    Fourward Path

    I though this part was interesting... "When faced with a challenge, there are a few ways to approach it, but in the abstract, they break down into four different approaches: First, you can try to circumvent it. You can elude it, go around or otherwise avoid engaging it on its terms. Second...

    Rob Donoghue wrote a very interesting series of articles developing a Skill Challenge system that is clever and contains these kind of elements... http://rdonoghue.blogspot.ca/2011/01/situation-problem.html http://rdonoghue.blogspot.ca/2011/01/fighting-situation.html...
