Why do math? (whispers) "'cause it's fun?"

Turtlelord26 commented 5 years ago

Math Good!

To keep our rules dry, this should be here or in combat rules, but not both. I like here.

bleehu commented 5 years ago

The 00_00_character_creation doc is explicitly an optional meta-doc that quick-references how to make a character. I think it's appropriate in this rare instance to not keep the rules perfectly dry because of that doc's meta trait. Open to further push-back. I'd like to keep our rules as dry as possible.

Turtlelord26 commented 5 years ago

Is our character creation walkthrough document even something we want to classify as optional? Our character-building process is not the simplest, perhaps we should consider it as equal to a rules document?

Posit the questions: is it reasonable for a new player to make a character without access to the character creation document or an official character sheet? Or even an experienced one?

Also open to push-back

I want to be able to make quick-reference documents that copy info from one part of the rules to another, so I don't want to set the precedent that we absolutely adhere to dry rules. For another example, I present the glossary.
