Basing this on 1E:Remember: <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">the round is comprised of segments, and no character takes more than one declared action per segment, and only one reaction per segment. Each segment in 1E is resolved in descending order of skill roll. In 2E, it's descending order of initiative.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">reactions have to be declared BEFORE the attack is rolled. Remember that actions are declared at the start of the round, not the segment, PC and NPC alike, but the GM should restate NPCs targets at start of segment, so players can make the reactions if they wish.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">ALL attackers in  the round overcome ONE dodge/parry roll, it's not separate per player.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Each rules upgrade/edition has changed the defense reactions rules slightly, but the above remains true in all 1e.</li> </ul>No ReactionsEliminate reaction dodges/parries. Make it just another declared action, one that lasts from the segment taken until the end of the round. If you want to ensure your dodge works, it's your 1st pass action, but then, there's a strong possibility you might not get your second pass. If you make it second pass, you might not get to dodge, but you're going to shoot.Use the d6 Legends dice mechanic instead of the d6 standard D6 Legends dice are count successes. 3-6 are successes; 6 on the wild die still succeeds. Difficulties divide by 5, then add 1, pips are ignored except for advancement and breaking ties on resolution order.  Modifiers of +2 to +6 are reduced to +1, +7 to +11 are +2 , +12 to +16 are +3, and so on. This reduces resolution times a lot, BUT, it also reduces granularity and swing. Note that the expectation of the die is 2/3 success per die, but the variability is relatively low; a more variable option is instead of 0/0/1/1/1/1, go to 0/0/0/1/1/2 (4-5=1s, 6=2s).</blockquote>
