have Interference themselves. Have I got this right?

Buying Penetrating for your Non-Physical attack would be very expensive if you plan to confront someone with a bunch of hard dice, like Zipperneck, but might be an option.

I suspect that a clever person could just suggest an Extra that would do this. I'd probably charge +2, just like Non-Physical or Speeding Bullet, but I'd like to hear other ideas about the right cost.

Heck, I'd like any feedback on this subject generally. While I'm willing to criticize ORE at times, it is the main system that I use and I have written very favorable reviews of a couple of the associated world books.

Indeed: "Hyperskills are more narrow than Hyperstats: They have one of

I suppose Greg messed up either the interpretation of Hyperswimming's
Qualities, or which pool the dice come from, or he got everything
right.

This was my assumption from reading the rules, and it makes sense.
However, Greg's example seems clear: "But while I'm in dolphin shape,
I can't warp my flesh defensively or stab like the T-1000, because my
powers are all occupied being a dolphin."

I read this to mean that the character has no dice available for the
Attacks or Defends Qualities of the Miracle.

Here's a set of statements about the core rules of Wild Talents.
Please correct me if you think they're wrong.


Statement 1: Starting simple, it's illegal to have more than 10d in
any Miracle, as indicated in the Essential Edition, page 15.

For example, The Saurian Sciences (The Kerberos Club, page 276) is
against the rules with its 20d+10hd available for Variable Effect
artefacts.


Statement 2: A character with Variable Effect on several Qualities of
one Miracle is lending dice from the same pool (the Miracle's, not the
Quality's) to any temporary powers created with Variable Effect.

For example, Adam has 8d in Cosmic Power and can create both a 4d
Attacks and a 4d Defends power, using them simultaneously in one
scene. He cannot have 8d in both at once, or even do non-Variable
stuff with any other Quality when a Variable Effect has tied up all
8d. (This is indicated at <http://arcdream.com/home/?p=1122>.) It
follows that building several Miracles with Variable Effect is much
more powerful than one Miracle with several Qualities, yet, depending
on Permissions, it may cost the same.


Statement 3: A Quality with Duration, or any of its sibling Extras,
can have only one instance at any moment.

For example, Stolze's Hungarian Death Curse
(<http://arcdream.com/home/?p=1122>) can neither be layered onto a
single target twice, nor be active (whether dormant or doing damage)
on more than one person at any moment. Adam could buy two identical
copies of the Curse as separate powers and dual wield, so to speak.


Statement 4: Finally, for the purposes of Flaws such as Mental Strain,
"every time you use your power" means "every time you roll to activate
that Quality", not "every round/scene that Quality is active" and not
"every time the most recent set used to roll for that Quality is
re-used".

For example, Adam automatically sees the future when he's drunk
(Permanent, Always On), and gets a bad headache from this (Mental
Strain) as well as having to spend Willpower (Precognition) to
"determine" the future. Because his power has If/Then (intoxicated),
Adam takes the damage and pays the Willpower every time the
concentration of alcohol in his blood rises past a certain point,
because starting to meet the If/Then condition of his power forces him
to roll for it; the previous set is not recycled.

Correspondingly, Betsy uses bargain-bin Invulnerability with Endless
and Mental Strain. The set she rolls for it is recycled, so it's been
eight months since she took damage for having to activate it. The GM
is starting to wonder if the Flaw is legal in her case.


I realize that some of the ambiguities here may be intentional and up
to the GM's interpretation on a case-by-case basis. I'd like to know
if that is the intent.

If you can get access to Grim War, there's a character in there called "Multiple Meg" who has a similar type of power.

I had an idea for a character that summons alternate reality clones of himself (a lot of them, actually collapses adjacent timelines so events across them become normalized from that point until they diverge at the end of the scene, takin the duplicates with them) and in the process they bring varying equipment into the scene. This is an expansion of his first power which was basically Ground Hog's Day (5hd of Aces with an "if/then he must be about to objectively fail a stated action", resulting in a time loop where he tries something again and again until he gets it perfect, if anyone has seen the anime Haruhi Suzumiya and the eternal 8 story it's a lot like that- blessing and curse. Just think of how any times you'd have to roll a 5 die pool to get it to come up all tens and that's how many times he has to do something before the cycle breaks.)

That said I'm wondering: if I have say 6d in Mental Constructs with permanent can I attach it to both the Clone and Minions power, right now I'm thinking of attaching Minions to Clone and Mental Consfructs to both, but does this mean every clone shows up with the same knife and every minion shows up with the same lockpicks or can I have them each pop up with varying equipment, or does Mental Constructs just require enough Mass Capacity in one activation to cover the amount of equipment required and any set will make that much of whatever I need (note: the constructs are flawed down to be "mundane equipment" rather than giant robots and jet packs (well, maybe jet packs but not personal plasma cannons and force field generators)).

Aside: this should be a fun RP element because it isn't always "this" version of the PC activating the power sometimes some other him needs a battalion of selves. It should also be fun when a "normal one" gets pulled in and doesn't know what the hell is going on.

I'm unlikely to have time to look it up for at least a week now that GenCon is upon us. Sorry!

Hey all,

 

I was reading through Grim War and came across Audrey "Powerhound" O'Niel (page 109) and thought "Wow, this is freakin' cool!"

 

Now I am trying to figure out how to build her powers to use them as a framework for other mechanically similar abilities. 

 

I have a few ideas, but I thought I would take the easy route and check here first.  Anyone have any ideas?  (Hint, hint Mr. Stolze and Mr. Ivey)

 

Thanks in advance!

I can only speak to my own games but I found the Multiple Actions power as written to be problematic.
