Beta Update and New Character Sheets

With today's release, we fixed several content issues (thanks for everyone's feedback!) and have added a couple of character sheet resources. 

Here are the release details.

Revised Content

  • Updated the Core Mechanic to be explicit that you are rolling a d20. 
  • Added the Library of Congress number for the ORC license
  • Fixed some typos in the Yes / No table
  • Fixed a spacing issue on the bullets on page 9
  • Removed 'Contest Tie' and 'Group Contest Ties' paragraphs (these paragraphs were redundant with the rules on ties explained earlier).
  • Changed 'Modifying Rolls' section to read 'Ability Modifiers' and updated the content here to make it clear you're modifying the ability (or resistance), not the dice roll.
  • On p. 11 changed this: "There are a few ways to modify your rolls in a contest" to read as this: "A few things will potentially modify your ability (or the resistance in the case of the GM)."
  • Added some missing spaces to starship stats blocks
  • On p.9 changed the "rolling lower natural 20" (which was confusing; 'nat 20' is a D&D term) section to read as follows: "If the result is a Tie, look at the number on your dice roll compared to the opposition. Ignore any modifiers since those are applied to your ability target number, not the roll itself. The higher roll gains +1 success to break the tie. Ties don’t earn XP. Player roll is higher = Victory at a Price (1 success, but suffer a consequence) Player roll is lower = Defeat with a Boon (0 successes, opposition gains +1 success, choose either 1 benefit to self or 1 consequence to the enemy) Rolls are tied = Inconclusive Standoff (0 successes, neither side gets what they want)."
