I have a question about the Confrontation Spotlight. In the description you wrote that it is an opposed test. Does this mean that the player rolls either FA or NFA and the GM his AA and the highest succes wins?[...]

Fear and Moral by Fatespinner
I read Shotgun Diaries and like the fear mechanism in it. Now 3:16 is no horror game, but I think that it would be nice to include a fear factor or moral. My idea to implement it is the following. There are NFA fear checks (at the start of a combat or when they take [...][...]

Specialists? Or Giving Troopers some flavor
So I just got 3:16 and have run a few sessions of it, a 3 PC, as 5 PC and a 7 PC session. I absolutely love the game and think it will probably be the only game I ever GM ever again(I normally don’t enjoy GMing) Since I seem to be doing larger sessions [...][...]

Can 3:16 be turned into a fun fantasy game? There is already a SF variant, so I will focus on a variant for the Swords & Sorcery genre. Here are my thoughts so far:[...]

Sigmar, in his divine all-seeing wisdom, knows that there are many unseen and supernatural evils and horrors which beset mankind, and so channels His own divine power through his chosen priests. The soldiers of the Empire, trusting in thei[...]
Adding Extra Stat(s) by Skinner’s Pigeon
Alternate title: Forgive Me, Gregor, for I have Sinned. Okay, so I love 3:16. I think it’s the bee’s knees, elbows, and spleen. But my players just aren’t getting into it with the same gusto. Fortunately, one of my players is also my wife, so I have plenty of opportunity to grill h[...]

Flashbacks Expanded
When a flashback is used, it is gone – it can never be used again. It would be nice to be able to call on an already defined flashback for a benefit, but without upsetting the game’s balance too much.[...]

Levelling
In the official rules, characters level up at a breakneck pace in small groups, but slower in large groups. Since my group won’t always have the same number of players, this may give regularly attending players too much of an advantage (they already get an advantage from their presence). So I [...]
