Flowchart for Daggerheart's Core Resolution Mechanism
I’ve been interested to follow Daggerheart’s release. With the support of Critical Role and Darrington Press I think this new game will definitely be enjoying a moment in the sun. It’s also been validating to see them taking similar design directions as I’ve been taking with A Thousand Faces of Adventure.
Here’s my interpretation of their Core Resolution Mechanism for Action Rolls:
It’s simpler than Genesys:
It’s roughly comparable to FATE (I chose not to go into as much detail here as I did FATE):
It’s not as simple as my previous iteration of 1kFA:
Particularly interesting in contrast to these is how Daggerheart splits responsibility between GM and Player.
