Combat
Initiative |
Method 1: Whoever is making the most significant actions gets to go first |
| |
Method 2: Roll on Perception, go in that order |
Actions |
One action (move, attack, etc.) per round |
| |
For each additional action over the first one in the same round, you take a cumulative 1D penalty for the round. Ex. You move and shoot, both of those actions are at a 1D penalty. Another round, you move, shoot, then shoot again - every action that round is a 2D penalty |
Waiting |
Players may wait, but it costs one action |

Character Improvement (spending Character Points)
Cost to gain one pip in a NEW skill |
Cost per pip = the number of dice of the matching attribute. Ex. You have 3D in knowledge, and want to add a pip in Languages. The pip will code 3 points |
Cost to improve an EXISTING skill |
Cost per pip = the number of dice you have in that skill. Ex. You have 4D+2 in Dodge. To gain another pip, it will be 4 character pts |

Rolling Dice
Wild Die |
One of the dice from your pool should always be a different color, as it's your Wild Die (ex, you have 3D in fighting, so you roll 2d plus your third die will be a different color and be the wild die) |
| |
If your wild die is a 6, it explodes and can be re-rolled until a 6 no longer comes up |
| |
If your wild die is a 1,the GM may choose to negate your highest die roll in the pool, or keep all the dice but introduce a new challenge or complication |
| |
If you only have 1 die available to roll, that die is a wild die |
Spending Character pts to boost the roll |
You may buy a bonus Wild Die by spending a Character Point |
| |
Spent CP can be re-earned at the GM's discretion for doing cool stuff |
Spending Fate Points on the Roll |
Player may spend a Fate Point to double the base dice (attrib and skill, but not wild dice, weapon bonus dice, etc) they roll |
| |
Fate Points recover VERY slowly, based on the character's moral code, personality, etc. These are NOT Bennies like in Savage Worlds, they take quite a bit to regenerate. |
