[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 7504369, member: 6704184"] Very interesting! In my own WIP game, I have the six classic attributes, except I put wisdom and int together, and subbed in Will. But they don’t add to skills in the same way DnD does. Instead, they are resource pools. Your score is a number of points you have to spend. Your skills have specialties (3 each), and you add them together to make a dice pool when rolling for them. If you flub a roll, you can spend an Attribute Point to reroll (we're experimenting with rolling extra dice equal to your Attribute score to add to the check, but for now it’s a reroll), or you can simply upgrade a success to the next tier of success. You can use any Attribute that makes sense, as long as no one at the table objects. If there is an objection, the GM decides. You can also spend those points to activate special abilities, magic item properties, or use more powerful, advanced, uses of your skills. [/QUOTE]
