We've already decided we're going to use one of two versions of the Hacking "tweak" from unwired. We still haven't decided which one to use though, because we're kind of split philosophically. Here they are:
#1) Use [Stat + Skill] Cap Hits @ Program RTG (like spell force). #2) Use [Program RTG + Skill] Cap Hits @ Stat The first says basically a person is only as good as their tools. The second says it takes a smart person to get the BEST out of their tools. So with #1 if you have a script kiddy and a pro using the same Warez, the vet gets more hits but can't keep any more if the kiddy gets lucky. With #2 and the same basic conditions, the kiddy will have almost the same dice pool, and the keep pools are also potentially closer. Philosophically I could go either way. In terms of Crunchy BitzTM I'm more likely to go with #1 because it favors the veteran more heavily IMHO and because it's also CONSISTENT with the Magic Spell mechanics. Thoughts? (Remember, I'm biased playing with all three DP caps in if that affects your opinion.) -Kerenshara |
