Cinemechanix: Or Maybe Not?

Steve Johnson7 years ago3 years ago01 mins

The original reason for adding Tags and Focuses (specialization) to the rules for Edges was to allow character to better describe their characters with more specific traits without being penalized compared to players who go with more generic skills.

Cinemechanix: Edges 2: Hammer Fight!

Steve Johnson7 years ago3 years ago02 mins

Last week I talked about the specialization rules for Edges that I’m hoping to start playtesting soon. Just as a reminder, there are 3 levels of Edges: The Edge itself, which gives you a number of die bonuses equal to the rating and cost 5 points; A Tag, which gives you an extra die bonus…

Cinemechanix: Role-Playing and Story Mechanics

Steve Johnson7 years ago3 years ago01 mins
