Editing BDH: Game Mods

__NOTOC__
We will be using the following Mods in this game.

'''Action Resolution'''(ish)''':''' We will be using a single opposed roll to determine the success or failure of a given action. I will put together an opposing pool to the player's roll if they are initiating the action. If I am initiating the action, I will roll before the player or assign a static difficulty. <u>'''Ties go to the Player'''</u>.

'''Asset Generation:''' Players can generate scene assets via pp spend or by using an action to roll for them. Purchased assets are [[file:d6a.png|24px|d6]] assets unless an SFX converts them to [[file:d8a.png|24px|d8]] Rolled assets are always [[file:d8a.png|24px|d8]] assets.
:'''Note:''' Rolled assets must be justifiable in the fiction as something the character can produce through their own agency, Rolled assets just appear as something that was always there but is just now appearing 'on screen' as it were.

:'''Note:''' Any scene asset can be converted to an episode asset if the player spends a pp to do so before the end of the scene.

'''Big Damned Hero Dice:''' If a player beats the GM's roll or static difficulty by 5 or more, the Character earns a Big Damned Hero Die equal to the highest die type in the GM's pool or a [[file:d8a.png|24px|d8]] vs a static difficulty.

'''Complications:''' This game uses complications to track character and environmental setbacks. Complications stepped up to [[file:d12a.png|24px|d12]]'''+''' provide additional narrative leverage for the GM to use in the story (environmental complications) or take out the character in question (character complications). Players can keep their character from being taken out by spending a pp and taking an appropriate complication ranked at the highest die type from the pool that would have taken them out.

'''Effect Dice:''' We won't be using effect dice.

'''Plot Points:''' Players start each episode with 1 pp and may earn pp via SFX and GM purchased hitches. All plot point spend options from '''p28-29''' apply except ''Join a Contest'' since we are not using contests.

:'''GM Plot Points:''' GM starts each episode with 1 pp per player and may earn subsequent pp with GMC SFX.

'''Opportunities:''' Players may purchase GM rolled opportunities to step back complications or to step up an asset for the scene.

'''Stress Tracks''' model a character's personal stress for social, physical, and magical conditions. Stress is accrued when a character fails a high stakes action. The amount accrued is determined by the effect die from the opposed pool - static difficulty will never be used for high stakes rolls. Effect die rated at [[file:d4a.png|24px|d4]] cannot produce or step up stress.

:'''Despair:''' This track measures a character's social reserves.

:'''Dweomer:''' This track measures a character's magical reserves.

:'''Fatigue:''' This track measures a character's physical reserves.


----
'''Complications''' model environmental obstacles. Complications accrue when a character rolls a Hitch.

Stress and complications never start lower than [[file:d6a.png|24px|d6]] and drop off when stepped below [[file:d6a.png|24px|d6]]
