Here’s what I’m thinking for the basic die roll for the dice pool system. The broad outline for how stats and such work is the same as for the most recent version of the Hero Die + Trope Die system, but with a dice pool set up. That way instead of fiddling with the difference between rolls, we just go straight to the “big” successes that were previously called Raises, Overkill, etc.
And yes, deciding arbitrarily that this was Cinemechanix v23 inspired me to make the mechanics explicitly Discordian. I’ve mentioned before that I’m no longer crazy about the name “Cincemechanix,” and I’m kind of thinking about calling it the Version 23 (or V23) system.
The page is public, so you can view it even if you don’t have a World Anvil account yet (though you’ll need to set one up eventually if you want to see the Patron-only stuff). My basic plan here is to make the core system rules public (hopefully people will playtest it) and make the more detailed rules for specific settings (Hobomancer, M-Force, Diner Punks, etc.) Â Patron-only.
