This is kind of a combination rules/client question, I suppose: Does pro work on my opponent's turn? In TT, I would think it would be useable for interceptions, shadowing, and tents (and pass block dodges, if pass block was in the client)... but this wouldn't be the first time Fumbbl interpreted rules differently than I did at first glance.

So,

Does pro work in the client on rolls made outside of my turn?

and/or,

Can pro even be used this way in the first place?

Thanks!

Huh... The rules don't seem to have anything against using a pro reroll on your opponents turn. Never thought of that before. Interesting to see if it's in the client, but I highly doubt it Very Happy.

Pro should work on a pass block turn i.e. on a failed dodge or go for it. Interceptions, catch allows you to reroll that, so, I'd assume it should work?

I would have thought no for shadowing, tentacles, as they're not active dice rolls. (And, yes, I just made up that term.)

Great question!

From the FAQ in the back of the CRP:

"Q: Can I use pro during my opponents turn? Can I reroll pro?
A: Yes you can. Yes, but only in your turn."

So that's pretty clear.

Just tried this on test mode. Pro can reroll interceptions. Cool :>. Doesnt work for shadowing or tents.

So you can reroll shadowing/tents with pro?

Shadowing/Tents is rolled (and re-rolled) by the active coach for the player trying to escape. IIRC.

Yep that's right. The dialogue for shadowing is confusing though, because it says "XXX successfully shadowed his opponent" instead of "XXX failed to escape his shadower" or something to that effect, so you'd see why it might be like the shadower is rolling.

I had an opponent successfully reroll a INT attempt last night with Pro, so it's working in the client for sure.

Pro should work for catch attempts during oppo turn too (eg from scatters)

While you can use Pro on a Tentacle roll against you after you've succeeded to shadow Smile

Tentacles can prevent someone from shadowing? Interesting... I'm amazed how many freaky situations turn up again and again. Very Happy
