Game Management The Coriolis rules

[Dom]

Tonight has reminded me how poorly the Coriolis rules are structured as a reference in play. You can see how much better Fria Ligan has got with Things from the Flood, Forbidden Lands and Alien's Quickstart rules.

I remember it being hard work at Furnace when I ran it. You can't chase references down quickly.

Worst part is the number of Darkness Points that start play is never properly mentioned in the Coriolis core book and only explicitly clarified in The Emissary Lost book (1 DP for GM per Player).

Is there a ready reckoner or cheat sheet?

Yes, the narrative flow is against us. Joys.
It's good to embrace adversity and engage with failure.

The lethality of Year Zero Engine games is overrated. I am yet to witness a TPK in any of them, even the dreaded Alien RPG. Your characters are safe, Guvnor.

I don't mind if it does.
