Rizzen, are you saying I can't pick an epicentre for my fireball (which has a radius of 50') 75' away so that my friends and I aren't hit? So do WoT fireballs work completely differently from regular Pathfinder/D&D fireballs? I don't understand. My friends are not within the blast radius, they aren't hit, unless WoT fireballs act in a way I don't understand. Please explain.

FYI, I will be on vacation (Nova Scotia!) starting 6/26 - 7/5. I may also be swamped and posting sporadic between now and then. Please DMPC Fia as needed.

I'm sweating, I'm sweating already! 0_0;
To be honest, I was really sweating when people started tossing Fireballs around in a dry forest - why do you think I stuck to Kiss of the Storm and Freeze for my weaves, backed up by a Fiery sword?

Great...
Though keep in mind we did not really beat them all we just ran away from 2/3rds of them! :-)

Just for clarity's sake, Dengorin. I have no problem with you or your character. But Keelix is far less trusting. Please do not mistake character attitude for my own attitude.

Sorry, I've found my way to Ireland, and connectivity here is brutal... Although not as brutal as Rizzen. Still can't view the map, what's the situation? Apart from the obvious super trolloc, are there many left? Who's leaving? As far as I can gather, Chen, Alatgea, and Rhoekk are staying, is this right? Apologies again, I'n doing my best to keep abreast of the situation!

Analin's Plan B was using Wall of Fire on the forest to keep them from following us. You're all lucky Kodo was around to throw around more fireballs. ;)

Was that a Biblical Cubit, or an Egyptian, Sumerian, Greek or Roman Cubit? Just so we're clear...

ive made my decision.
harden air is subject to weave resistance. in fact, there are a couple more spells that i need to add to the list that state that they are not WR, but instead they should be, based upon the new rules and setting we are utilizing.
spell resistance rule on webpage
the list:
hardened air
pass bond
lightning
riven earth
arms of air
all travelling
cloud dancing*
killing mist
thunderclap*
major healing*
rejuvenate*
the list of weaves that have WR, but shouldnt
grenade
any Illusion weave (if it targets self or an inanimate object. targets another individual it is subject to WR)
sculpting the land*
treading the earth*

100d20 ⇒ (16, 4, 8, 10, 9, 20, 9, 17, 19, 13, 18, 16, 1, 11, 19, 8, 9, 15, 7, 8, 2, 18, 6, 12, 14, 6, 2, 12, 8, 9, 7, 17, 14, 16, 9, 6, 14, 4, 12, 19, 2, 13, 8, 19, 16, 17, 17, 1, 3, 4, 6, 11, 4, 11, 1, 6, 13, 5, 14, 9, 7, 2, 9, 12, 17, 7, 3, 4, 1, 3, 13, 14, 10, 18, 11, 2, 20, 19, 8, 20, 15, 11, 19, 6, 17, 5, 15, 3, 8, 20, 13, 3, 15, 6, 14, 11, 16, 3, 12, 9) = 1045 (4 "20's")
I tried to do 400d20 all at once, but it looks like the dice roller has a 100 dice limit. Since 1/20 results is 20, we should be able to expect about 20 natural 20's out of 400 rolls. Here, the result was exactly 20 natural 20's. There should also be approximately 20 of any other specific number too.
For double '20's', you'll note there is one in the third set. Even more interesting, at the beginning of that same set, there are 4 '6's' in a row. The odds of rolling a specific number 4 times in a row is 32000:1. 8000:1 if you don't care which number was repeated, as here.
On a side note, the most incredible long odds roll I even saw was I roll I made during real-life Cyberpunk game. I rolled 6d10, where 10 is the best value, and 'explodes' (meaning if you roll a 10, you get roll an extra die, and add it in to the total. In front of the entire group I dropped the 6 ten siders and came up with 6 '10's'; odds of occurring, literally 1 in 1,000,000. We all just looked at that and lost our collective minds. (Of course, the roll was for something extremely mundane; I think I was using my Personality skill to try and change someone's attitude while scoping for info at a club; basically a Gather Information check.)

Cyberpunk played that a few times I plan on running a summer set of sessions for my table top group in 5 years :-)

I only ever dabbled in Shadowrun 1 or 2 times. It was an interesting game, but in our attempts it always, always fell apart due to a split between those who wanted decking to be the primary component, and those who wanted to keep it real world. I don't know what edition it would have been back then (90's), but it did not have an effective way of keeping everyone involved. Either the decker was useless, or everyone else was while he was solo gaming. There was a guy in our group who was obsessed with deckers (and real life 'hacking', such as it was in 1995), and would not play anything else. So, the end result was, we did not play Shadowrun.

I love SR. Never made the leap to 4E, though. From what I saw it looked like their effort to update the technology from 80s-future to 2000s-future took away a lot of the grit of the game. I liked the Minority Report-ish AR spam and wireless decking, but I still prefer the pre-Crash 2.0 SR.
Anyway, for anything before 4E, there's no practical way to include decking in a meat run. Just have the decker be an NPC and let the PCs live and work in the physical/mana world. That's the way we always played it, anyway.

I've played ShadowRun, but it was the new version, which was tricky to master.
That, and I did not get along so well with one of the other people involved, so... Yeah.

ive gone the gambit. 2nd through 20th anniversary. was a lot of fun playing both skullcrusha the cleansing orc. had cyber arms with cyber shotguns in his palms. would go around offering healing to those in need, and would lay his hands upon them, offer a prayer and then shoot them. He had a 7 in demolitions, and a 5 in architecture, so he was very good at blowing up buildings. he utilized this knowledge to take out ALL of the mobs in seattle as they convened for a meeting between organizations. Yakuza, triad, italian, latin, etc. He just knocked 3 high rise towers to demolish the high rise that the meeting was taking place.
