Tomb Team C Planning

[Dai]

The Crank: Needs Athletics/Strength or Engineering/Intelligence - cumulative TN40, reduces The Gate TN by 20

The Incantation: Needs four raises called across successful attempts, raises not limited - Spellcraft/Intelligence or Calligraphy(Cipher)/Intelligence - TN15, Reduces The Gate TN by 20

The Shogi: Needs Investigation/Perception or Battle(Skirmish)/Perception - cumulative TN40, reduces The Gate TN by 20

The Mirror: Forgery/Agility or Acting/Awareness vs opposed roll of the same including personal bonuses but not including helper phantom ranks - Reduces The Gate TN by 15

The Portrait: Games: Sadane/Awareness or Lore: History/Intelligence - TN40 but reduces by 5 each attempt, reduces The Gate TN by 20

The Fighting: Kenjutsu/Agility ('combat') - TN15, but not beaten until 50 wounds dealt, reduces The Gate TN by 15

The Gate: Needs Sleight of Hand/Agility or Commerce/Intelligence - TN120 minus any reductions

We have 18 time units across four people. Benefits for completing it with only 15 or 11 time units

Anyone can use a time unit to assist another character - giving them a phantom skill rank.


Dai is well suited for Shogi (7k3) and has 4k3 for Crank rolls
After that he has Intelligence at 4 and all other pertinent traits at 3 but no skill so would either need to be given a phantom rank or use his time slot to give ranks to others.

My intention for the first round is have him take a crack at Shogi unless someone has a much better dice pool because a lucky roll might break it in one.

[Mirumoto Shigure]

Shigure has Daredevil and void 3 and my athletics roll would be 8k4 if voided.

Investigation 5k3

Kenjutsu 7k4 up to 3 raises for extra damage and 6k2 DMG

[Otomo Koroshi]

Anything with Intelligence or Agility.

[Kuni Sumie]

So, again...

1. The Crank Puzzle: 4k3/5k4 for Athletics
2. The Incantation Puzzle: 4k3/5k4 for either one
3. The Shogi Puzzle: 3k3/4k4 unskilled
4. The Mirror Puzzle: 4k3/5k4 for Forgery
5. The Portrait Puzzle: 3k3/4k4 unskilled
6. The Fighting Puzzle: 3k3/4k4 for Katanajutsu and 6k2 for damage

Eh, I guess I can Mental Quickness for +1 Intelligence at 5k3 vs TN15 or I'll just pat someone on the back for +1k0, tell them they're doing great and all that. You know, teamwork bullshit.

Also, Reversal of Fortunes for 3 rerolls at 5k3 vs TN15

[Dai]

Ok I'm going to start with the shogi then.

I'll follow up with Crank or Fighting if they're not completed then I'll help others.

[Mirumoto Shigure]

I have to solve something in D9 and I will try the crank

[Otomo Koroshi]

The Incantation has been solved.

[Mirumoto Shigure]

If I join in Crank was not passed...

[Mirumoto Shigure]

Ok I'm going to start with the shogi then.

I'll follow up with Crank or Fighting if they're not completed then I'll help others.

We now switch I try Shogi and you try at the crank should be now easy.

The Crank Puzzle must have a set TN, rather than a Cumulative TN, so going for TN40 will actually result in a fail rather than contributing 38 to the TN40. Was your intention to aim for TN40 or split it between your team members?

[Mirumoto Shigure]

I was aiming for a split because I knew that I wasn't going to hit it.

[Boogiepop]

I was aiming for a split because I knew that I wasn't going to hit it.

Please indicate in the TN number or description how much you're rolling. I'll allow you to have a redo.

[Mirumoto Shigure]

Okay... I shall do.

[Mirumoto Shigure]

I made the roll tag more specific

D10 EE Tomb The Crank shared Athletics STR GM approved reroll 1 VP Daredevil aiming for a TN 25 of 40 | 8k4 ⇒ 31 (TN: 25)

[Boogiepop]

Okay! You should copy and paste that to your post, thanks!

Sumie will attempt to finish it off with 5k4!

[Mirumoto Shigure]

shall I try shogi?

[Boogiepop]

I'd say go for it!

[Dai]

For some reason I thought I had taken at least one rank in kenjutsu but apparently not. So I won't be great help fighting.

I'll take a crack at The Portrait - I'm unskilled but with the canteen there's a slim chance of success on a 5k5 and, if not, it will lower the TN for the next person.

After that I'll either keep trying on it or add a skill to someone else if they need it

[Dai]

If I'm not around feel free to ghost towards either of those ends as needed.

[Dai]

Looks like Koroshi has Lore: History so he should be able to finish off the portrait this round on his action. If so do we try to finish one more or start pumping for the gate?

For the gate Intelligence makes the most sense due to the mental quickness buff unless someone has Agility 5 or lots of Sleight of Hand.

If Koroshi finishes the portrait this turn, and we decide to tackle the gate, it makes the most sense to target him with the phantom skill boosts since I have to act again before the next round (so can boost him).

Then it's just about how many ranks of skill we want to give him versus time units left versus the TN.
