''Albedo'' is a role-playing game based on Steve Gallacci's "Erma Felna: EDF" and "Birthright" storylines, from the funny animal comic anthologies ''Albedo Anthropomorphics'' and ''Critters''. ==Play style and mechanics== Albedo: Platinum Catalyst is characterized by the notable player-controlled troupe of characters, the main character and four supporting retinue. The main character is more fleshed out than his supporting characters which typically have 3 stats: Species, morale, job description, along with a weapon of some sort. Secondary characters tend to get killed off rather quickly, but if they manage to survive enough missions, they get a Morale boost. Your typical green soldier has 1 morale point if they Trust their commanding officer—unless the Storyteller says otherwise, this is true. Loyalty, earned completing three missions with the main character, allows 3 morale points. Morale is a character's ability to keep cool, every time he's shot at or an explosion goes off nearby, supporting characters lose one point of morale. Main characters have a different stat that works the same way, but is also used for other things: Drive. In Albedo, higher skill gets you a larger sided die. Skill rank 1 gives you the smallest: 1d4, 2 points gives you 1d6 all the way up to rank 5 giving you 1d12. That's not all though, you can decide to take a test in one of several manners: Basic, Pushing, Risking, Breezing, and Rote. Rote is the "take 10" of Albedo, you get your skill ranks + 1. This is business as usual. Basic is for those things that you fail sometimes, but need higher than a 2 on the die. Pushing is doing things better. The unusual circumstances where you need to succeed. You grab twice as many dice as you normally would and roll them and take the better (Pushing is the one of two ways to Overwhelmingly Succeed: simply, both dice meet or beat the target) Risking is for those times when you need to reach beyond your normal capacity because regular dice aren't enough and only necessary if you have 4 ranks or fewer. Simply grab the next size die and take your chances. Breezing is the last method, where the character is overqualified for the job at hand and wants to outperform. This is similar to Pushing, only you take the sized die of half your skill ranks and roll twice as many (the second way to overwhelmingly succeed, and the reason why you buy over 5 ranks in a skill). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Albedo (role-playing game)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
