29/04/2020 -Arch-Chirugeon changed to "Primus Medicae"

Literally because it's the better IC term for the rank of Chirugeon.

---

29/04/2020 - Explicator clarified

Explicator's wording has been updated to clarify how it uses chems.

---

29/04/2020 - Medicae and Chirugeon clarified

In line with earlier updates to Alchemisty both Medicae and Chirugeon have been updated to specify that they give you five chems resources with which you may create any of the effects of Medical Alchemistry.

---

29/04/2020 - Chem Trooper altered

In line with the shift in how Chems have changed the Chem trooper rules to represent the specific restrictions of that trait;

• You may expend a Chem to gain the effect of Combat Drugs.

• You may expend a Chem to use the effect of Get it Together on yourself but only if you are not Wounded.

29/04/2020 - I am a Knife in the Dark altered

In addition to other rules shifting in anticipation of changes to Adept Mortis; I AM A KNIFE IN THE DARK has been altered.

I AM A KNIFE IN THE DARK [Optional addition: NONLETHAL] Fall to the ground as silently as possible and become Grievously Wounded (this usually instantly kills most NPCs). If ‘NONLETHAL’ is tagged on, collapse unconscious to the ground until someone spends 5s bringing you around or the scene ends.

29/04/2020 - Poison Removed from Alchemistry, Toxic removed from calls

In anticipation of updates to Adept Mortis (coming soon) Poison has been removed from the general Alchemistry list available to medicae and chirugeons.

---

29/04/2020 - Get it Together Alchemistry Clarification

Following the update to Get it Together in S2 we failed to update the chems, to reflect Stimms and Biosealants do the same thing. To this end Stimms have been removed from the rules entirely - given that Alchemisty effects are based on 'spend a chem to get an effect' - the Alchemistry effect Biosealants now read;

Biosealants Biosealants are not actually chems, but a collection of adhesives known colloquially by names such as ‘bone weld’ and ‘wound sealant’; they are used to rapidly close wounds and get people back into a fight.

Suggested Physrep: Canister/Injector, Yellow

Effect: By applying this to the wounds of a character you may use the call Get it Together on them.

Repeat Use: This Chem cannot be used more than once on the same character in a scene, at a point you simply cannot patch up any more holes in them.

28/04/2020 - Aegis Training Clarification

Two changes:

This first covers the fact that people can use people with shields as cover;

• One individual able to hide wholy behind you and your shield may use you as Cover but they must move away from you to new cover to reset their cover benefits, rather than their cover resetting when you move five long steps.

The Second are clarifications regarding Shields vs Sunder largely to improve the language used;

• The call Sunder will destroy a non-relic shield, but protect the bearer from the call that destroyed it if they take the blow on the shield, or they would have received cover from a ranged Sunder and were aware of the individual making the call.

• You may use smaller shields to defend yourself in melee as well, but these confer none of the above benefits and are not only destroyed by Sunder but you will take the call as if it hit you.

---

28/04/2020 - Adamantium Will Clarification

We have added a line to clarify that Adamantium Will does not allow you to bounce Warp Sunder as per the Sunder rules that specify that it can only be defended against by a trait that specifically says it can be defended against..

---

28/04/2020 - There's no Need for All this Bleeding and Get it Together Clarification

We have added a line to clarify that you cannot use Get it Together calls on yourself if they come from this subtrait of Get it Together Trooper - Get it Together can be used on yourself via Chems or via Biomancy.

There was some question about whether you could use it on yourself while Wounded or Greviously Wounded but as both these states state you cannot use traits while you are in them unless they say otherwise, the answer should be clear.

---

24/04/2020 - Haywire Clarification

Clarity has been added to Haywire to confirm that:

All weapons that make calls are considered to be technological items, but strike safe weapons may continue to be used to perform uncalled melee attacks while disabled, unless those calls are sourced through supernatural means.

---

05/04/2020 - Telepathy Changes

---
