Interested? check out the Character Creation thread to see if there is room

Alright finally, here is the game thread, The dice roller we will use is Rolz, For nickname either put your character name or your AG name, the room name is "GURPSAG" no quotes, all caps. The game uses 3d6 for most rolls, with your skills showing the number you have to get UNDER to succeed.

If you don't have a character GO TO CHARACTER CREATION THREAD! Otherwise post your sheet here to start.

yeah you were stabbed twice, but by virtue of your cloth armor you've been saved.


You return to the lines, to find more Parthians still fighting.

there are about 70 Parthians and 100 Helens. So you do an all out attack, what sort of all out attack?

also here is a good picture of the parthians and your own spearmen

yes but there are 4 types of All out attack

â¢Determined: Make a single attack
at +4 to hit!
â¢Double: Make two attacks against
the same foe, if you have two ready
weapons or one weapon that does not
have to be readied after use. Attacks
with a second weapon held in the off
hand are at the usual -4 (see
Handedness, p. 14) unless you have
Ambidexterity (p. 39).
â¢Feint: Make one Feint (see above)
and then one attack against the same
foe. The Feint applies to this attack
instead of one you make on your next
turn.
⢠Strong: Make a single attack, at
normal skill. If you hit, you get +2 to
damage â" or +1 damage per die, if that
would be better. This only applies to
melee attacks doing ST-based thrust
or swing damage, not to weapons
such as force swords.

you have to make it under the number for your skill being used. SO low is good. Also you still need to join the Rolz group
