<h2>OPTIONAL ADVANCEMENT RULES</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<em>[Note: The following rules are optional additions for campaign play.]</em>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>BLITZ</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Player Characters will gain additional Experience at the end of each battle in
|
|
which all enemies fled or were reduced to 0 Hit Points. The amount gained by
|
|
each character will be equal to 【5 minus the number of rounds elapsed during
|
|
the battle 】; this means that any battle concluded during the sixth round
|
|
will grant no additional Experience, while a battle that was completed during
|
|
the first round will award five XP to each participant.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
These additional Experience Points are gained by all characters who took
|
|
part in the battle (even if they surrendered or fled at a certain point).
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Combine this with Superiority Points (page 83) for a highly tactical game!
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p class="advice-block">
|
|
<strong>It's good if:</strong> You like your battles to be intensely tactical,
|
|
and you're okay with your campaign mostly revolving around combat. If you
|
|
choose this optional rule, the Game Master will have to spend some more time
|
|
making sure each encounter is challenging but also allows for clever
|
|
strategies.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>BOOSTER</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Each Player Character will automatically gain a level at the end of each
|
|
session (in addition to normal advancement).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p class="advice-block">
|
|
<strong>It's good if:</strong> Your campaign will be relatively short, if the
|
|
Players like to have plenty of new tricks every session, and if you don't mind
|
|
turning your game into a quickly escalating spiral of mayhem.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Depending on the campaign, you might want to use one or more of the optional
|
|
rules. You can also introduce new advancement rules halfway through the
|
|
campaign, or stop using them if you realize they are doing more harm than
|
|
good.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
What's important for you to understand is that the optional XP rules you apply
|
|
will inevitably shift the focus of your game: after all, people generally tend
|
|
to do what they're rewarded for.
