Tiny attempts to revive the Warriors Adventure Game

Fennelnose turned up his nose at the fish (at partly at the RiverClan warriors). "Well, I can't imagine how you can stomach something that reeks like crowfoot," he growled. Such animosity.

Either way, Flarefur sees a mouse, Pounce target of 3.

Icefeather easily kills the mouse with a swift bite. One more mouse for the fresh-kill pile!

"Yeah! I guess mice survive by being too furry to eat," Stonebelly joked with a purr.

Something was nearby... a See check of 3 would cause it to be noticed, but a 4 would reveal it completely.

Stonebelly was certainly the least observant cat of the bunch. Not even noticing Icefeather's distress, she looked down into the water to see if any fish were nearby.

Sadly, Leafheart is as oblivious as Stonebelly. Hopefully someone makes the check target soon...

With a see check of 3, Fennelnose recognised Icefeather's tense expression. He raised his hackles and glanced around the area. What was troubling this warrior...?

Int 3 + ponder 1 = 4
Successful ponder check! What are they up against, Tiny? }}

The pounce is made! To move the event along, it is killed easily.

In the grass, Fennelnose picks up a few signs- a flash of red fur, sharp brown eyes, swift paws... it's definitely a fox! It's rather young- apprentice age, if one had to guess- and seems to be eyeing the fresh-kill greedily.

Fennelnose's hiss isn't too threatening, but because you made the GM laugh, the fox seems wary. It shifts its weight from paw to paw. Stonebelly takes this opportunity to strike.

(TUTORIAL: ATTACKING

In a fight, you can take 3 actions:

Bite- only used in life or death situations. Based on strength, it deals one extra chip of damage if it succeeds.

Swat- A basic swipe. Based on intelligence, it is the most basic attack.

Pounce/Wrestle- Based on intelligence and strength, respectively. Once you land a pounce, wrestling begins. Each round, the wrestlers make a Wrestle Check, and the higher total lets that cat do damage.

To hit, get equal to or higher than the opponent's Jump check.)

Stonebelly snaps at the fox. ( str 3). (Fox Jump: 4) The fox yelps in surprise and jumps back.

(TUTORIAL: SPENDING CHIPS 2

Note that spending chips does not decrease base score; you just can't spend as many. Think of chips as your energy, and your base stats as your... well... stats.

Also, be careful: chips also function as HEALTH. If chips are LOST in combat, not only are your options more limited, but if you spent too many chips before, your cat could be KOed)

Icefeather, having made the Ponder Check too, (Int: 3 Ponder: 1) also realized it was a fox and was ready for the fight. She swatted the fox, hoping to distract it from Fennelnose. (Swat Check: 4 Int: 3 Swat: 1)

(Leafy's fine, she can still attack. Swat's based on intelligence btw)

A Jump of 4 still didn't save the fox. It yelped in pain as claws raked its face.

(TUTORIAL: DAMAGE

In combat, the amount of damage you do is based on strength. Both parties make a strength check, but only the attacker can send chips. Damage calculation is as follows:

Attacker strength is less or equal to defender- 1 chip

Attacker strength is greater- 2 chips

Attacker strength is double defender- 3 chips

Bite or certain Knacks increase chip damage. Also, chips lost through damage are LOST. Unlike spending chips, lost chips aren't refreshed. Also, since chips double as both check enhancers and health, spend wisely!

Fox strength: 4)

Okay! And sorry, in my notes I had Swat under the spirit category. I fixed it now though so it won't happen again. Here is Leafheart's Swat: Int-2 + Swat-1 = 3

Also about the certain knacks, Leafheart has Mighty Swat as one of her knacks. Will that do anything extra when she attacks? And I'm really sorry for asking so many questions, but how many chips does my cat have left?

The fox's scratch isn't too serious- only 1 chip of damage- but the strike makes it wary. Fennelnose slashes the fox's red-furred side. (Fox strength: 4)

Unfortunately, Leafheart misses due to the fox's Jump check of 4. Even under attack, the canine is still rather swift.

(Leafheart has spent no chips, so she is at full chip value. As for the Mighty Swat...

TUTORIAL: KNACKS

Knacks are different from Skills. While skills are passive effects, Knacks are abilities- you must activate them to use them, by paying the cost.

For example, if Leafheart wants to use Mighty Swat, she will spend 2 strength chips to activate it- BEFORE she takes the action of making the check. Therefore, if she hits after activating Mighty Swat, she will do one extra chip of damage. However, this knack is only useful if the swat actually hits. Otherwise, chips are wasted.

Also note that chip costs decrease as you upgrade Knacks, although many Knacks can only be upgraded once or twice.)
