Title: Probably kind of a dumb question
Post by: James Holloway on July 05, 2005, 03:45:53 AM
But when resolving a conflict, what happens when participants have an equal number of successes? I can't seem to find the reference, and it's very likely (we're only in our pilot, so pretty much everyone's rolling 2-3 dice).

In a multi-protagonist conflict, I interpret this as: both protagonists get their stake (assuming they both got more than the producer), but what if a protagonist and the producer roll the same?

Is it as simple as "resolve it however you think best -- toss a coin or something?" Or is there some mention of it in the rulebook I'm missing?

P. 46: "In the case of a tie, the producer and the player should each roll an additional die and repeat as necessary until one player has more successes."

And that's what I meant by "a dumb question!"
