jdounis Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 Hello everyone, can you please tell me how you handle the targeting off non perceivable with a targeting sense opponents in combat? For example lets suppose our Hero Mr. Longshot who has only Sight as a targeting sense is blinded by a Sight Flash from Dr. Atomic and Dr. Atomic changes position and he is at a range from Mr.Longshot, now Mr. Longshot is at 0 OCV but can he even target Dr.Atomic without making a PER roll with another sense? what about in HTH? must the player guess the position and make the attack at the reduced OCV? thank you in advance!

Brian Stanfield Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 HS6e2, page 7, gives the basics for this. In HtH Mr. Longshot would have 1/2 OCV and 1/2 DCV. In ranged combat he'd be 0 OCV and 1/2 DCV. There is more on PER rolls with non-targeting senses, to which range modifiers apply. The PER roll is a half phase action, and if successful HtH is at 1/2 OCV and -1 DCV, while ranged is at 1/2 OCV and full DCV. This lasts for one phase only, at which point a new PER roll is made in Mr. longshot's next phase if he wants to continue vaguely targeting the invisible opponent. Likewise, he suffers the original penalties against all other opponents while he focuses on the single opponent with his non-targeting sense.

mrinku Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 p134 in Champions Complete. Generally the non targeting sense will be Hearing (Smell is at -5), but several Enhanced Senses fall into the Sense category. Mental doesn't by default, although Mind Scan has its own rules to allow target lock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
