2. cell 4 goes to "...1. stay put, no progress.<br />2. cell 4 goes to "fiddle clicky bit" on a roll of 20-89, on a roll of 90+ it advances to position 5.<br />3. they stay put, they can continue to bash the device like a 1970's television set (risking the oops chance), continue with another course of action (goto step 4) or just give up.<br /><br />3a. brings us back to 4 because one has chosen to stop bashing the device but to continue to try to work out the device.<br /><br />The square cells and the diamonds are all equally positions in figuring out the device. Heading back to before you started doesn't mean the device has downgraded (unless the GM wants to be a stinker I suppose) it just means it's going to take longer to figure out.JDJarvishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07691101939920824546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8170674472098446028.post-3057551961427481162016-05-17T09:23:13.966-04:002016-05-17T09:23:13.966-04:001).

(5) What if one 'bashes it' and rolls less than 50?<br />3a). (5) No taking us back to (4) and my Q1.

If you roll under 50 you can keep on bashing it or decide to quit bashing it (unless you roll 10 or less which sends you to Oops! <br />4. The bash it option could probably be tried whenever but it would only provide a difference when called out as a step on the chart. 5.

Questions:
1....Very interesting and idea provoking.<br />Questions:<br />1. Do the players know this is what the chart looks like?<br />2. Is it better/worse if they do?<br />3. So is "bash it!" where you go if you're on 5 and roll under 50? Not quite sure I understand.<br />4. Could something like "bash it!" always be an option, whose chances for success/failure varied according to where you were in the chart? You would have to write it so that it was a not irrational response to being stuck--promising a way out but also greater potential danger. <br />5. What program/tool did you use to create the flowchart?Oakes Spaldinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08078500142758654392noreply@blogger.com
