Reply: General Role-Playing:: Re: QOTD OCT 31: What mechanic from one RPG has permanently changed how you run or play other games?
Posted: Sat, 31 Oct 23:02:09
I'm with you, though I prefer the 7th-edition Call of Cthulhu version (bonus dice and penalty dice) which doesn't cap at a single level like D&D Advantage/Disadvantage does. I'd replace most bonuses and penalties in other modern percentile systems, like RuneQuest: Roleplaying in Glorantha and Delta Green: The Role-Playing Game, with bonus and penalty dice; faster, easier, more fun.

I learned about the advantage/disadvantage, boon/bane mechanic from D&D 5e though I am not sure which system created it. I find this mechanic to be such a simple, elegant way to tilt probabilities and add a bit granularity to story forks. This is easy to throw in to other systems as desired.
