Bombardier throwing table

Hi All,

I'm playing with gobbos on tabletop and in both the Cyanide game and on Fumbbl.

I have recently spotted that neither the computer games considers the Stunty -1 on throwing the bomb with the bombardier. Based on the Fumbbl client and the Cyanid game a quick pass with the bomb is successful on a 3+ if I recall it correctly. That is strange becuase there should be a -1 because of stunty, combined with Ag 3 that should be a 4+, shouldn't it?

Are you guys aware of a special rule for that? Could you please point me to it, or give some references for me? I've double checked the Secret Weapon, Bombardier, Stunty rules but haven't found anything about it.

Thanks for any suggestions in advance!

The star has accurate, if you are using him? Should be 4+ otherwise. I think I forgot this at the weekend, which cost me!

Thanks for pointing that out!

No, not the starplayer Bomber Driddleshot, I'm speaking about a simple bombardier, but that's important to keep in mind. I'm quite sure about this in the Cyanid version of the game works this way, I'll check the Fumbbl game again.

As far as I remember, Cyanide writes the result you need, which is 3+, but then subtracts 1 from your dice roll.

Yep, that baffled me when I failed a Wild Animal blitz on there once... It says something like "you rolled a 1 but require a 4+". It applies modifiers (such as the wild animal +2 when making a block or blitz) to the roll, not the target score.

I agree. Both Cyanide and Fumbbl do it correctly, but announce it in a slightly confusing way. Quick pass with bombardier means fumble on a 1 and 2 and inaccurate pass on a 3.

Great, thanks for the verification, guys!

Actually, I think I was confused by the star player after playing a game with gobbos in both of the computer games.

Thanks you all again!
