@ Xan: Being mounted negates the weight problem by quite a bit thankfully, and her Speed is nice and high. Besides, with her Nomad bonus to MOV after attacking and the crossbow's flexible range, she should be staying away from incoming attacks and counterattacks as much as possible.

And all of them, I think. We're a pretty magic-heavy group at the moment

Actually no, being mounted just makes you harder to rescue as it raises the hidden 'weight' stat. The prevalent idea that being mounted increases your CON is mostly because Haspen lists it as doing so in the character sheets, but that isn't the case as to how the rules actually play out if one were to look at the mage knight in FEF 1 or any other mounted unit with a weapon above their non-mounted CON. I assume he does so because the sheet would look weird if he added another stat.

That doesn't make any sense at all. Being mounted is supposed to increase your CON. Wasn't there a big debate over how useless the AID stat was because you could use CON in exactly the same way?

I always figured that "weight" was just a typo because it isn't used anywhere else in the book except when referring to weapons.

Now that I have a couple of days free, I started playing Hate Plus.

Game, why must you tug my heartstrings so? 

I don't have a favorite weapon, really. Halberds are cool, but so are crossbows, javelins, and one-handed swords.

I think scapheap just needs a break from the Internet in general O_o;

This sounds pretty awesome. I shall have to give it a shot later.

Seyena's hit chance would actually be 94%, I think. The enemy Mage is within Gregor's Daunt range, which means his Evade is reduced by 5, and Seyena would be within range of Riven's Charisma, boosting her Hit by 10.

Unless you already accounted for that, of course.
