Talk:Tithe

The stone elf social limitation is that they may have no permanent settlements. In addition, stone elves have a very strong sense of the "guest right", because what camps they do have have a great deal of significance to them.

GABE: Your elf, cept with sword? http://www.privateerpress.com/WARMACHINE/gallery/default.php?level=picture&id=249

--Brandon 13:12, 29 July 2008 (MST) Hmmmmm, pretty cool. I'm still kinda partial to this, minus the stupid two-sided sword (anyone who thinks those are cool doesn't understand how swords work). But, either way, these badass pictures are aspirational. At the moment, all I have is a not-too-cool shield and skivvies. No cool armor or flowing robes or anything.

GABE: More blades = less gay

GABE: So regarding those powers like darkness for silence, did you want them to silence EVERYTHING, or just voices? Otherwise it could be used as an effective sneaking power!

--Brandon 21:38, 29 July 2008 (MST) Useless blades = more lame. The best I understand it, from looking over some options with Ben last night, is that a Flash based silence spell will affect a subject, and only their voice. A Darkness based silence spell will affect a hex, and might effect more than voices. So, at least for now, I have to choose. The latter would be more useful for sneaky silencing (kinda), the former for stopping spellcasters. Either way, I won't have very many points to spends, at least at first.

--Edmiao 08:11, 30 July 2008 (MST) you can buy darkness to be a larger radius if you want. but darkness to sound would also kill all sound in the area, so if you cast it on a guard, they would notice the absence of any sound. i think you cast darkness on a hex, but as a sneaky power you want it to stay centered on you. thus you may have to buy some advantage like "sticky" to make that work effectively. of course if you lack stealth you may kick a stone that rolls out of the darkness field....

GABE: I'm just saying if he wants it only to silence voice maybe he could buy it at -1/4 or 1/2. It'd be fun to do combat with none of us able to talk!

--Edmiao 09:33, 30 July 2008 (MST) that's tricky, i think the gm would have to look at flash vs darkness. you wouldn't want a cheaper flash out of a darkness power. but i guess darkness is a kind of flash to sight group anyway. but it's one you can walk out of easily. hm. never thought about those powers like that.
