[QUOTE="Primitive Screwhead, post: 4314133, member: 20805"] Stalker, the 3x rules by Penumbra for social encounters take the diplomancy rolls, etc and turn them into a combat-esque process that has 'hit points' on each side. Perhaps remove the 'success' and failures with a set number of hit points. A success deals 3 points of damage. A failure deals 0 points and may have other implications later. Then replace 'aid another' with a check vs the simple DC that deals 1 point of damage on a success. This allows the low skill monkey to still impact the success of the group. Of course, you would need some attrition measure or time limit on the encounter. Perhaps 5 'rounds' per challenge levels. This would have to be set just right so that the low skill characters would need to act in order for the group to succeed. --or, maybe I am talking out of my 4th point of contact :) [/QUOTE]
