Playtest Update 0.2


This update became a bit larger than I expected, but I think it was worth the extra time & effort!

Major Updates

  • Rage is no longer roll under/over. Now, your Rage level determines the threshold for checks and players always want to roll high.
  • No more d10! Everything uses a d6 now.
  • Inciting Incidents are more tightly defined, with new rules to hook players in the first scene.
  • Complications have been redesigned slightly to simply the process for Directors and  build more narratively.

New Content

  • Advice for Players and Directors has been added.
  • Items are significantly fleshed out.
  • Setting info added.
  • Character sheets, session sheets, and rules references are in separate PDFs now.

Minor Updates

  • Tables added for Vice & starting Loadout in character creation.
  • Rage Check renamed to Risk Check.
  • Normal Check renamed to Safe Check.
  • Complex Task renamed to Montage.

Excited to share these changes! These were based on in-person playtesting and written reviews—the goal is to streamline the rules while providing some additional tools/tables to create exciting situations at the table.

P.S. The layout has suffered in a couple places in order to accommodate the new rules—that will get fixed eventually.
