Aether Quick Start Guide Update - Physical Resistance
The Quick Start Guide and the Core Book are virtually identical in their skill system use. They were designed to be completely compatible between the two versions of the book¸ even though the Core Book includes a few more options and information¸ such as gear and a more detailed breakdown of skill difficulties.
"One of the changes made during the final stages of editing the Core Book was the condensation of some of the skills found under the Toughness attribute. There were a lot of resistances included that didn't make a lot of sense to keep separate. They add dimension to the game and indicate the difference between certain types of physical resistances¸ but in the end they all boil down to the same thing: how much stress can your character's body take?
"That is discussed in this short update¸ as well as a new version of the character sheet. This is a must-have for all of you who have purchased the Quick Start Guide for Æther!
