Players Controlling Tokens

[geewaagh]

Okay, I'm confused. I am currently playing a Savage Worlds game and trying to let the Players control "friendly" NPC tokens. I have linked my tokens by dragging the NPCS to the combat tracker, then their icons to the map. Players cannot move tokens that are green.

Help! I have started the rounds but this did not make them available either. If the tokens are not linked then the players can move them fine.

I must be missing something......

Actually you're not :(

There is a "flaw" in how tokens on Allies work with regards to the PCs. As such player's cannot control "linked" NPC tokens as well as we'd like (We're working on a solution to this!)

That said, the best work around we have right now is to just use un-assigned tokens for the time being, and label them by dragging text onto the token.

Vincent,

Thanks for the reply. I will follow your advice on the work around. Too bad the fancy FGII tracker cannot be linked. :cry:

Thanks for SW to FGII though, it is my new RPG rules of choice. Playing deadlands with it currently and about to start a Shaintar campaign.

Thanks again...

Yeah that will help our game out alot...I am really looking forward to playing some Shaintar. Can't wait for the fix on those tokens.

Has his been fixed? If so how do you allow the players to move a linked NPC token?
