I mistakenly made the best game in the world a year ago and this is it.

I'm calling the system I'm working on Ternion unless something better comes to me. It's 3d4 and has a result matrix you refer to when rolling. I'm happy with it so far! It's a system for characters who succeed much more often than not, but not always without getting scuffed up in the process.

I take core resolution mechanics a bit seriously. I like to know how they work before I build off of them. Here, I found a curve I like for determining whether PCs get what they want, get it at a cost, or fail and suffer for it.

Me, trying to sound interesting at a party: "S-so, how about those rules eliding, huh?"

Toying around with a 3d4 core for a bizarre fantasy heist game. For clarity, Tier+0 is a threat or obstacle equal to the players. But that doesn’t mean a 50% chance of success of failure. It means absoute success, with a 68% chance of paying a cost for it.

My first published game! Scrungeon! grandeschaton.itch.io/scrungeon
