Hi,

Still working on getting this right at the moment. Just 1 question:

I have just had a gate open up during the Arkham Encounters phase on Doc Vincey Lee and pull him through to Celeano. He is consequently delayed. Will he still have an Other World Encounter during the following phase? I mean, he's just lying there buzzing is head off wondering why the worlds turned to jelly and rats. When he is stood up the following turn will he then be expected to have an encounter? Three encounters in Celeano seems rotten luck!

Cheers for your help,

Furtive shadow

That's just par for the course for Vincent, he sucks . Yes, he will have an OW encounter in Phase 4, delayed doesn't mean no encounter. Next turn, he'll stand up and have another encounter, eventually exiting, most likely after 3 OW encounters.

And just because Vinny is delayed, confused and what not, it doesn't mean the "people" in Celeano are just going to ignore him. What better time to get a snack than when it can't fight back (so to speak, delayed has no bearing on combat either).

Thanks for the prompt reply!!! Aghhhhhhhhhhhh, comes to mind. I knew at some deep cellular level that an Encounter should be expected but, but, but...savage game! I will now go and put Vincent through his 3 encounters...gulp!

Thank you

Unbelievable, the Encounter Vincent pulled was Pass a Speed(-2) check and return to Arkham. Nice, I thought until I realised I'd put his speed at 0 to increase his Sneak for fear of monsters appearing. He's lost in time a space now. Gate closed though, silver lining I guess.

Bish, bash, bosh!

You could have spent a clue token to try and pass the skill check. Clues give you a dice no matter what.
