Ok this happened last night: Northstar was on his last click of HSS, he attacked a badguy few squares away from him. NS rolled a critical failure to hit, when does he take that click of damage? aka is he based with the badguy or does he get to finish his HSS move then take the click of damage.

Basically is he based with the badguy or no? see below

Thanks

right away. He would stop next to the piece he attacked.

Let me second Bud on that, he is correct....NS takes the click and is stopped in the square he is attacking from.....

Thanks guys

What about when NGN Supes attacks a mystic? When does he take hte mystic click and lose HSS?

Just like the Crit Miss damage, Supes would take the damage immediately and then see if he still has HSS to keep moving. (which, of course, he wouldn't)

Same with someone making a Flurry attack. If you lose flurry after the first attack, you don't get to make the second one.

LOL, I just want to point out that "Critical Failure" sounds a lot cooler than "Critical Miss". If I see Critical Miss be changed to Critical Failure I know I'd have heard it first from bigevil. =)

Critical Failure always seems to imply warp core failures and such to me...

Star Trek geek...

But then again, I think the same thing too

I was thinking, "You know, 'critical failure' sounds like Canadian for 'critical miss.' I wonder..." And sure enough, bigevil is in Winnipeg! Bless you, Canada, for making English just a bit more quaintly formal and enjoyable.

This has nothing to do with this thread, but I'm glad to see that some people still remember Snake Plissken
