Right, initiatives are up. Feel free to post out of order to speed things up. I will correct the order of things in my end of round post though bear in mind that this will sometimes result with actions being useless, for example with someone shooting a thug only to have another player who posted later but has a higher initiative taking it down beforehand. In these cases I will usually wait for the player with the wasted action to edit their original post with new actions.

Question... as I have never done a grapple check (Though I have already made the roll) in any game, how would I go about doing that? Do I make the attempt with 1d20, then do the grapple with attack bonus + Strength modifier + Super-Strength modifier + size modifier as it says in the book? Or is that the attempt check?

G'Day team-mates !
Will you please help me out ?
I have the text ready for my action, but I would like to do that really cool thing Foggy Knight did where the flavour text had a link to the action that Jon was taking. But I do not know how !!
See, I want to describe what Adrian is thinking, but show his actions too (as in this case the two are different. Hmmm, I know I am not making a heap of sense, it will be easier to grasp my ravings when you see the post).
So, I have a couple of quesitons:

1. How do you do that ?
2. Am I able to include dice rolls in that linked text box thing or do I need to make the rolls a spearate entry ? Actually, I think I know the answer to this one. I will make the dice rolls and include them at the bottom of the post as per Beany's previous instructions. Is that okay ?
I have looked thru the "Help" section but still cannot figure out how to do this.

Apologies for slowing the game down at this crucial point.

Oh, and Rosht- my understanding is the d20 + attack bonus + Strength modifier + Super-Strength modifier + size modifier roll is the attack attempt roll for the grapple

Batfan you can copy and paste Dice rolls into the text within text. And Roshti, for grapples you first make a normal melee attack roll to see if you hit and then you make opposed grapple checks using the bonuses that you listed.

Hey Batfan, a tip for you from another DM of mine: If you need to roll more than once in a [Text within a Text box], it is easier on the DM to just do a url or something to the link with the rolls. Unlike the actual post, text within a text doesn't scroll down, so if it is at the bottom of the post, or it's very long, the DM won't be able to read all of it. It's kind of like Author's notes in a story, useful for quick comments.

Moridain, your picture isn't showing. Also, "lol" to your post. She's thinking that Jon's taunting the big guy like a comic book hero, but I'm not the one rolling on the floor into a puddle and standing up to look like Aquawoman.

Thanks Beany and Foggy Knight for the advice ! It is handy to understand the tools at your disposal, it makes building a house easier (of course in this case it is more of a superhero HQ than a house !)
Foggy Knight: The line about "rolling in water like Aquawoman" was pure gold ! Nice one !

Just waiting on Beany to go?

If our heroes make it out of here unimprisoned, and alive, I am already typing a back-at-the apartment post. Don't think I want Jon to completely change just yet.

I have no idea. I just googled 'full body armor, fem' and one with a GI Joe label came up. Long brown hair if that helps

Sorry about the delay folks, life got in the way again. I will be posting in game shortly.

Seeing Foxtrot's post in my other groups OOC thread I figure I should post this.Try not to read the other game thread folks since I may have your groups meet or at the very least hear of each other and so it will be more fun if you know as much of the other heroes in the city as your characters do. Though feel free to check out the other OOC thread like Foxtrot, I've nothing against that.
