these are things that are not included in the core commons version because they're homebrew, because they are a lot of writing/creativity that I don't feel comfortable stealing/distributing, or so on. most of Old Gus's and the community's content is removed in order to have a near-CSRD state what remains is the rules clarifications, errata, splicing together some information from secondary sources (like the Starter Set or from game authors on Twitter), and organizational assists things removed includes ideas that I like, but either plan to write my own way in the future, or again I just don't feel comfortable copying verbatim, especially if, for instance, I have my own process and don't need to advocate for a different one stuff that's likely to get folded into my core is arbitrarily numbered 300s instead of 000s

-Effects on Gameplay

|
|
-Using this rule, some elements of gameplay will feel different:
|
|
-
|
|
-- **Succeeding Tasks:** PCs will suceed at tasks at about the same rate, but most difficulty 1 tasks become
|
|
- [routine](#routine-actions)---unless the PC is hindered, for example, due to an [inability](#key-concepts) or some
|
|
- other circumstance.
|
|
-
|
|
-- **Special Rolls:** [Special rolls](#rules-special-rolls) other than major effects are mostly eliminated, but major
|
|
- effects occur more frequently.
|
|
-
|
|
-- **GM Intrusions:** The [GM intrusion](#gm-intrusion) rate starts higher, and effects that increase it---for example,
|
|
- [Horror Mode](#horror-rules-horror-mode)---have considerably more dramatic effects.
|
|
-
|
|
-- **Abilities and Effects:** The GM might need to make a few other alterations for certain effects that still assume
|
|
- task resolution is handled by rolling a d20, for example, those granted by the [Increased
|
|
- Effects](#ability-increased-effects){.og-ability} ability (for example, allowing a [minor
|
|
- effect](#rules-special-rolls) on a roll of 5 on the fate die).
|
|
-
|
|
-- **Other Sizes of Fate Die:** Alternatively, the GM can assign the fate die to a different die instead, for example,
|
|
- the fate die could be set to a d10, triggering a GM intrusion on a 1, a minor effect on a 9, and a major effect on
|
|
- a 10. The fate die could even be a d20, and trigger [special rolls](#rules-special-rolls) normally.
