I am always partial to the talent as written, seems to be the simplest. You have my permission to use it now for this combat.

Otherwise it should be Long range.

Repeating the question here for the record :)

Quick rule question - to use the assist maneuver, a character would have to be engaged with.... whom?
The character they're trying to assist? Or the enemy? Or any of the two?

Specifically asking regarding Blai's wolf. It makes sense to me they could help while engaged with the enemy... but maybe also by barking or growling or something like that while not engaged with the enemy? Trying to understand how this works.

Both need to be engaged with the same target, other wise using advantage to grant boosts is another way to do this or specific talents or abilities.

As I mentioned on Discord, I had unfortunately misunderstood this... and it makes it real hard to use the Wolf's 'Pack Instincts' ability! But I'll figure something out :) Thanks!

What does the Talent say?
Hunter’s Quarry (20xp): Take Hunter's Quarry action; make a Hard (◆◆◆) Survival (Cunning) check to upgrade the ability of all attacks made against a target at long range until the end of the character's next turn.

Hunter’s Quarry - Improved (25xp): Suffer 2 strain to perform Hunter's Quarry action as a maneuver.
Just wanted to double check if it means up to long-range or only long-range.

Just wanted to piggy back off of this: the long description (usually the more important one to quote!) specifies WITHIN, not at.

The character may take the Hunter's Quarry action against an opponent within long range, making a Hard Survival check. If the character succeeds, upgrade the ability of all attacks made against the target by one until the end of the character's next turn.

Question about the snares here! And maybe more exploring, waiting on others' answers :)

Before I take my shot, I have a few questions!

12 damage, 1 pierce
Use 2 advantage to activate knockdown on Black Tooth, 1 advantage to heal strain
-2 strain for additional maneuver.
1) Is the fire still active or can be crossed?
2) If so and the hound is knockdown, does that mean it is no longer engaged?
3) Does it get a cover bonus for being knocked down or is too large?

Thank you!

Fire is active for the scene unless extinguished, knockdown it is still engaged, and it is very large and could provide cover.

Just wondering if Black Tooth would benefit from cover from being knocked down akin to going prone? Or is it too large?

Also, more importantly, could Breela attacked Black Tooth so easily?

What's the distance between Black Tooth and the dead Pack Mate that Kat was fighting?

Debating what to do with my win at the moment...would it be possible to give the point to Riss, even she's not a suitor-suitor?

Hey DD. We've currently got water samples to take to a lab for analysis, Baesal mentioned taking them for alchemical analysis, and I'd like to take the hounds back for analysis (and possibly rehabilitation/ taming). Wondering where would be a good place for that... The University, maybe? Should I set up a thread, possibly on D5 given it's late on D4 already? Do you have other suggestions?

Thanks!

Yeah you can do that, the Organa Sunflower University, use the Organa palace forum.

Video leaks to Holonet in the EN on Day 4

Footage of Layne Hoshin storming the Organa palace and bullying her way to Niall Organa surfaces, they have a tense argument and then start making love on his desk. Many gossip blogs host the edited version but the unedited footage is easy to find.

Just to check, does this seem to contain actual footage of Niall's office? Or is that part faked too?
