So I could ask if Endurance applies, and if so, then while I wouldn’t get the +2 from the skill, I would get a +2 from the edge?

I personally feel like it would, but I am trying to build an Elementalist.

Draw Steel friends, I have a question about the human trait Perseverance.

It says: "You gain an edge on tests made using the Endurance skill."

If you don't have the Endurance skill, would the edge still apply in situations that *could* use Endurance even though you don't have it?

Everyone saying "make weird art!" you better fucking mean it. There better not be an unspoken "but not too weird" tacked on at the end.

“I hate it when stories have a conflict that would be resolved if the people involved just talked clearly to each other about it.”

Ooh, I do not have a drill press but may be able to track down someone who does. Thanks for the tip!

Not too bad! A little fiddly to move around because of the lack of magnets, but it has potential…

Condition rings really, really just don't have the same feel.

I'm considering just painting some 1-inch MDF round base rims in various colors and, despite lacking magnets, just stacking them beneath models.

God I wish Alea Tools was still around (their website is up but it is very sketch). Their magnetic status markers were amazing back in 4th Edition D&D days—wish I still had mine. And they'd be perfect for Draw Steel. MCDM even uses them in their in-house game.

Stop the presses, I've found the only Complication I'll ever need to take in Draw Steel.

Gnoll-Mauled

As a child, you survived a gnoll attack. But that attack left you with a jagged scar and the occasional fit of bloodlust.

Benefit: Wheenver an ally within 5 squares is reduced to 0 Stamina, you can use a triggered action to move up to your speed and make a free strike.

Drawback: While you are dazed, if you start your turn adjacent to one or more creatures, you must use your main action to make a melee free strike against an adjacent creature.

Special: You can't take this complication if you can't be made dazed.

nice argument, unfortunately I have already depicted myself as the victorious Lina Inverse from the hit game Slayers PC 98 and you as an exploding loser mountain

It is one of the worst laid-out RPG books I have ever seen in my life.

That sounds like a super fun idea! I am still reading the rules and haven’t gotten to montages but have a little familiarity with them through word-of-mouth and that sounds perfect.

Legitimately, I think Draw Steel might be my new staple RPG. I was not expecting to fall so hard for it but the more I read the more excited I get.

Remember, everyone: when you play to find out what happens, sometimes what happens is that your character dies in an ignoble manner.

if you ever wonder why nobody just "makes a good social media platform" or whatever just look at the kind of slander people continue to say about Cohost TO THIS DAY

i saw someone say "didnt cohost ban nsfw?" like that site had its fair share of flaws but people also just fucking lie about it
