[QUOTE="PCIHenry, post: 5522267, member: 14863"] Hello my Inquisitive friend, Sorry for the delay in responding, but its been a busy day of "lawyering" today. ;-) They have a variety of uses from the standard re-roll a failed check or the avoid death I mentioned. One of the interesting rules we developed for Fate points is a Last Man Standing rule. If you are the only person of your group still up, the other players may pool their Fate points and "give": them to that player (and they're gone, even if not used). That Player may now use those points, as well as ignore the "One Point per action" rule. This gives that "Last Stand" a very heroic feel and tends to avoid that TPK. Our adventures have instructions on awarding XP to those who role-play their way out of a situation, i.e. Avoid Combat when possible and for diplomatic solutions. However, there isn't a "mechanism" written per se'. Yes, if your Attribute die comes up with the max number it can roll, such as a 6 on a d6 or an 8 on a d8, then it explodes and you can re-roll THAT die only again. If your Action Dice roll 'Double 00" then you have struck a critical blow. This means you not only do the normal damage, but your opponent also suffers a Wound. As for crazy things, we can combine spells to create a brand new effect, as well as doing the same with Weapon Maneuvers. Glad you liked the cover. If you have any further questions, just let me know. Best, [/QUOTE]
