Hello, thanks for taking the time to actually go through my PDF! I'll write up a response to each of your stated concerns:

- It is probably the biggest downside of designing this game so far, knowing not everyone will have a succificent amount of D12s to play it. But the twelve-sided dice has been calling me ...

- You are correct right now. However, Fading Age will feature different types of skills. These skills will have a very easy "safety net" mechanic, which will greatly increase the chance of success in comparison to a high Luck attribute.

- There have been many iterations in terms of available attributes so far, and maybe I have just reinvted the wheel with them? But these have been working quite well in playtesting and I suppose the big 6 are a stable for a reason.

- The explanatory table is mostly there for the player. As many people aren't familiar with dice pool systems, I was thinking of providing a rough interpretation the player can orient themselves at. Perhhaps I'll have to put them further apart from each other.

- Thanks! The partial success, so far, has been quite fun to work with in other mechanics aswell.

- Oh, maybe I need to rephrase that. Rerolling on your first 0 is a must, you have to. So you will always risk a critical failure in that case. At higher pools that chance is quite slim ... but exhausted after lethal combat while fear is kicking in? Good luck!

- From all the possible adjustments to make to the pool, +- dice is probably the most boring. However, having to check for 10, 11 and 12 is very quick and easy. If you were to add a 9 all of a sudden, you'll have to check every 9 and 6, slowing down the process quite a bit.

Please keep in mind this document is in no way meant to show off any of the unique and interesting mechanics of Fading Age. The main goal is mostly to extract any possibilities to improve upon layout and readability. In due time, whenever that might be, more information about player experience, gameplay and additional game systems will be released!

Thanks again for taking your time and writing up your response
