The PCs want to capture at least one knight.
I'm undecided on diversion, stealth or roof climbing so will wimp out and yield to the majority
And sorry, I may not respond tonight. Will try to tomorrow though
OK, I'll set up a post to get the action moving tomorrow, pretty tired at the moment and running out of steam.
I was working late last night and didn't have enough time to put the post together, tonight I will have that post up!
I'll have a post up for you as well Michele.
Too mentally drained from work to get this set up post right. I'll get to it tomorrow morning and if my son decides to wake up early, tomorrow evening.
OK, the preliminary post to get the stealth team into place (or for them to blow the rolls and reveal themselves!) is up.
And, Lightning Reflexes.
Been a while, what's an example of an attack roll? And damage?
Alessandro is using a sword.
Dex 4 + Melee 4 = 8 dice?
Then damage?

Correct!
It's amazing how often I get screwed by the dice across all my games.

I can relate, I have the same problem.
Does Fortitude auto soak?

No, it needs to be rolled.
Does Lightning Reflexes help avoiding damage, like a dodge bonus?

Actually what you possess is Catlike Balance which reduces your Athletics roll difficulties.
No, the only way to Dodge is to Dodge. However, in this version of Vampire, Dodge IS keyed off of the Athletics skill. You can activate Celerity and elect to try and Dodge the next attack. Your difficulty is not reduced though as Catlike Balance works as follows:
You possess an innately perfect sense of balance. Characters with this Merit reduce difficulties of all balance related rolls (e.g. Dexterity + Athletic to walk along a narrow ledge) by two.
This is why the Parkour is strong in Alessandro!
I have both :)
At Dexterity 4, Lightning Reflexes
I wanna pull off some Neo/Matrix stuff... LOL.
Just wanted to make sure it was accounted for, if it doesn't help... so be it.
Activations Celerity... costs blood? That's what I'm trying to avoid for now.
Maybe in the Boss Fight.

Ah, Lightning Reflexes allows you to Count 10s twice on any Dexterity based roll, otherwise 10s only count once.
Celerity is HOW you do Matrix moves! :-)
There may not be a Boss Fight this night.

Does that include Attack rolls? Dexterity + Melee.
Amazing I got this far without knowing all the mechanics!

Correct! So fat I haven't seen any errors in your calculations, if there were I'd add damage dice for you.
Don't worry, Michele has been playing with me for 25 years and he never remembers any mechanics!
I had 2x10's on the first attack and 1x10 on the second.
this is true!
Updates on Saturday, RL super busy ATM.
Weekend ended up being just as busy, updates now.
Botting Ranerius to move Round 2 along.
Sorry, I missed my round.
Welcome back!
@Storyteller Shadow - any chance I'm fighting the leader? Ranking among these 4.

No, they are all footsoldiers of God.
I hope folks are just busy and I didn't break the campaign with my awesome Leadership roll!

LOL, just busy, great roll for sure!
Update here tomorrow!
Rough set of rolls for Onroi there! Jeez.
Is there another Knight Alessandro can help with on the same roof? If not can he jump to another?

See the thread for the DCs. I would recommend jumping to Onfroi's roof, it is closer and the only Knight fighting on the other side of the canal still standing is now outnumbered 3 to 1...
However, the Knight you are engaged with is not out yet, you might want to consider further parlaying with him.
Is that my whole round or is there an opportunity to jump, still (if no one has). DC8 might be tough.

You can still jump to Onfroi's roof with that DC 8
Just waiting on his reaction, Dunstan's location, some response...
You can just say there isn't.
Who exactly was taken? Gender, age and relationship?
Wife and daughter?
Brother (27) for sure. Sister (23), brother-in-law (31), niece (5), and nephew (3).
Wife and child both died before the gane and was part of Lorenzo's fall to his current state.
wall of text, sorry!
RL struck, update now.
Summer cold, I'll post up when I'm feeling a bit better

Feed a cold, starve a fever! Chow time!
RL has me sidetracked still, will try and post tomorrow night.
Sorry, bad two week stretch.
Good luck!
Good luck!
Mostly stabilized now though I had to and have to work a lot this weekend and this week.
I'll respond to you tomorrow Michele, a bit burnt out from the week.
Despite my best efforts, I'll have to work over the holiday weekend as well. However, by Sunday I should be completely caught up and back to daily or at least every other day posting once more.
Alessandro just wants to know where Duncan can be found, where Lorenzo's family is. He's asked a couple of times.
He really doesn't want to include them in any strategy because they'll get themselves killed. He's being kind.
If they want to attack us, oh well. If they want to wait for the next batch and all attack us, that's fine too.
He doesn't really have anything to offer.
Not sure we can identify chain of command, I want the prick that raided Lorenzo's house while we were there.
I'll update tomorrow night.
Second night in a row I had to work late. Tomorrow is 50/50 if I have to work late or not. I will post again no later than Friday evening.
Sorry, almost caught up at work, had to work this weekend. I believe by tomorrow night I should be good to go once more.

Work and family have been kicking my butt, too!
