(Answered) PSR - Intentionally Failing
« on: 20 May 2018, 19:22:26 »
Is it possible to intentionally fail a PSR?
To use an example from a recent game, a Hunchback is on a level 1 hill, and a Kintaro is on a level 2 hill. Hunchback had pre-existing head damage, and a kick would result in his death. The Hunchback took enough damage to force a PSR, as well as a foot actuator hit. Could the player choose to not make either of those two skill checks in order to fall prone, and thus avoid the potential boot to the head?

Per the BMM and the TW errata, no, you cannot intentionally fail a PSR (or Driving Roll).
