MV0104 burstfire + M99A2S3 Special Application Scoped Rifle question.

so me and my dm are trying to figgure out what the burst (X) would be if i where to put the Mv0104 on my sniper because in the benifits tab it says "Burst (X) cannot be larger than 5, or lower than 2. For example, Auto (7) creates Burst (3)." as the last sentence. this seems cut and dry to me that even thought the module says it only gives you a burst equal to your semi-auto fire rate, at the end of the description it says explicitly that burst must be at least 2.

so with the rifle having a semi-auto of 1 the MV0104 should make the burst of the rifle Burst 2 correct?

Edit: the whole discrition is this.

"The MV0004 Burst Fire is a modification that adds Burst Select Fire to a weapon that has Semi-Auto and/or Automatic, but not Burst. This new Select Fire option does not replace any current Firing Types a weapon has. If a weapon has Semi-Auto and Automatic, the Burst will be figured based on the Semi-Auto Rate of Fire, and not the Automatic Rate of Fire. For weapons with Semi-Auto, Burst (X) will be the same as Semi-Auto (X). For Automatics that do not have a Semi-Auto Firing Type, Burst (X) is Auto (X) halved and reduced by 1. Burst (X) cannot be larger than 5, or lower than 2. For example, Auto (7) creates Burst (3)."

Question going into a game for the first time

I’m a veteran DM in D&D, and while that’s the system I’m most familiar with, I am also familiar with systems like Call of Cthulhu, WH40K rogue trader, and Pathfinder. My question is how difficult would it be for a group most familiar with D&D, both the DM and players, to pick up the mechanics and system of Halo Mythic? And could it realistically be done within one day, or maybe one or two weeks? I would like to run Halo Mythic for a small group of friends, and I would like to know how much both I and my friends need to learn before we can start playing through a more long-running campaign

Tl;dr - how long/difficult would it be for a DM familiar with tabletops like D&D to learn and then teach players the Halo Mythic system to play a campaign?

Question from new players

I've started a Covenant campaign with my friends recently and we've been wondering how is a character supposed to become an arbiter since there is no rank or armor for it. Is it supposed to be a narrative tool instead of a full player's character or am I missing something?

Am I Dumb? How Do Ammo Work?

So I see there is ammo and buying/finding magazines as a mechanic. But how is ammunition spent during combat? Cause I see how combat with firearms works as rolls but I don't see anywhere in the rules that lists how ammo is spent based on those rolls. Like, for automatic with a full action. Does that spend a whole mag? How is it determined?

Any plans on adding Chimeras/Executors?

Forgive me if they’re already in, but given Infinite’s lore updates recently made them canonical actors in the setting, I felt it prudent to ask, especially considering I plan on running my own game soon(-ish…). They seem pretty neat!

Questions from new players

Hi!
Me and a couple of friends started playing Halo: Mythic and found a couple questions we couldn't find an answer to -

  • Throwing a grenade - is that a half action, or is it half action to pull the pin, and another to throw? Or something else entirely
  • What're the rules for switching weapons, say from a shotgun to a pistol?

Thanks for the help!

Level of Support on Roll20

Hey, just curious what the general level of support this game has on roll20?

As in compendium stuff, light auto-calculation for crunchier elements, etc.

I just discovered this and would love to play a game with my friends on Forge.vtt

Any idea when the forge version is coming out? There's an existing unofficial version on Forge already, but it seems to be really outdated. I know the update post said Forge content is coming 'soon', but is there any kind of ballpark estimate for that? If it's in the next couple of weeks then my friends and I could just wait, but if it's going to be months or something then I'd like to know so we can just start a game with the outdated version. Better than nothing, right?
