Stress Effects

Wed 27 Apr 2022, 17:03

The Stress Effects for being Broken by stress look pretty good for noir detective stories!
Also, I'm hoping the game uses the Alien d6 dice pool system, but the description of rolling on the stress table sounds like there are different types of dice, like Twilight 2000. T2000's system is fine, I just personally prefer the d6 pools from Alien, etc.
I'm definitely going all-in on this Kickstarter.

Well spotted. I like the T2K dice - it feels more Sci-Fi. I think Alien used a pool mechanic mainly because Ripley said she had a 'class-2 rating' !

I like that the bad rolls... 1's I guess... Are origami unicorn symbols, and the good results are eyes I think.
Looking forward to seeing the actual design of the dice sets.

I’m thinking there are going to be T2K style polyhedral dice, but different to T2K in that the base (attribute) dice have the unicorn 1 and the skill dice do not.

That would require the dice sets to have two of each die, unless maybe they do something really weird and skills only have d6's.
Or... Maybe there will be something like Ammo Dice from T2000 (but not ammo dice).
I'm also hoping for a dice tray. The T2000 one is nice.
If there is a box set, will the map be the city? That would be cool.
