I am working on a supers engine using Fudge and I'd like to tie Skills more closely to Attributes. I was thinking of having skills to default to their related...
... My first question to you would be "Why?" Is there some mechanical reason why you feel you need to tie skills to attributes. Further answers would roll out...
... I guess philosophically, I think someone with Great Agility would have a natural affinity for the Atheletics skill. In my mind, they shouldn't start as a...
... Then why not use a simpler fix of having Skills default to their appropriate Attribute rather than having a fixed default? I personally wouldn't go with...
... they ... personally ... I am going with a short, broad skill list. Your idea is an interesting one. I don't see the math of -2 default as terribly onerous,...
... I am a strong proponent of the "don't think too much" school of design. No point in making things more complex than they need to be. Chris Helton Seraphim...
... You could always go with the school of thought with the 4C/FASERIP system - You roll everything off of Attributes and then add a bonus (+1 or +2 at the ...
... Have you ever looked at the Warhammer FRP? The way WHRPG works is that you have a set of attriburtes with linked skills. If you buy a skill you can roll...

Man, you guys are coming up with some dynamite feedback! Thanks! I love power dice. What a cool idea! Right now I am inclined to go with Chris' idea about...

Hi Jonathan, Thanks for writing back..:) Lightspeed is going to form a very important, central part of our Universe Project (which is beginning to take good...
... Personally speaking, William, the fact that Lightspeed used Fuzion was a major factor in what kept me from buying the game in the first place. Fuzion is...
As much as I love Fudge it doesn't I think we all can agree that it does not have the commercial marketability that Fate currently has. With SotC, Starblazers,...

I've got Lightspeed, along with Thousand Suns and a few other SF games. I think a Lightspeed with Fudge and Fate rules would be great. Right now I use the...
Just to add a counterpoint to this: There are good reasons for /not/ tying attributes to skills. Steffan talks about this in his "Recent Thoughts on Fudge"...
Does it make sense to adjust the value of trait trade-offs when you're dealing with a smaller number of broad skills? So, instead of an advantage being worth 6...
