Editing Larp:House Rules Proposals/Fall 2024 (section)

=== The Mob Scene ===

During the course of many stories, you are inevitably going to be drawn into a challenge in which several people want to be involved. Multiparty challenges can be confusing, but if you follow these simple guidelines, you shouldn't have much difficulty. These rules are most useful in combat challenges, but they can be used with nearly any sort of group challenge, such as a player using a weapon with ''Spray''.

In most cases, the combat can be broken into groups of people attacking each other. For each group, they select a person to "lead" the challenge on their side for a simultaneous combat challenge. These leaders then perform a challenge on behalf of their group, with the group who wins the challenge being successful (and the other group emerging unharmed). A few notes for this group challenge:

* Challenges happening separately (like in a different room) should be handled first in order of initiative.
* Physical, Mental, and Social challenges should be grouped separately.
* Each group may elect to retest. By doing so, each player in the group must spend a willpower (or applicable retest) or forfeit their character's action in the group challenge. Both groups are allowed to attempt this retest. This is an exception to the rule that restricts a challenge to one willpower retest per challenge.
