[QUOTE="Ovinomancer, post: 8682615, member: 16814"] Um. Why would they be was the question, turning it around doesn't seem like fair play. But, okay. Scores in Blades, or missions in whatever, are not planned, fixed length affairs. There is no target number of actions to resolve, or length of activity. You cannot find anything in any of the books that suggests this. In fact, you have this bit: "A score can be long and involved or short and sweet. There might be lots of rolls and trouble, or just a few actions to resolve it. [I]Play to find out what happens![/I] A score doesn’t need to fill one session of play every time. Let it be however long it is." This clearly indicates, with reference to "play to find out" that there shouldn't even be really a plan for how long a score is going in. So, yeah, there's no reason that a score for 2 would look anything like a score for 4. Because that fiction is different, and what happens in play is different. [/QUOTE]
