Bazlord_Prime Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Was just listening to the latest podcast from the Critical Twits (http://criticaltwits.com/malifaux-troubleshooters-3-first-gg2018-tournament-podcast-94/) Anyway, they're talking about a recent tournament that they attended, and one of their opponents was fielding Som'er. The host was saying that the Gremlin player used "Do It Like Dis!" to put up an aura (he said but I'm pretty sure he meant ), to allow his Stuffed Piglets to use that suit on their Bacon Bomb actions for a guaranteed 4 Dmg each time. Is that legit? Re-reading the two Actions, Do It Like Dis! says: "...add the suit of the discarded card to all duel totals", so that's duels. Bacon Bomb says: "Flip a card that may not be cheated...", so that's not a duel. It's just a flip. Right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sol_Sorrowsong Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 I thought flips were considered simple duels, or is that just when there is a tn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All duels are flips but far from all flips are duels. I think that unless it says it's a duel it isn't basically. Except for standardly formulated actions which have simplr or opposed duels with a Tn and/or a resist stat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cfrag Posted February 6, 2018 Report Share Posted February 6, 2018 (edited) The concept of duel is very well defined in the basic rulebook. I don't know the page, but the explanation is something along the lines of: if you're flipping against a certain value, its a duel. Simple duels are flips against a TN, while opposed duels are flips that are against another flip (usually from the opposing player) Edited February 8, 2018 by cfrag 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sol_Sorrowsong Posted February 6, 2018 Report Share Posted February 6, 2018 I'd got the tn thing being simple duels, guess other flips for triggers and such kinda blended into those in my mind. I'm clear as moonshine now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
