Are modifiers cumulative?
« on: December 21, 2010, 04:14:13 PM »
Pretty straightforward. If I take 1 ongoing and, say, some other situation makes me take 1 ongoing, do I take 2 ongoing?
If I take 1 ongoing and then something gives me 1 forward, do i take 2 in my next roll and 1 ongoing until the first condition fades off?
Or do such conditions overwrite each other?
Same question for negative modifiers.

I'm sorry but I can find no mention in the manual, maybe I'm searching the wrong chapter...

Does this also work for, say, acting on the MC's answers?

If you're "acting on" three of the MC's answers, do you add +3 to your roll?

Nope. The wording of the move rules that out.
