[QUOTE="Cwheeler, post: 4431601, member: 72242"] I'll post up the work in progress later! Social encounters are for situations larger than something that requires a single skill check or challenge, such as a scene in a bar, a masquerade ball, or even negotiating through a military camp. A social encounter uses 'beats' instead of rounds (a term borrowed from theater analysis). In a beat, each player involved in the encounter has a chance to move around the encounter and engage in a skill check, or engage in a minor skill challenge. the exact duration of a beat is variable, and can change depending on the pace and tempo of the situation. Because of the beat system, it is easy to transition into and out of combat with very little fuss, with beats transforming into rounds. I would talk about it more, but I have to head off. More to come soon :). [/QUOTE]
