House Rules

Changing Forms - Players can choose to change Forms mid-conflict if they accept Injury or Exhaustion first.

Conflict Quick Reference

CONFLICT – ONE ON ONE

1. Opposing players pick two forms and pick up the corresponding dice.
   1. If players have an applicable particular Strength, pick up its die as well.
2. Players roll their dice and compare their highest results.
3. If all die rolls match, players can mutually agree to back away from the fight. If they decline, each re-roll the lower die.
4. The player who wins lets their dice stand. They dictate their action and challenge.
5. The answering player re-rolls their dice.
6. If the highest die of the challenger at least doubles the highest die of the defender, the fight is over. Set terms.
7. If the highest die of the challenger DOES NOT at least double the highest die of the defender, then 1 of 3 things happens:
   1. If the challenger's die matched or was better than the defender's die, the attacker takes the advantage die and the fight continues.
   2. If the challenger's die is less than the defender's die but better than half, the defender takes the advantage due and the fight continues.
   3. If the challenger's die is half or less than the defender's die, the fight is over. Set terms.
8. The character that rolled lower dice in Round 1 goes on the Owe list at the beginning of Round 2.
9. Negotiate if you want, continue rolling if not.
10. In each additional round, both players re-roll their dice as above but advantage dice are added to their highest result. Perform steps 3 through 6.
11. If the challenger's die match or beat the defender's die in Round 3, they win absolutely. The defender wins absolutely if the challenger's die falls short. Set terms.

CONFLICT – TWO ON ONE OR MORE

1. Challengers should name their target. The defender(s) will re-roll their dice as above.
2. If a defender answers before their turn comes, they don't get a move later.
3. If someone is not challenged, they re-roll their dice and make a challenge and name their target.
4. Multiple combatants can earn advantage dice.

EXHAUSTION: lose a die size from directly and with violence. NPC: lose a die size from both action dice.
INJURED: lose a die size from covertly and for others. NPC: lose a die size from both maneuvering dice.
