Dark Heresy: OOC Discussion/Dice Rolls...etc.

[Mikey]

I wanna use the rules Deep made up.

You don't roll for each round in an auto burst; you roll to hit, and each degree of success (full 10 points on the dice roll under the target) indicates another hit, up to the number of rounds in the burst. Ex.: if you had a target of 50, and you rolled a 28, three rounds would hit - one for making the roll + two more for two degrees of success.

BTW, full auto is a full action and aim is a full (I think) action.

[Tyyr]

Aim can either be a half action with a +10 or a full action for a +20.

I'm sorry but how does that work??? I thought I could only engage a single target but that I had to roll for all the shots.

Its half or full. But I (braced) and (aimed) in our surprise round since I was to slow to make a combat action.

Serious or are you picking on me???

OK, I'll buy that.

I haven't looked at the rulebook since Thursday, but I'm pretty sure it's an extra hit per degree of success, like I described. I think you can walk your fire for a penalty, too, but I'm not positive on that, and area overwatch or supression fire have different rules.

Nope, I'm just busting chops. I'm rarely serious.

[Mikey]

BTW, where is the updated map again?

[Tyyr]

In my head.

Well damn, man, where the hell is your USB port?

[Tyyr]

Hey, doing this in my free time out of what little kindness there is in my heart. Cool your jets you I put you in the middle of all four constructs.

[Mikey]

Damn it! I thought I ordered the automatic telepathically-enabled emoticons!

See, that was a joke, because I don't really think that you have a USB port implanted in your skull. See?

Fixed it for you.

That sounds like the scatter rules for a shotgun.

If anyone isn't happy with the position let me know. Except Mikey.
