Brawny adds +1 size and +1 toughness, character sheet is not updated with toughness but it is calculated in CT, try it :D

If you want to override that setting you needs to use (I cannot remember which, so you will need to test) Str!+d8 or Str?+d8

I am not sure about it, I asked one person from the spanish publisher that has a deep knoledge of Pinnacle stuff and he told me that that specific rule does not apply to natural weapons; there is no cap based on Str for natural weapons and that there are creatures that has damage higher than its Str.

I will try your expression to find out if I get it working.

Edit: Reading the rules, Minimum Strength only applies to ITEMs, "Certain items have a “Minimum Strength” required to use without penalty: Armor/Worn Gear/Melee/Thrown Weapons/Ranged Weapons", so I think it does not apply to fists/kicks/natural weapons.

I was talking specifically about the ability of Brawny to consider its Str of a die type higher when determining Min Str for weapons and equipment/encumbrance.

Thank you!

What I meant was most of the time that is how SW works so that is how FG supports it, then there is a method to override it, an example in point is the Kraken Bone sword from 50 Fathoms, regardless of the strength of the wielder if a kraken wields it it does str+d10 damage.

In that case you would type Str?+d10

Str!+d8 means that when attacking with this weapon your strength counts as one die higher and adds d8 (assuming your increased strength is d8 or higher) each additionl '!' increase the strength a die.

Str!?+d12 would mean increase str one die, then make additional damage a d12 regardless of Str

Hope that helps

Will the 5.2.6 update be pushed to release soon? I'm specifically eagerly anticipating the token view option.

If it's not due soon, then is it "safe" to take files from my FGC running in Test and drop them into my FGU's folder? I noticed that the SWADE books are in the vault folder instead of being in the modules folder, but should taking the file from my vault folder + the ruleset and dropping them in my FGU version (removing the obsolete SWADE Modules files) be sufficient to run with this?

v5.2.6 is planned to be released in live next week.

I look forward to it.

Thank you for all the work you put into maintaining the ruleset, and I'm really happy with how well it works. My group has gotten a lot more quality gaming in our sessions since switching to SW on FGU than playing in Roll20.

Can anyone check if the last update has broken the arcane skill roll in powers? I click on the die left to the power name and nothing happens, damage works as usual.

I think it has already been reported here:

I can confirm I'm having the same issue here.
