What is the official process for asking rules clarifications

Unread post by Maximilian Jenius »

Hello all,

Is there an official process in place for asking for rules clarifications? With the rules out in the wild there several questions have arisen that need clarification. I figure that enough folks close to the source hang out here that someone may know the best place to ask.

Honestly your best bet is to ask on the Facebook page or contact me and I will ask the source. There are a few who have been playing for a while on the Facebook page using standins for the figures who will likely know.

You forgot smoke signals or the old flag signaling system the navy used way back in the day. I guess on the serious side calling pb might get you an answer. Getting in touch with mike or any if the play testers might get you an answer much quicker. Rumor has it mike is also working on an unofficial FAQ as well.

The key word there is unofficial.

Unofficial because
1. I'm the only one doing it
2. PB has not had the time to look it all over yet and talk about it.
3. #2 may be remedied later today. :)

Good work Mike! I think its important to remember this is a new rule set. Frankly there are going to be bugs in the system as well as the need for clarification. Most people have no idea how hard it is to describe how to do something until they sit down and try to write it up. I'll never forget my first attempt to write a rule set. No one but me ever saw it but it was still extremely hard describing some of the concepts clearly.

So patience is going to be key. Well get there, there are too many people who care about this game for loose ends to never get tired up.

I have no idea if pb has a FAQ section or plan to put one up for rrt. For some reason I'm willing to listen to mike for answering questions since I have seen he went above and beyond for this project.

Plus, he has familiarity with the rules. So I'm treating his input as unofficially official :P

Well asking here certaintly is not working. We may have to do what elder scrolls gamers do and come up with an "unofficial" patch until PB comes forward with a proper process.

I agree. Your question on engagement/base-to-base and hand-to-hand combat involving aircraft seems like a good place to start. Unfortunately it doesn't look like you can upload documents to this forum.
