So I was thinking we should list with the useful stuff some of the equations like calculating your DV's or attack dice. Since they are located in all manner of different places in the book. Also maybe a page listing of certain things so we can quick reference.

Heya, Reemo! ^__^
That does sound like a good idea. I can help with that!

Finally finished my CAD! YEAH! Now to find some good picture of not particularly pretty asian strong guy, but that can wait.
And yeah, I wrote all my secondary stats for reference too. When I played for the first time, I actually made all my players write them somewhere for quick use.

Here's what I have so far: Statistic | Formula | Join Battle Move Dash Jump, Vert Jump, Horiz Lift | Wits + Awareness + Epic Wits Dexterity + bonus yards from Epic Dexterity Dexterity + 6 yards + (bonus yards from Epic Dexterity x2) Strength + Athletics + bonus yards from Epic Strength vertical jump x 2 compare (Strength + Athletics) to chart, + bonus pounds from Epic Strength | Dodge DV Parry DV Accuracy
| [(Dexterity + Athletics + Legend) / 2] + bonus from Epic Dexterity [(Dexterity + Brawl/Melee + Weapon Defense) / 2] + bonus from Epic Dexterity Dexterity + Brawl/Melee/Marksmanship/Melee + Weapon Accuracy + automatic successes for Epic Dexterity | Damage
Soak, Bashing Soak, Lethal Soak, Agg
| Weapon Damage (+ Strength + automatic successes for Epic Strength for brawl/melee/thrown attacks) + Threshold Successes + 1 Stamina + Armor + extra soak from Epic Stamina (Stamina / 2) + Armor + extra soak from Epic Stamina soak from Epic Stamina |
DK will have to go over that to make sure it's right.. I'm still unclear about how Epic Attributes affect Accuracy and Damage.. Damage in particular. If Epic Strength really does add to damage rolls, I figure at high levels soak would become totally meaningless, and that doesn't seem to make sense to me. White Wolf books are notorious for not being specific, and for scattering their rules all over the place. ~TWF

On accuracy do you also include the Accuracy of the weapon? So it would be Dex + Brawl/melee/marksmanship + weapon + Epic Dex ?

Oh, yes, good call, Reemo. ^__^ I'll change that.
The other thing I really want to point out to everyone is that damage includes a basic +1 dice. I often forget about that.

Looks like you got it all covered, unless I'm missing something...

Bear with me please.
With Accuracy nailed down, to actually hit a person you need to roll more successes (7 or above [always?]) than the targets Dodge Value?

Yep. Seems difficult, even with epic dexterity. There are a lot of us, though, which means we can take advantage of the Coordinated Assault rule:
EDIT: Actually, I think you just need to roll at least as many successes as their DV, not more than. Any additional successes carry over as extra damage dice, though. I should include that.

Yay, all the sheets are up! Awesome stuff.
Poor Danny. There's an App 4 scion of Aphrodite with Presence Arete and Epic Appearance, and it turns out they're cousins.

I am actually still debating dropping in cameos from some of the sample characters.
But yeah, that's probably a question Donnie would throw out: "Hey, baby, what's your Pantheon?" "Dodekatheon..." "With Epic Appearance that high you must be a Scion of... eww... Forget it. Where's that Voodoo chick again?"
