Neither. Thee amount of shifts above defense determine stress or consequence.

Or the effect die will determine the consequence.

Marvel Heroic Roleplaying. It's out of print, but you can get Cortex Prime and easily get the rules.

How system agnostic is it? Can it run, say, FATE?

I had fun with my yungun with Argyle and Crew, a kid focused RPG where you create sock puppets as characters.

I don't get the hate either. It's a perfectly cromulent show. It innovates within a franchise, while paying homage for its predecessors, without derailing into fan service/derivative nostalgia porn. That's a hard thing to accomplish.

And I see the critiques and while they're valid, they're mostly "this show isn't a masterpiece", which yes. But fucking Virgin River got renewed for a sixth season, it makes no sense to not renew this one.

So regular kids don't get to be safe? Oof.

My hero!

I spent quite some time on DDG, couldn't find it. Really appreciate it.

 

I saw a meme here on Lemmy and can't seem to find it again. Or on Google. It's a 3-panel format that goes like this:

Image Text
IMG 1 A bullet may have your name on it
IMG 2 But a grenade says only "to whom it may concern"
Ripley w/ flamethrower "Dear area residents"

Anyone seen it?

Largest "Small Craft"

Currently working on designs for some larger "small craft". variant Shuttles, a Marine Dropship, and a larger Marine Assault Carrier. The dropship is 40 dton, and the shuttle variants are 100, 200, and 500 dtons, the assault carrier is probably 400 dtons. What is the range of small craft in your Traveller universe?
