RE: (TFT) General Test of ITL Knowledge

[PvK <pvk@oz.net>]

Ah, so it _was_ a test of ITL knowledge - of the special slinker attack. 

However I would also quibble:

* A sleeping wizard doesn't engage anyone. The rule for slinker snatching in ITL is about standing awake targets who are resisting. A sleeping target can't resist. The only reason rolls would be needed would be to get the item off the body (it might not be automatic to get a necklace off), and possibly to run over the body and not trip. I think it is much more like a picking things up situation (3 MA) than an attack (requiring an action).

* I think you did the slinker's movement incorrectly. You spent 3 MA for the hex where you pick up the ST battery, but it costs 3 MA (or a DX roll) to scoop up an object on the run, which I don't think includes the costs to move into and out of the hex, so movement points 2-5 would be spent in the hex (though the slinker could just make another DX roll to save 3 MA.
