I like the system, but it will just take some time to for me to adjust to it. It's like Into the Odd/Cairn with more stuff to play with. So far I like usage die mechanic and the doom die mechanic, it makes things exciting.

Glad you are enjoying it, @microtheMacroBear :)

I feel that, even when I've used a system often before, I've always forgotten how it works the next time I sit down to play it 😬

And I agree, I really like the Doom and Usage mechanics, and I find the various feats and so on are nicely flavoured for the world.

And I enjoy the relative simplicity and speed of combat. I'm interested to try some of the other Black Hack hacks out there to see how similar/differnt they are in that (I have The Mecha Hack somewhere that's another Black Hack hack...)

There are so many! I did a search on itch.io for Black Hack hacks

Hi! @Beardhare

Let me know if it is ok to try to pre-empt stat checks. I have found that it helps keep the other games that I'm in moving along and the roll is ignored if not needed.

If this doesn't work for you, I will stop :)

Yes @microTheMacroBear! Please go for it! If I disagree I'll ask you to do something different :)

Note that I'm playing such that a failed test/roll will always bring a penalty, a cost, a complication. That'd a feature I like of eg PbtA systems - so it's not a constant perception check trap check thing going on. So I would only ask for rolls if what you are doing is risky for some reason.

Ok sounds good!
