W - LOCATIONS ET INFLUENCES

Influences

(Vous devez avoir une feuille d'influence entre vos mains, si vous n'avez pas une veuillez me contacté, je vous en remettrai en main propre durant la soirée)

N.B: Chaque Fin du mois, celui qui aura 10 influence pourra demander un service qui sera transmis au Prince.

L'influence se partage en deux. Le Niveau et Le domaine d'influence.

Votre niveau d'influence représente votre ascendance sur le monde des mortels. Votre niveau d'influence détermine aussi le nombre d'action que vous pouvez faire entre les soirées de jeu. Votre niveau indique aussi quel effet votre action peut et aura sur la ville parmi les mortels. Votre niveau peut s'abaisser ou augmenter selon vos actions. Voici le coût pour certaine action particulière:

- Activer un agent ( 1 et + Actions dépend du Niveau du Domaine.)
- Augmenter votre défense dans un domaine particulier ( 1 et + dépend du nombre d'action que vous être prêt à dépenser)
- Augmenter votre attaque dans un domaine particulier ( 1 et + dépend du nombre d'action que vous être prêt à dépenser)


Pour débuter en influence, et avoir un niveau de 1. Vous devez dépenser 10 XP et vous revevez 10 point que vous pouvez dépenser dans vos domaines.

Without the means to perform this monumental task, our "small" world quickly returns to a daunting orb with large, isolated stretches. The forces that keep this circulation in motion include: cab and bus drivers, pilots, air traffic controllers, travel firms, sea captains, conductors, border guards and untold others.

J'aimerais un éclaircissement; que veut-on dire par activer un agent?

Bonne Question, une exemple parfaite est celle-ci:

Citation :

Tu veut avoir 1 policier assez élever dans la hiérarchie de la police qui vienne à ce moment précis pour régler ton problème de ticket. Je pourrais te dire alors que tu devra dépenser 3 point d'action d'influence et le policier viendra régler ce problème mais cet *AGENT* pourrait tous aussi bien faire d'autre petite chose pour toi tant qu'a être la.

Tu voit le principe est que tu utilise ton influence dans le but d'avoir une action précise au moment présent généralement durant la game. C'est ce que ça veut dire activé un agent. j'espère que ceci aura répondu à ta question.

Et les "+/-" veulent dirent quoi?

Aussi bonne Question! Ce sont les bonus négatif ou positif a ajouter a la défense ou l'attaque durant une prise de l'influence.

Vous pouvez voir votre domaine comme une armure et une arme qui donne des avantages pour vous protégez ou attaquer une influence d'une personne.

Autres questions;

Y a-t-il une protection « anti-farming » pour éviter que quelqu'un tappe toujours dans l'Influence de la même personne pour se progresser plus en avant?

Cacher ses attaques d'Influences demande quel niveau de complexité, quels malus?

Que se passe-t-il si qqn qui n'a pas payé les 10 Xp pour posséder le système d'Influence prends une location lui donnant un bonus d'Influence?

Non, il n'y a pas de protection anti-farming. Par exemple, vous pouvez être sur que le système est conçus pour éviter une attaque répétitive, une exemple par exemple pourrait etre la divulgation de votre titre ou de votre nom de personnage. La réalité est que plus vous frappez sur un adversaire, plus celui-ci a de la chance de percevoir qui est son ennemie.

Vous ne pouvez pas cachez votre attaques d'influence, tout ce règle dans un jet d'influence en attaque, plus vous avez de succès, plus vous avez de chance de ne pas être remarque par votre adversaire. Ce qui veut dire, que vous devez utiliser le maximum de vos capacités pour augmenter vos chances de succès. En plus, plus votre niveau d'influence est haut, plus vous disposez d'action que vous pouvez utilisez pour attaquer une autre influence.

Il ne dispose pas d'influence alors il ne reçoit pas le bonus par exemple, il peut aisément dans une coterie, offrir cet location, le bonus est alors partager par les membres. N'oublier pas que si il perd la location, le bonus disparaît, et son adhésion a la coterie aussi.

Update:

Citation :

Addenda: Vous gagnez les bénéfices d'une location, mais vous ne savez pas exactement ce qui se passe sur place sauf si vous en faite la demande par un move.
