    I miss my Mossling deck, or "Fungus Among Us" as I dubbed it.

    For anyone not familiar with rolling a 1 or a 20, no modifiers are applied to that. It is a Critical.
    Therefore you can think of it as a pass/fail situation. Roll a 1, and you pretty much fuck up on whatever you were trying to do. Roll a Natural 20, and you are GOD OF GODS haha, you pretty much pass the challenge.

    So in the instance that I just rolled, I don't perceive shit.

    More or less. In combat, yes, absolutely a 20 is a crit with guaranteed hit and double damage.

    Sometimes there will be ability checks that require greater than 20 to achieve, depending on exactly what you're doing. So while for the most part I'll be using 20 in the same manner, be sure to tell me if it is a NATURAL 20.

    It's really simple to forge a quotation in this forum's simplified BB coding system.
    just type the following:

    Code:
    [quote=someone's name]
    blah blah blah
    [/quote]

    I forgot to add my normal feat so went ahead and did so if that's alright, it has nothing to do with the fight we're in now.

    You both had 21, yes? He has higher Dex, so he takes first spot.

    Right-o.

    I'll be waiting for EVERYONE to post their actions before I process the round. This keeps the back-and-forth to a minimum, and should a target die, then I'll pass the attack on to the next one. If there's something curious, then I'll contact the player directly for updates.

    Lesson time!

    Tolr'ax & Jamros, for an attack roll, you roll the dice + proficiency (if you're proficiency with the weapon you're using) + appropriate ability modifier (and whatever other effects you might have, such as Rage). This looks good from you guys. Strength for most melee - unless a finesse weapon - and Dex for most ranged.

    When you roll damage, however, you roll the die appropriate for that weapon + ability modifier (and whatever other effect, etc). You do NOT add proficiency to damage dealt. The proficiency is in hitting the enemy, not how hard you hit them.

    In some situations, I'll make adjustments to the rolls as needed as you guys aren't aware of certain things until the action has been taken. It happens, no big deal, and I'll explain as I do it so you - and your character! - are aware. In some cases I'll even call for a Perception roll or whatnot to determine if your character notices.

    But for now, we await our fellow combatants!
