DFRPG / Re: Do you like or dislike the fate system and why?
« on: October 14, 2014, 03:22:14 PM »
I love Fate and DFRPG in general. I have been playing pen and paper RPGs for about 20 years and this is the first one I have truly fallen in love with. I have played several editions of D&D, Shadowrun, Gurps, Pathfinder,  LOTR, Dark Heresy, Vampire the Masquerade,  and so on.

It has enough crunch that rules lawyers and power gamers can shine,  but, the built-in mechanics let a less combat oriented character really shine too. I love aspects and declarations. It rewards creativity and role playing. I just can't seem to get back into any other systems right now. I would love to introduce some of the other groups I play with to DFRPG. It is a blast.

That's what I was leaning towards. Wizard B came back and is as alive and well as ever. A bit scarred from the debacle, but, eh. Not toast.

I did not see law breaker there. I do see Wizard B tossing a mean right hook at Wizard A though.

Yeah, that did happen in game. It was so bad it made me post after lurking for a looooong time.

I'm of two minds on the lawbreaker on that mishap.  Wizard B was of unknown living status. He was phasing in and out of reality as it happened. He could have been dying or already dead. We had just "saved" a dozen people who ended up being dead and THEN turning into outsider puppets ready to eat faces.

Wizard B also isn't dead. The strange nature of the dimension of reality we were in prevented his death in ways unknown.

As a Co-GM with Blackstaff67 and another gentleman I don't think is in this discussion I am at a loss. This isn't clear cut. The whole party was at war with a massive outsider incursion. Massive enough to call in Winter Fey en masse to repel it. Act of War, casualties happen.

Wizard A had no way to know that an innocent would be harmed. Wizard A also could have been justified because everything remotely human nearby was outsider tainted.

We had a similar situation where Wizard B killed a family by accident as collateral damage when he magically caused a car crash, not by hexing. There wasn't a lawbreaker issued there either.

Harry torched a house once.  Warden Morgan's sword didn't snicker snack through Harry's neck.

Fuzzy grey areas.
