Combat goes Players first, then Storyteller.

Damage _____ by PCs, when it matters:
Suffered: 9 - Roll. 
Dealt: Roll - 9. 

If Damage is higher than Endurance, target is Wounded: PCs roll -1 die, players roll +1 die against Wounded NPCs.

Adventure yields Coins; they purchase Gear.

Weapons are Melee or Ranged. Sacrifice Shields to deny amage.

Storytellers:

Enemies and Environment Elements have Tags that describe them; DM uses them to decide if a task is Easy or Hard (+/- 1 die to roll). Enemy Endurance ranges from 0 to 4. Environments have 1 to 4 Tags.

Artifacts break the rules. Go wild.

Tell a story together. Make it awesome.
