I prefer with Force gauge because that's the only way I've ever played. I'll get my discards in tonight.

EDIT: Actually, I'm fine with Special Action as well. Most people on SA seem to play Special Action.

Sent!

Let's stick with Special Action. That way, neither of us have to ante. So convenient!

In that case, can you link me the rule book for the set with Special Action?

I'd like to know how to activate each action, what each action means for me and my opponent, how to switch sides of my finisher (use Finsher with more than 7 HP?), and what actions take priority over others.

EDIT: Is there any way to get email/RSS notifications from bookmarked threads?

Nah, it's okay. I think pulse rearranges board and makes opponent discard pair, but doesn't advance counter. Cancel makes opponent discard pair and advances counter. Finisher is finisher unless you don't meet requirements -> you can choose to switch. Not sure what happens with special action priority though.

How to I use certain actions? IIRC, Strike/Dash = Finisher, Burst/Dash = Pulse, Shot/Grasp = Cancel?

Oops, that's what I meant. Sent in my pair last night.

I'll move left 1 so I'm at the center.

So if I take the last action in a beat, I should post the next Beat?

I had a quick look at BCB to check nothing was going wrong there. Whoever's playing Kehrolyn forgot to put the game ID in the subject of their email.

Oops, sorry. No wonder there weren't any updates. I just resent my pair.

I'll advance 1 and take the turret shot.

I think like SoB, EoB resolves in order of Active -> Reactive player?

Yup, dash 3 and EoB retreat 1.

Oh wow, I didn't know you could move markers around too.

For pulse, I thought only your opponent's pair discards or is that cancel? I know for sure beat remains the same.

Regardless of whether or not my pair recycles, I'd like to do Kehrolyn | O | Aria | O | O | O | Both droids

EDIT: Kehrolyn in 1, Aria in 3, both droids in 7.

Beat 7b

ARIA -- 20/20
Discard 1: Catalyst Shot
Discard 2: Dimensional Reconfiguration
Finisher: Laser Lattice
Droids deployed: Turret, Magneton

Kehrolyn Ross -- 12/20
Discard 1: Whip Shot
Discard 2: Exoskeletal Burst
Finisher: The August Strain


Where were we? All right, let's start again!

Did you discards recycle? I thought Catalyst Shot was just added to your discard 1.

I cycled mine, but not yours. Isn't that right?

I think Pulse adds your current pair to discard 1 and doesn't cycle. also, cancel = both players put current pair in discard 1?

Pulse= Pulse-r doesn't cycle, Opponent does.
Cancel= Canceler picks up their base and discards their special action. Opponent dumps pair to Discard 1 (having 2 pairs there),.

Ah, my mistake. I was under the impression that both pulse and cancel added the opponent's current attack pair to Discard 1. I'll send my pair as soon as I'm less overloaded with work.

EDIT: Sorry for the delay, I've just sent in my pair.
