I agree 100% on the dice pool mechanic. One would think it is very simply, but....as you so aptly put it can be way more than this. I am going to try a small campaign and see what happens. Thanks for your details though, I will mostly likely use them in the review. HDRaef J.

I think all the players believed that it was a simple system and when it comes down to it, it isn’t. Creating a dice pool once you have a few talents out, a party talent in play, skills, specializations, effects of sustained Critical hits, sustained spell modifiers, creatures armor defense and fortune dice options, is complex. During play I made one combat dice roll where the dice pool contained no less than nine modifiers and then realized I should have added another as I was fatigued. On top of this you have to track Fatigue, Stress, Favor (if you are a priest) and at one point I had 5 action cards in front of me all with diminishing tokens on them tracking the rounds before they could be used again. The possibility of making a mistake is huge and by the time I had figured out what the modifiers were I had almost forgotten who I was hitting and why. The players did not come to a definitive conclusion last night but I think we may well see out the adventure and call it a day.&quot;Kevinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12716981663270941093noreply@blogger.com
