I love this !

I know for sure that creating your own hack, without overcomplexifying things is hard. Your artstyle and the overall layout is eye-candy.

I often find it hard to write satisfying magic rules, with randomness but without frustration. Magic dice are great, the little "die pool" is really satisfying. However a fumble on a 1/2/3 is really rare and only occurs if the character is level 3 or more right ?

The Way system is great to create organic scenarios where everyone can feel involved and a good inspiration for GM writing.

Looking forward for update, great project

Thanks a lot for your comment. I’m really glad you like it. I am sure gonna adjust some things in the project as I’m playing it, but the mission is to keep it always simple.

About the magic fumble, I might change the text because actually, any sequence of numbers will be a fumble. You can’t have a fumble with one die, but with two dice you might roll 3 and a 4, 5 and 6, 1 and 2, and so on.

Oh ok ! Thanks for the explaination on magic. Actually it does make sense that rookie magicians can't really fumble. However a "push your limits" system where you take a fatigue, and add a dice (d4 or d6?) to the magic roll could be fun and open fumbles to lvl1 magician trying to go too hard.

Good luck for the following of the project.

Good suggestion! I’ll think and test it at the table. Tell me if you had a chance to play it. Thanks a lot.
