This approach of being generous seems agnostic on whether you are doing it through mechanics or ad hoc adjudication. Player skill approach is usually describe it narratively and avoid mechanics with resolution based on DM judgment. Sometimes it is second person just coming up with a plan...

It’s all choice and preference. There are rpgs where your actual skill at swinging a sword versus your opponent’s actual skill determines if you hit them. Live action roleplaying games like the old NERO. I’ve done that and it’s fun. There are LARPs like Mind’s Eye Theatre where combat is turned...

CGR1 The Complete Spacefarers Handbook (2e) 2e Undead: ? Spiritjam: ? Spirit Warrior: ? Stellar Undead: ?

For me this is the one I want the most, and mostly in combat. I run D&D and combat happens a lot and I don't want some players to be outclassed by others every time combat comes up. I want it to be a team activity where everyone participates meaningfully. 4e was fantastic on doing this and...
