Hello,
I've recently purchased FF2 to run a Call of Cthulhu game and I have a question about the combat tracker. I've set up a local game while running both a full license and a lite license. I'm trying to get an idea of how the app runs and after viewing the online tutorials it sounds like the combat tracker should be linking the attacking character to the targeted character by showing their token to the right of the target characters info in the combat tracker...this is not happening. Is this a known issue with the CoC ruleset or am I doing something wrong? I've even tried setting initiative to the active character but nothing seems to work...Thanks for any input.

Hi

CoC support is provided by Digital Adventures ([email protected]) but hopefully I can help.

Each ruleset implements combat trackers differently (to one extent or another) and the CoC ruleset does not link attackers/defenders like the FG2 Demo, so you aren't doing anything wrong and nor are you missing anything either.

The FG2 linking is most helpful when an attacker casts a spell or effect on the defender - this is less likely to happen in CoC and it was decided that keeping the free space in the tracker wasn't worth it.

Hope that helps
