Editing Scale

=Scale=
I have noticed in play that scale tends to slow things down, lead to lots of back and forth, or lots of behavior I don't particularly enjoy (analysis paralysis and retconning). The following is a modification to the scale system to try to reduce that. Specifically:

-The decision point is removed, so you do not decide between a +1 or +2 shifts if you succeed. Instead, scale has a specific impact on outcomes that. 
-The number of steps of difference between scale are eliminated. Either one side has scale advantage or not.  


==Scale Advantage==

Succeed- You succeed and gain a boost. 

Succeed with Style- You succeed and create an aspect with a free invoke on it. 

Fail- You can accomplish your goal at a cost or you fail.

Tie- You succeed.
