==='''SETS AND WIDTH, HEIGHT AND AREA'''=== *When a player rolls their dicepool, look for matches (pairs, triples, etc). Those matching dice are called Sets. A set has Width, Height and Area, and is written as W x H when it's described. The Width of a set is how many dice came up matching, while the Height is what number is matched. Area is only sometimes used, and is width multiplied by height. **eg. Wolfman Jackson takes a swing at a nazi. The results of the roll are 3, 5, 5, 5, 6, 8, and 10. Since three dice came up 5, he has a Set. The set is Width is 3 (three dice are in it), and it's height is 5. This is written as a 3x5 set. *Sets indicate a number of things about the roll. The width of the set determines how quickly the task was performed, while the Height of a set determines whether the task was done sufficiently well enough to overcome certain difficult circumstances. Wider sets are faster. Tall sets (in height) are successful in most difficult situations. *If your roll results in no Sets, your attempt to perform a task fails.
