Research for Academics and Non-Academics

PostDateIcon Wed, 09/23/2015 - 6:57pm | PostAuthorIcon GilboD

One simple question, does the 'ask a question, get a yes/no answer' part of Research for the Academic Skill require a roll to accomplish?

Or can characters just sit in libraries or on the web asking yes/no answers in most of their spare time?

‹ Spending a bone for a reroll Is anyone actually playing this game? ›

Yep, unless an aspect specifies otherwise, all uses of a skill require a skill check. There are some obvious exceptions... for instance, you don't have to make a martial artist skill check to have martial maneuvers, but using most maneuvers requires one.
