Great video!

[@HeruKane]

This was awesome! Thank you.
Looking forward to seeing what you do with the other videos - Stunt stuff is awesome. Maybe I ask for a combat interacting with the Injuries. It was one of those things that confused me in regular Storypath but I am pretty sure I get it in the Ultra version but I want to make sure.
But yeah this was awesome. Thanks!

[@TheGentlemanGamer]

A pleasure! The next video will handle Tricks, and then I may do one that rolls it all together.

This is great. I always have trouble with rules until I play the game, and this was way better than someone just reading out what to do. How fragile are characters, though? I see a lot of CoD inspiration, and you said in another video that this falls in line with some osr stuff, so I'm curious if players will be expected to churn through characters/be extremely adverse to fighting.

[@TheGentlemanGamer]

Every character has around 7 Health, unless they bolster it with armour. Combat tends to be quick and brutal, especially if every enemy converges on one character, or vice versa. Strategic play is sensible, as is running away when the going is good.

[@aneverdayhobbiest2837]

@TheGentlemanGamer nice. So armor adds to health rather than making you harder to hit?

[@TheGentlemanGamer]

@@aneverdayhobbiest2837 It adds to Defence first and foremost, but depending on the kind of armour you have, it may also add Health levels.

How would I enter a Storypath ultra roll into a common dice bot ?
Exploding dice work in Discord Dice bots like Dice Maiden like this:
/roll 5d10 t8 ie10
5D10
targetnumbers 8;9;10
infinite explosions on 10
But how would I Enter plus one additional success on 10 instead of infinite rerolls?
