    Sure I'll post the links here as soon as we can. Good idea on the commentary - it might be a bit busy audio wise for that, I think a video version (mine was audio only) would allow that better as I can add subtitles and will bear that in mind.

    I actually like players fearing PC death - knowing that I'm willing to do it, I won't unless they're stupid but if they don't BELIEVE the GM will let their character die then the drama has little excitement. Now there is also great story telling in characters dying and it can be a fun part of...

    Well the Threat can be spent directed at the character generating the Threat. But also this is the point if you're spending a lot of Threat, it's a balance. If guards are going down because of a player buying loads of dice it pays back - you don't know how or when, but it's coming. It doesn't...

    Except the GM can do whatever he likes with those Threat Points - but it's a mechanic to help increase the sense of dread amongst the players and IT WORKS when you play the game Bob. I don't know if you've tried it yet? We will be posting a play through soon including the epic Howard's Day game...

    When you say 'tougher' what the GM is about to do is make the story more interesting, Threat points as they're called, accumulate when players buy extra d20's on top of the 2 they get to roll normally (wanting to push their luck) or when they roll a 20. The GM doesn't have to take the points...

    Sorry my mistake on the earlier, comment I corrected it in the later post. A Crit Fail only happens when you roll one or more 20's AND fail on your skill test. I'll edit my earlier post!
