Last time on Song of Swords:
Some Audatia cards
New Update Soon
Jimmy single-handedly genocides the uruk race

Song of Swords is a a tabletop RPG centered around realistic medieval fightan' with a ludicrous variety of weapons and fighting styles, centered around a dice pool system. It's currently in beta, and can be used for both fantasy and historical games. The Kickstarter was nearly 300% funded, and we're on the fast track to kicking ass baby.

Call of the Void: Ballad of the Laser Whales is a pulpy sci-fi tabletop RPG about fighting space-nazis and hunting giant whales with harpoons made out of the moon. Its combat system is more modern, based in the early 20th century, but can probably handle combat up to the present day.

MEGA folder containing current version of the game and all supplementary materials.
Note that the latest version of the game is v1.3. The next update will probably be called v1.4.

Here's a wiki detailing SoS's fantasy setting, getting filled up bit by bit as Jimmy reveals more details:
http://tattered-realms.wikia.com/wiki/Tattered_Realms_Wiki

There's also a roll20 room where new players are encouraged to try the rules, test new rules, and find game breaking issues: https://app.roll20.net/join/346755/hRKd4w
If you're looking to learn, post here in the thread.

We also play Guy Windsor's card game Audatia in the room, but now we have a much better way to play Audatia: Tabletop Simulator! The (official!) mod for Audatia is now up and running!

On the humans racial abilities page, it says they get the first 2 proficiencies in their school for free.
In the proficiencies chapter, it says humans buy new proficiencies for 1 arc instead of 3, and also get a free talent.

Which is it?

Am I stupid, or is this slightly confusing? I'm guessing it means 10 months for RS 10, 20 months for RS 11, etc.

Also, for the That Which Stares Back tests, how many hours of analysis are you assumed to be doing per day for the things that take multiple days/weeks? Say for RS 8, is that a week of 8-hour days, and I can get it done faster if I pull longer shifts, at the expense of being more likely to be noticed?

How about with breaks? If I have an RS 6 device (12 hours), can I analyse it in two-hour chunks over a week and not really have to worry about being spotted?

Okay so is there no way for two allies to attack an enemy simultaneously with Engage or Charge or whatever to make sure they can both be in the bout in the same round? It looks like if you want to team up on someone SOMEBODY has to attack them first and survive a Melee Round before anyone else in the initiative order, friend or foe, can join them.
>>
Also I can't seem to find anywhere in the book that actually tells you which advanced maneuvers you can access due to proficiency.
>>
>>54251302
The text on superior maneuvers might be explaining it:

>Superior Maneuvers always count as Advanced, even if the basic Maneuvers were Universal--meaning you cannot use them with weapons that fall outside of the Proficiencies within your School.
>>
>>54251203
That would be correct. I'd assume a GM should allow players in consecutive initiative order or even same initiative act accordingly, but yeah, RAW there is no way using Engage or Charge for multifechten.

Washing machine gameplay is still alive and well
Superior Hew still lets you utterly wreck shields

Thorfirr dual wields a battleaxe and a hand axe. He Double Attack Superior Hewed. The rapier & buckler opponent girl decided to all-in Joint Thrust at the face instead, just to see what would happen. Thorfirr got a combined 5 BS, which meant:
3 SDB + 2c + 2 BS = 7
3 SDB + 2c + 3 BS = 8
7 + 8 = 15 damage, enough to destroy the buckler. History is shit at SoS.

Thanks to all the stun inflicted by the axes inherent Shock combined with the [BS] stun from Hew, the all-in Joint Thrust got only 5 successes, doing a level 2 wound. Face piercing wounds do very little stun, so Thorfirr had dice in Action 2 - bonus dice for Momentum - and singly Swung the battleaxe at the neck. Did a level 4 to the shoulder, essentially ending the fight. Next Round was ~19 dice vs 5, so a Double Attack to the neck finished her off.
>>
>>54255553
It brought up the question of what range you move to when you succeed with a Double Attack with two attacks of different ranges. In this case, it's a battleaxe at Medium and a hatchet at Short. The rules don't say.
>>
>>54255553
I maintain that Shields should enjoy their own AV.
>>
>>54255760
There are different parts at work to shield destruction, and they do not combine harmoniously. Standard Hew reduces a shield's Durability when it hits, but doesn't do enough damage to destroy it outright. The damage inflicted is a fixed number, however, so an axe and a misericord are equally adept at degrading a shield with repeated Hews. Thus, repeated strikes from an awfully weak weapon can destroy a shield. Superior Hew inflicts the full damage of the attack, rather than the fixed value, which enhances the power of large powerful weapons to ruin shields, but leads to situations like this where a metal buckler is ruined with two typical-BS axe swings from a realistically strong man. Thus, only a couple strikes from typical hand weapons can destroy even metal shields.
If shields were to employ their own AV against Hew attempts, without changing anything else, it would be as if their Durabilities were all raised by 6, 8, or 10. Then virtually no one will be able to destroy one in one hit, and hacking away at them with standard Hew would be worthless. There would have to be sweeping changes to get a good system; changing just one thing will mess things up.

