[QUOTE="SolidPlatonic, post: 7718945, member: 6867213"] [PHP][/PHP]OH, I get that the symbols are equivalent. But if you haven't played SWRPG but are using the SWRPG dice with Genesys, you'll have to do a translation in your head every time. I ran the SWRPG starter boxes for several groups, and the problem they had was which dice to use and the symbols, anyhow. Now imagine you are a new/casual player, and the the Genesys book says you get a <Genesys Sybmol> advantage but you rolled a <SWRPG advantage>. It could get confusing. Further, the various symbols could easily be mistaken: failure SWRPG looks like Advantage Genesys. Threat SWRPG kinda looks like Triumph Genesys, etc. So the $100 I spent on getting all the dice I would need is basically down the shoots if I want to play a fantasy RPG with Genesys. [/QUOTE]
