Rules Questions

If ordering Concon 2, can the spending be split between 2 shops, or does it all have to go to the same trader?

In the "Civilian Appointments Table", there is a column for CHA. Is this the minimum a PC has to have before applyingfor the role? For example, could Johannes (CHA 5) could apply as Aide to the City Lawspeaker (CHA 4)?

And I dont understand the "1D6" column. He would have to roll a 7 on a D6?

Thanks in advance for the clarification!

1. Yes, like applying for a position in a regiment, you are limited to roles that you match or exceed the Cha requirement for.

2. Some positions are impossible to obtain unless you have positive die roll modifiers e.g. by spending any influence you have accumulated and persuading others to use influence on your behalf.

If a player is going to use influence to affect an action in the regular weekly turns, it must first be mentioned in the Pre-Turn section of orders, correct? Does the player also need to post an open announcement by the announcement deadline, as to where and how the influence is being applied?

Thank you!

You need to announce influencable actions whether or not you're going to use influence. The reason is that others might want to use influence.

You never have to announce your actual use of influence.

You can't announce an influencable action and then not do it. Announcing an action is a form of pre-order.

You can only be a patron of one shop.

To help me in answering questions, and help others find answers to their questions, I'm locking this general rules question thread.

Please post questions as a new topic with a sescriptive topic subject.

Volunteering
If one intends to volunteer their own command, presumably this needs to be announced like anything else?

Change: no, volunteering ones command does not have to be announced, although doing so is probably appreciated by those affected.

Convincing an NPC to volunteer has to be announced, as it can be influenced.
