I’m gearing up to resurrect my Gaslight Heroes campaign setting and I’m thinking through which system will be the best fit for my game group while running games virtually. Here is the criteria I’m considering.
I’m terribly bad about posting game recaps, but I need to at least do a good job of tracking advancement 🙂
Last week we finished our four game. Our advancement history is as follows:
I’ll try to create a page with dates and better tracking. For now we just have this blog post.
Excerpted from Fate Core:
Minor milestones usually occur at the end of a session of play, or when one piece of a story has been resolved.
During a minor milestone, you can choose to do one (and only one) of the following:
Significant milestones usually occur at the end of a scenario or the conclusion of a big plot event (or, when in doubt, at the end of every two or three sessions).
In addition to the benefit of a minor milestone, you also gain both of the following:
A major milestone should only occur when something happens in the campaign that shakes it up a lot—the end of a story arc (or around three scenarios), the death of a main NPC villain, or any other large-scale change that reverberates around your game world.
Achieving a major milestone confers the benefits of a significant milestone and a minor milestone, and all of the following additional options:
During character creation, you organized your skills into a pyramid. You don’t have to stick to that for character advancement.
However, there’s still a limitation you have to deal with, skill columns. This means you can’t have more skills at a certain rank than you have at the rank below it. So if you have three Good columns, you have at least three Average (+1) skills and at least three Fair (+2) skills to support your three Good (+3) skills.
This last Thursday we spent a session doing group campaign creation, which included the Lifepath exercise shown the this picture. We’re using Fate Core and Venture City Superpowers. Should be a great campaign!
Check out the campaign charter and campaign page.
