--Dieter the Bold 15:40, 11 May 2016 (MST) I like the way this chapter's taken shape. Only a few notes:
Contested Checks and Tasks: The example has a gender mismatch. "Allison gets to Denoba just in time. Now she has to convince a crowd of rowdy locals not to bust through him and the few IPA deputies that have stayed on duty in the face of such overwhelming odds."
Using Action Cards: I would take an opportunity here to wax a little more poetic about the advantages of the cards. Explain that instead of countless tables, or frequent maths, all you need are the cards. Yes, they may appear intimidating at first, but take a breath and follow the guide below, and you'll soon be able to interpret multiple results of an action at a glance!
