    Should be fine unless you hit the throttle. Bad idea though because if it goes wrong lol

        Most start with the throttle locked on and choke up, but that’s why they have a blade brake.

        I haven’t seen one where it starts with the throttle on as in it would be moving the chain without the lock. I’ve had to do it manually on one though when it didn’t want to start otherwise.

            It’s normal for a cold start, I haven’t seen a chainsaw which didn’t want at least some throttle to start from cold (old saws might not have the choke/throttle interlock for this but you use your boot to keep it on). Even the pre chain brake saws I’ve used have been like this - you just have to be aware of where you put the saw when starting it.

            Hot starts are another matter as they should fire up nicely on idle once warm.

              Last time I commented this same thing on this picture someone reminded me that chainsaws often use centripetal clutches so there’s a bunch of ways it can accidentally engage without actually hitting the throttle

              A major way is usually the engine runs at higher RPM while choked, so without the brake on, idling with the choke on will likely move the chain with “don’t want it up your crotch” amounts of power.

                Came to say the same thing. Technically he should be fine but I would never want to test that theory out. For those who don’t know there’s a spot to put your foot to hold it down while you start it up.

                Nope, when the chainsaw starts up it runs a little fast, especially when the choke is engaged. It’s going to spin the chain at least a little bit.

                It won’t spin the chain for long, but it’ll spin for long enough.

                  This is a roll the DM should make. It’s better to not know a rolls number in a situation like this. Very few players can roll play and ignore meta information like knowing they crit failed. It’s more fun to play the character in ignorance of that knowledge. Only the outcome.

                  Eh, it’s group dependant - some of my players love hamming up their characters’ failures!

                    For the intelligence level of a fighter, that kinda checks out

                      That’s been my experience too. My players are much harder on themselves with hard fails than I would be.

                        Excuse me, captain, I’m not an adventurer, I am a traveler just passing through on private business… You can’t detain me here because I’m not a “subject person” as defined by regal law! Hey, who’s that guy with the blackjack?

                          Everyone knows that the Thayans aren’t actually ruled by the Zulkir but by a council of Efreeti from the astral planes.

                          And don’t even get me started on the ivy border of the flag of the Elven court.
