@clanjos

Did you want to take wolf up on his offer to retcon the bomb throwing or do you have your heart set on sparking a feud with Jenk that will last the entirety of this campaign?

As per my last post, "let's go with the retcon"

@clanjos Sorry, which part did you want to retcon? I don't see a particular 'last post' you may be referring to. Do you mean that you want to retcon the bomb throwing action, or do you want to retcon Starfinger's research field from Chirurgeon to Bomber?

Tomorrow I'll post up a response post to Saur's attempt to pacify the Flash Beetle.

Ah, the retcon I noticed was changing an the bomb's target from the pacified Flash 4 to throwing the bomb at Flash 2, is that what you meant? That one's been acknowledged already. Or is it that you made that choice without realizing it would cause damage to Saur and Jenk since you were seemed kinda tired at the time and want to go back on that?

Because I also am not seeing a post mentioning any other kind of retcon.

Note that I don't mind Saur taking 1 HP of damage since it's basically nothing. And as a fan of interparty conflict, I--as a player--have no problems with having Saur be angry at Starfinger for it. Imo, it'll make it far more satisfying when they inevitably end up working together to take on whatever boss fight is likely at the end of this module. Same story with Fleur, I love it when party members are from different walks of life and have such conflicting ideals. Aaas long as all the players keep in mind that it is strictly IC behavior and no shade is ever actually being thrown at the other players~

And personally, I actually like this take on the situation. Interparty conflict that doesn't involve actual combat between PCs, likely due to differences in the way the characters learned to do things. And as a special bonus for me, I get to also show the other party members a side of Saur they hadn't gotten to see~ But my character is different from Rush's, so I can only speak for me xD

That said, I'm also fine with editing my post if necessary, since his response will be VERY different if the frost vial never got thrown. I just need to know if I need to edit before we move too far along.

Though I'd request that we try to refrain from making major retcons like this so late after the post was made. It kinda makes things a bit confusing even in a live game. I'd be okay with it here since: 1. it's the first time we are considering a major retcon, 2. There aren't really any actual damage numbers to have to worry about and 3. these latest posts went up so quickly that there wasn't really any time to think about whether you might want to retcon it or not when it first happened.

TL;DR - Due to the circumstances, I don't mind having to edit my post this time--since I WILL have to edit my post and change Saur's reactions if that bomb was never flung--if that's what Clan wants to do here. But I really don't want to make it a habit of changing actions a few posts down the line if possible because it'd be kind of a pain in more complex combats.

@Digizel Makes total sense. I was offering the retcon to be done in the moment, and I think that moment is growing stale.

@clanjos If you want to make a change we'll give you until 48 hours from my clarifying question: roleplayerguild.com/posts/5577537

Otherwise, I'm going to post up a response today with the result of Saur's attempt to pacify and then we'll go from there.

One more note for expediancy in future battles:

Please roll damage on your attack and post it with your Attack roll so that I don't need to wait and see what to deduct from an enemy if you do hit it. It will just make things a bit faster for responses. If you don't hit, no harm, no foul.

@clanjos Sorry, which part did you want to retcon? I don't see a particular 'last post' you may be referring to. Do you mean that you want to retcon the bomb throwing action, or do you want to retcon Starfinger's research field from Chirurgeon to Bomber?

Let's just retcon the bomb throwing action. Starfinger's probably most handy as a heal jockey or dealing with mindless foes.

Alrighty, if the change is just bomb isn't getting thrown, but the pellet was still shot, I probably won't have to change too much. Actions will still be the same on my end though, I'll just have to change up how Saur acts and what he said~

Or I'm fine with just not doing that and then just pretending like it never happened IC and not bother actually writing a different scene. However we want to handle the retcon is fine by me, but I'll await Wolf's answer before I bother xD
