Ok, the players I like to play with like to try and help each other out a lot on things they do, and other then teacher help I can't find any rule that allows players to aid one another in a roll. Is there such a creature? and if so what book and page. Im just not finding it.

Wow thanks, man I must be blind.

So if I get this right. if someone has a skill rating of three and scores four hits, the other player can only get a +3 to his dice?

"Only" is a lot. Every little bit helps.

No. Just had a lot of games turn at major turning points due to "Just one extra die", or "One more bonus" that the GM didn't just hand us to keep the story along.

I love that. But I haven't yet experienced the same. after all, you're supposed to be a team. tarting chars might not have a useful second expertise to help the expert in the team. but in a longer campaign, everybody will. And the chars got to know each other IP and trust each other.
M next char will be a jack of all trades offering everybody assistance...hm, maybe the braggart flaw? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

If someone could provide clarification to the following example please.

Three characters with skill 2 attempt to assist the primary character with skill 3.

Is the total amount of Assist dice available if the hits are scored on the primary character

A = 3 characters with 2 hits each = + 6 dice to primary character ( capped at assisting character skill)

Or

B = 3 characters with 2 hits each = +3 dice to primary character ( capped at Primary skill)

The group I play in has been using method B....

Thanks,

IronDrakon

QUOTE (SR4AE Core p.65)
The maximum dice bonus the primary character can receive from teamwork is equal to that character’s skill.

It's right where CanRay said it is.
