Hello! In regular Mork Borg, Omens can be used to neutralize a crit or a fumble. But that bit of text is missing in Cthork Borg (other uses for Omens are the same as in regular Mork Borg). Is leaving out neutralizing crits & fumbles intentional here in Cthork Borg? Thanks!
Ah, this falls under rerolling a die. You can reroll crits and fumbles just as you would any other die---although if you want to rule as the GM that crits and fumbles are immune to omen'd rerolls, that's totally okay too!
The wording for 'neutralize' felt a little unclear when I was reading Mork (is a neutralized crit fail a regular fail? does it get rerolled? can more omens be spent on a neutralized roll?) so I removed the bit about neutralizing and just left the bit about rerolling dice.
Ah...I understand now...the 'neutralize' a crit or fumble is essentially already included under the 'reroll a die' provision...meaning that a player can set down an Omen and declare that the crit or fumble they just rolled is to be re-rolled (neatly side-stepping the whole 'neutralize' question). Thank you for helping me process this information - very helpful!
