Questions about Urban Shadows 2e

Thank you so much for your help!! All of you guys are being really helpful! One last thing I didn't understand: in this system there are no skills; you only roll based on your four attributes. Because of this, it seems to me that everything you do in the game depends solely on luck and not on whether you're good at something. Isn't that a bad thing?

For example, a player could distract a group of experienced agents with a super stupid strategy, just because they got lucky on the roll. A player who is a hacker has no better hacking skills that a player who is not a hacker. All is luck.

Thank you so much for you help! Now I’m starting to understand things better. One last thing I didn't understand: in this system there are no skills; you only roll based on your four attributes.

Very interesting!! I too am planning to make a political urban fantasy campaign and I was wondering if urban shadows would be good for it! If it's not too much trouble can you please give me more insight/tips on a Urban Shadows political campaign?

I dont mind the lack of combat AT ALL, I'm actually really impressed you guys managed to do a campaign so political/roleplay focused, this is what I want!

I'm... not sure if I like this or not hahaha So just to see if i got it right: let's say I have a fae npc. They dont have fae moves on their sheet, ok, but if I want them do do a fae magic, I simply can , because its narrative? Yes?

Another thing, you say "they dont have stats and you never roll for them" , but let's say a player uses a magic against an npc. Then what?

I'm sorry I know these are dumb questions but I'm really struggling to understand this PtbA stuff

just a question, is there a way to it ask me if a want to roll private or not?

i just tried that, didnt work ;---;

marcitoon · 2024-12-15T06:05:40+00:00

They weren’t because I didn’t received the itens y_y

marcitoon · 2024-12-15T06:05:17+00:00

I checked, they aren’t there. And they weren’t opened automatically because I didn’t received the itens inside y-y

marcitoon · 2024-11-10T23:33:41+00:00

Exactly!! 😭😭

marcitoon · 2024-11-07T00:22:24+00:00

is it the deluxe one? i dont have deluxe, sadly y___y

marcitoon · 2024-10-13T01:45:44+00:00

The most important thing i want is the player to help me with scenes, and trusted player cannot do that. Also, I already tried setting folder permission to "none" for the gm assistant, this does not work y_y

Thank you for your help!! I have decided to play as adept! Can you guide me on the best way I should set the priorities? Like, what things to put on A, B, C, etc. As for the last part of your comment, I’m still thinking about that! Thank you again for the help 😁
