| |
| This is the system for use with [[The Castle]]. It is designed to accompany the [[Chit system]]
| |
|
| |
|
| This document is very much a work in progress.
| |
| ==Experience==
| |
| Starting characters typically have 10xp and so 4 cards.
| |
| In the [[Chit system]] it costs between 1 and 4xp to buy an Advantage.
| |
|
| |
| ==The Hand==
| |
| Players will have a number of Action Cards in their hand dependent on the character's experience.
| |
| ===Number of Action Cards Allowed===
| |
| <table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3">
| |
| <tr><th>xp</th><td>1</td><td>3</td><td>6</td><td>10</td><td>15</td><td>21</td><td>28</td><td>...</td></tr>
| |
| <tr><th>Cards</th><td>1</td><td>2</td><td>3</td><td>4</td><td>5</td><td>6</td><td>7</td><td>...</td></tr>
| |
| </table>
| |
| ===Gaining Cards===
| |
| Starting characters draw a number of Action Cards from the random pack dependent on their starting experience.
| |
| At the start of each session each player draws an Action Card from the random pack and adds any other cards based on Assets the character may have.
| |
| Before play starts, the player must discard cards down to their allowable number of cards.
| |
| ===Character Sheets===
| |
| Given the simplicity of the [[Chit system]] the character sheet can be printed or written on one or two cards and held in the hand with the Action Cards.
| |
|
| |
| ==Assets==
| |
| Assets are traits of that the character has that allows them to draw additional cards at the start of each session.
| |
| *Charm
| |
| *Contacts
| |
| *Fencing
| |
| *Marksman
| |
|
| |
| ==The Cards==
| |
| ''There needs to be at least 40 different cards before we start.''
| |
| ===Playing Cards===
| |
| When a card is played it is either handed to the ref. The ref may vito any card play.
| |
| ===The Cards===
| |
| The italic list for each card are the Assets to which they are relevant.
| |
| If possible cards should be made disposable, so that they can be written on by the player. e.g. when drawing a cards against the Contacts Asset, the player should note that it is relevant to a certain type of contact.
| |

| You provide assistance to another character that makes their current action Advantaged.
| |
