| |
| − | ==='''Presence'''===
| |
| − | Presence represents a characters force of personality. While it can be impacted by your characters Status or Rank, it is more about how your character carries themselves, how they presents themselves to others. With nothing but a stern look they can silence on lookers and drive conversations. This Ability replaces Status. <br>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Specialties:''' <br>
| |
| − | ''Inspire'' <br>
| |
| − | The Character's very presence is enough to bolster their allies and drive them to excel. A Character may make a Presence (Inspiration) Test at a Challenging (9) Difficulty. For each Degree of Success, the Inspiring Character generates a Bonus Die which may then be distributed to Characters that witnessed the speech, however no character may gain more than a one Bonus Die in this way. During Warfare Scale Conflicts, Units are considered Characters for this purpose. <br>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ''Reputation'' <br>
| |
| − | You test Presence when determining initiative during Intrigues. Your reputation greatly improves the attitudes of others and the respect you command grants you the opportunity to speak first. <br>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ''Tact'' <br>
| |
| − | Presence is more than your bearing, it also includes your training and education in social etiquette, customs and traditions and the expected behavior of others. You may test Presence to determine what would be the appropriate action or response in a social situation. Further, those with high Presence (4 or more) will often be more willing to consider you if you adhere to social conventions. At the start of an Intrigue with a character with a Presence of 4 or above, you may test Presence (Tact) against their Intrigue Defense. If you succeed you gain a Bonus Die that may be used at any point during the Intrigue, plus an additional Die for every 2 Degrees of Success beyond the first. <br>

| |
| − | '''Other Uses:''' <br>

| |
| − | ==='''Survival'''===
| |
| − | '''New Specialties''': <br>
| |
| − | ''Animal Handling'': <br>
| |
| − | This Specialty replaces the Animal Handling Ability. Any rule that requires the Animal Handling Ability is satisfied by this Specialty. <br>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ==='''Thievery'''===
| |
| − | '''New Specialty:''' <br>
| |
| − | ''Slice'' <br>
| |
| − | This Specialty covers hacking, decoding, and overriding computers, droids, and electronic security systems. Common Systems are a Challenging (9) Difficulty, Excellent Systems are a Hard (15), and high end Military Encryptions are a Heroic (21) or higher. <br>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ==='''Will'''===
| |
| − | '''Updated Usage''': <br>
| |
| − | ''Coordinate'': <br>
| |
| − | The Will Skill allows a Character to make assistance from others more effective. When a Character is making a Test and is being added by at least two additional Characters, their aid can be coordinated by another character. The Coordinating Character makes a Will (Coordination) Test at a Challenging (9) Difficulty. For every Degree of Success, the Primary Character gains an additional Bonus Dice. The Primary Character can only gain a number of Bonus Dice equal to the number of Characters that were providing Assistance, not including the Coordinating Character. Any test that benefits from Coordination takes twice as long to complete. <br>

| |
| − | =='''Combat'''==
| |
| − | ==='''Stamina'''===
| |
| − | Stamina replaces Health from ASOIAF. I never like the term Health. Stamina replaces Health in all aspects, and it functions in same way. It represents your characters physical ability to stay in combat, but also their will to fight. Once your Stamina is gone, your character submits and is defeated.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ==='''Mobs'''===
| |
| − | These rules are designed to handle up to a half-squad (5 dudes) of tertiary characters as a single individual. Take the Stats of a single tertiary Character. For each additional Dude beyond the first add the Tertiary Characters Endurance to their Stamina. Then Consult the following: <br>
| |
| − | '''1 Extra Dude - +1 to all Rolls''' <br>
| |
| − | '''2 Extra Dudes - +1 to all Rolls''' <br>
| |
| − | '''3 Extra Dudes - +1B to Tests''' <br>
| |
| − | '''4 Extra Dudes - +1D to Tests''' <br>
| |
| − | (Example: a 10 man Squad of Stormtroopers would become two 5 man mobs. If the Stormtroopers had Endurance 2, Marksman 3 (Blasters 1B) you would have two mobs that acted like a single individual with an Endurance of 2, Stamina 14 and Marksman 4 (Blasters 2B)+2.) <br>
| |
| − | Attacks and Actions are taken against the Mob as a single target, as appropriate – some actions just don’t make sense. Each time the Mob is successfully hit, reduce the Bonuses they are provided down one step. So if you successfully hit the 5 man mob, it would lose the +1D. <br>
