[QUOTE="Umbran, post: 6426685, member: 177"] Don't confuse my narrative explanation for it being an Oops rule. When I explained it, perhaps it looked like the narrative gets rewritten after the fact. That's not how it works in play. In play, the players know there is some amount of damage coming in. They simply put it where they want it - Each character can take so many levels of Stress, and can take Consequences on top of that. The organization can also take Consequences. It is like saying each PC has their own pouch of gold, and the party also collectively keeps a War Chest to draw upon when someone needs extra cash. It isn't an Oops Rule, it is just another resource. In addition, the Consequences the Organization takes will have meaning in future play. It isn't like the players can have the Org take the damage for them, and they can just ignore it and not care in the future. Organizations can change their fundamental nature through this system.
