[QUOTE="billd91, post: 5465982, member: 3400"] [b]Galaxy of Intrigue[/b] expands on many of the elements of skill challenges initially presented in 4e with plenty of sample skill challenges developed right from the movies so it's really easy to see how the concept of a skill challenge could play out. There is also a fairly extensive example of play that, I think, makes it clear that the players can be driving the use of skills while the GM decides, based on their input, whether or not a use of a skill contributes to the success of the challenge. There's also a number of options for what successes and failures really mean in a skill challenge.
