* Do players ever “roll for initiative” like in other games? If not,
do all actions happen at the same time or can you kill off an enemy before
he gets to attack because your basic speed let you go first?
Just as an aside. I saw (forgot where) and have run several games in
which players (and enemies) get to roll a d6 and add their Basic Speed
to determine an Initiative Roll. It allowed a bit of randomness and "The
Rogue always goes first" Syndrome. Mind you all the rules for surprise
mentioned earlier are still relevant.
Welcome to the beauty of this game system. It's not just "if you don't
like a rule, don't use it/just change it." The game system -is- flexible
enough to readily allow such revision.