Make superior hew regular hew, create a new clause for superior hew, maintain the current system of degradation for attacks that penetrate shield AV in regular combat, maintain the current system for Total Block.
Fixed.

That's actually not there anymore. Shields only lose Durability from Hew.

>Good?
Sort of. I have almost no knowledge of how shield breaks or degredation work in real life - how much force it requires, how often it happens by accident or chance, if a specific attack to destroy a shield is even a thing you can do, etc. But from a gameplay standpoint: If you know their Hew isn't going to destroy your shield, then the only threat caused by the Hew is its [BS] Stun. It's an open invitation to attack the Hewer, as they can't Feint out of it and all they're going to do is some Stun.

>Shields only lose durability from Hew
A gross mistake.

>IRL
To wood shields, it happens, but over the course of an entire battle or engagement. Striking one in twain right out is a feat of legend or legendary figures. Solid metal shields, almost never destroyed, but not immune to damage.

Does Feint still give a +1 TN penalty?
>>
Quick rule check: Is the TN the number that the dice have meet or exceed, or is it exclusively exceed? That is, does TN 7 mean that you get Successes on 7s, 8s, 9s and 10s, or only 8s, 9s and 10s, for example?

Did you notice you have to feint from a swing or thrust proper? It can't originate from any maneuver anymore, only those two. You can still pull off tricks with it.

I didn't even notice it since, for some reason, I never actually used feint outside of regular Swing/Thrust.

The combat is terrible but Jimmy's writing is pretty good. It's actually a bit jarring to see it in something other than 4chan text. Apparently his favorite thing in the world is writing 200+ dialogues for NPCs so that you won't ever see them say the same thing twice.

Jimmy specifically said the Unkindly dodge power stacks with the Ohanedin dodge power, so I assume so!
>>
>>54278145
Humans, goblins, wood elves, and iron elves can consume spawn blood to increase their power.
High elves are too delicate of constitution to tolerate spawn blood, ascendant are prevented by their gods from being sullied so, paleolithic elves are too powerful to take power from spawn, and star vampires already *are* spawn.

So this thing can be taken multiple times, right?

TOU isn't all of a sudden arbitarily capped at 5

Right?
>>
>>54281543
I mean. Usually a boon explicitly states if it can be taken multiple times. Chances are this one cannot. However it is pretty goddamn expensive so if you can convince your GM to let you raise tou by 1 for 8 arc a pop then go ahead. Maybe add a bounded cost to it, double cost for every point you buy.
>>
>>54281543
I hope not. 8 arc is cheaper than if you were to increase your TOU back in the day, since you'd need to pay 12 arc in attributes

What do overlapping skills in packets do? If it's listed twice, do you get two levels each time you buy the packet? And how does overlapping work between two packets with repeating skills?
>>
>>54281543
Boons cannot be taken multiple times unless they say so.

I think it's supposed to be two levels for ones like Surgeon or Hunter, because there's no subclass of Surgery or Hunting.

You must have missed it. The big change here is that you no longer use STR and TOU is no longer (STR+HLT+END)/3. Instead of STR you use STR/2, now called SDB. Instead TOU is fixed at 4, with a +1 or -1 for Robust or Frail, and a +1 TOU for every Dwarf.

If I have two schools, and stop leveling one of them, do I still get its bonuses?
>>
>>54287815
It's strange that after so long, SoS has never had official solutions for how to deal with two schools. I'd do it this way: the schools are like fighting styles. They have their own level, talents, and Superior Maneuvers, even if they have overlapping proficiencies. You pick which you're using at the start of each Round, just as in previous editions you'd pick which Proficiency you're using with your weapon at the start of each Round. (People didn't do that often, but it's one of the benefits to having a Spear,Polearm or Dagger,Sword.) So the two schools would be entirely separate and only be in effect when you choose to use them. That's probably not realistic at all but it is playable.
