New page

=Game Rules for Fate-Fudge=
These rules are modelled on [http://www.faterpg.com/dl/ Fate 3.0], the rules system for [http://www.evilhat.com/home/ Evil Hat's] [http://www.evilhat.com/home/?page_id=103 Spirit of the Century] and [http://www.dresdenfilesrpg.com/ Dresden Files RPG]. The magic system is based on [http://www.atlas-games.com/arsmagica/ Ars Magica], which is available [http://e23.sjgames.com/item.html?id=AG0204 free] (and is highly recommended.)

==Significant Departures From Fate 3.0==
I've changed many of the rules from the [http://www.faterpg.com/dl/sotc-srd.html Spirit of the Century SRD]. While [http://spiritoftheblank.blogspot.com/ Spirit of the Blank] has been an inspiration, very little of it has been directly adapted for Geos.

Specific changes include:
* '''Combat: ''' Weapons provide modifiers to hit, to damage and also provide aspects, which can be tagged for effect. Shields provide defense, while armour provides protection. There is no stress track, but a distinction is made between ''situational consequences'' and ''injury consequences''.
* '''Magic: ''' Magic is ''the'' primordial force in Geos. Current approaches, however, can only partially describe it. Imperial thaumatology, currently the dominant theory of magic (among humankind), is explicitly logocentric - magic is equated with language and meaning.
