Character packets:
Missing stuff:
--------------
You may be missing stuff from your packets. If so, GMs will be online
to help you out starting between 1 and 2pm Friday (we'll be in a
cluster somewhere with a printer nearby.)
In particular, your items/abilites/combat cards may not be on
cardstock; we'll have new cardstock hopefully by around 3pm; you can
come trade in paper for cardstock after that time.
Anyhow, either email us a list of what you're missing, or find us
online and tell us about it. We can print anything not-cardstock to a
printer near you if you don't mind blue and green sheets on boring
white paper.
Badges:
-------
badges have a letter on them indicating your apparent ethnicity:
W - white
B - black
L - Latino
A - Asian
Abilities:
----------
- The ability "place person" does not exist; if you got a card for it, throw
it away.
- The ability "break legs" requires your target to be immobilized or
unconscious (not just stunned.)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Rules addenda:
Throwing knives:
----------------
- cannot be used as hand-held martial combat weapons
- ricochets don't count.
- you aren't bleeding and don't need medical attention unless one stuns you;
if you are just injured, but not taken down, you recover normally.
Martial combat:
---------------
- Weapons only add bonuses when used with striped maneuver cards
labeled "WEAPONS ADD BONUS".
- All combat maneuvers can be used anywhere -- yep, that random
bottle, chair, or table, just happens to be sitting there no matter
where you are... it's a Kluge.
The Mess:
---------
- bloody messes, even of one dot, tend to be stumbled accross by NPC's after
about 24 hours, after which they get reported to reporters, cops, etc.
--------
Scenario addenda:
Locations:
----------
- The General Store is the control room - 8-205.
- The Cat's Meow, building 56, is the hotel that blew up pregame.
- The boxing ring, etc, is in 66-110, not 2-190.
Telegrams:
----------
- cost $10. For people who will be at work a lot or whatever and
would like "telegraphy" from work to game, come talk to us and we'll
see what we can arrange.
