Yeah, it's on the early PDFs but not on the ones now available in DTRPG. Doesn't seem to be referenced in any of the versions of the rules I have though.

Question that Ebon Hawk asked on Discord that so far no-one's had an answer to - the character sheet includes a Favored Gear section, but this does not seem to be referenced anywhere. The pre-gen characters for Electric Dreams each have an item listed here, but it does not appear in their Gear or We...

On the Harpys' behaviour, is it really intended that a separate monster attack is generated for each harpy in the flock? That is what the revised wording seems to say since each only ises one Harpy's action despite being performed by several. This means that the more harpies there are the more each ...

I don't have any insight into the creation of those probability tables, and would be interested in an official answer myself. But note that your math assumes that all dice (that did not show a success on the first try) can be rerolled. In some YZE games, including the original Mutant: Year Zero , y...

On Discord we've just been discussing the table which shows the probability of getting a success which appears in the YZE games. It seems to be the same table in all the D6 pool based games. The chance to get at least one success should be one minus (the chance to not get any successes). The chance ...

It works for me, the system is designed to be fast and simple with minimal maths.
Also, according to my analysis the averages for Bane, Normal and Boon are 7.175, 10.5 and 13.825 so a bane is pretty serious.

Once you move from rubber to steel swords things change a lot because the way they move over each other in the bind is important to many techniques. Yes, we have noticed, the stuff that the two longsword fighters does in the first video where they "knix" and trix over each others swords -...

Welcome to the club! Once you move from rubber to steel swords things change a lot because the way they move over each other in the bind is important to many techniques. Also, remember that the compromises we make for safety in our swordplay affect how things work - eg if you aren't hitting the head...

Trying to extrapolate from modern sports to life or death combat is doomed to failure, because modern sports prohibit the very techniques that would be most effective as they cause serious injury or death. Which leaves you with things that are based on doing high impact (and the ability to resist th...

Interesting ideas, and a useful discussion. My thoughts on the points raised: 1 - Skills do matter, if you don't get under your skill you failed anyway. It's not simply who rolled lower. The mechanics are designed to remove the need to do any maths, just roll and check result against your skill and ...
