[QUOTE="Manbearcat, post: 7328152, member: 6696971"] Great post darkbard. Its getting late for me and I still have some things to do before the night is done (I'm travelling tomorrow and will be out of town until Saturday evening so I won't be able to come back to this until Sunday). I was going to provide an illustration for mechanizing the above scenario (in the same way that I did in your other thread; Complexity, Level, Action Economy, Goal/Stakes, Overall Combat Encounter Level). As an exercise and a point of conversation, would you, or anyone else, care to take a crack at mechanizing what I outlined in the lead post? * Assume 3 PCs * Pick a combat encounter budget and outline it * Pick a complexity and level for the SC * Come up with prospects of micro-failure (for outright failing or failing to engage with the SC on a round) and macro-failure for hitting the Loss condition of the SC. * Establish an Action Economy for the SC (eg Move Action for Primary Checks and Minor Action for Secondary) Depict (as I did in your thread) what a round of the encounter may look like? If no one takes up the effort by the time I return, I'll write it out here for further conversation. [/QUOTE]
