Is it possible to do a group roll (for example Recon) for everyone at once using the Party Sheet?

Yes, the party sheet could be expanded to have full team rolls. If you want this and other ideas then let me know.

yes team rolls would be a great way to handle recon rolls and such

Then list away which skills you think you'd want to roll as a team.

the only two i can think of off the top of my head are:

Recon
Stealth

Also depends on how it works, but maybe make the roll respect the GM's option of hiding their rolls or not. That way you can do rolls without them knowing what you are rolling.

Like "Roll for each of the party as a single roll" or like "roll as a task-chain as per rulebook"?

Roll for each

To many skills and characteristics in the party sheet would take up an elf-ton of space. Maybe a different option would be to add a party roll box down at the bottom with difficulties and modifiers, the player clicks party roll and then a skill on their character sheet and FG rolls for each character against the set difficulty? Seems like a cleaner solution to me, but maybe more difficult from a programming perspective.

This sounds like a fine solution...if programable. But if it can be coded, MBM is the man to do it.

Hi All,

I looked into the 5E ruleset and how they do it.

On the Party Sheet they have a Skill with a drop down, so you can select any skill. For simplicity I think I can copy that. The desktop mods would be used (so Boon/Bane etc) and it would check against the current Difficulty Number.

How's this sound?

Will the drop-down list come from the character sheet or the skill list? The reason I ask is in the event the campaign uses extra skills that are not in the core rules.

Hi Chap,

It will include all the Skills in the Skills Window I think. I'll look into it later this week, finishing up Alien Vol 1 here, then back to the 1.1.6 and the SCT.

Off to bed, in work in 8 hours.
