So all combat like the Coventry thread is just going to get insta-rolled? I find it very [banned word], because i have asked for almost a month GM intervention in answering a simple question; i sent 3 PMs and replied in the thread and all i got was silence.
Now a very important battle, i would say the one that has the more significance will be rolled out without the faction players input and I find it [banned word].
I know it was the Holiday season and we all have better things to do, but really, no time could be found to answer a simple question? Just two or three words could have gotten that thread back on track and it would have been completed by now.
I'm sorry I didn't get back to you all on this but as I noted elsewhere I was not really doing anything with FGC for the last 3 weeks or so.
If you guys want to take care of this yourselves that's fine; if you opt to do this, please do so ASAP.
i don't see what the holdup is, in FGC, initiative is only ever rolled for arrival order. Whoever arrives first, gets their orders issued first, we never roll a 2nd set of initiative.
The reason Holt rolled for initiative, assuming I am recalling things correctly, is that I specifically told him to do so, since regardless of the arrival order, he would still need to roll for initiative for op round 1 to see what order his troops already in the hex would act in. I understand that folks often mutually bypass rolling init for each op round, and that's fine with me, but when people do opt to roll for this, they are within their rights to do so.
