CORE CONCEPTS
The Narrative
The narrative is all important. This is the fiction generated between the Player Characters (PCs) and the Game Master (GM). The PCs describe what their characters are doing, saying, sometimes even thinking. The GM describes how the world reacts to the PCs. If there’s some question about the outcome of events, the players roll dice to determine the outcome using one of their moves (see below). The GM then can respond with one of his moves based on the outcome of the die roll. Moves are both prescriptive and descriptive. If the narrative fiction would disallow a move, that move isn’t allowed. If a move creates certain narrative outcomes, those outcomes happen. Go with the flow.
Stats
Each character has 6 Stats associated with their Ego :
Cognition – Your mind’s ability to find and apply information quickly.
Intuition – Your mind’s ability to efficiently process external stimuli
Coordination – Your ego’s ability to fully integrate with your morph for fine motor skills
Somatics – Your ego’s ability to control your morph for physical optimization, strength, and hardiness
Savvy – Your personality’s ability to smoothly interact with others
Willpower – Your ego’s stability, resistance to degradation over time
Characters also have 2 Stats associated with their Background:
Rep – Your personality’s aggregate reputation among all social media
Resources – Your access to wealth in the form of credits and other physical assets
Ego stats are static, unless improved through Advancement. Background stats, however, will fluctuate permanently as you rely on your Resources or Rep to procure goods or services, and as you perform actions that increase your Resources and Rep.
Moves
Game mechanics are expressed as “Moves.” Most moves require you to “roll +(Stat)” wherein you roll 2d6 and add the appropriate stat. A 10+ is a total success, a 7-9 is a partial success, granting the GM some power to complicate matters, and a 6- is a failure, granting the GM even more power to make the narrative go in ways not altogether to your liking. The GM never rolls dice, but rather reacts entirely to your die rolls as appropriate to the fiction.
Roll Modifiers
+(n)forward = apply “n” to your next die roll.
+(n)ongoing = apply “n” to all die rolls until the situation granting the bonus goes away.
+boosted = die rolls that result in 6- are raised to 7. You cannot fail. If you are boosted from more than one source, you are now +elevated.
+elevated = die rolls that result in 6- become a 7-9. Die rolls that are 7-9 become 10+. Die rolls at 10+ become 12.
+glitched = die rolls that result in 10+ are reduced to 9. You cannot fully succeed. If you are glitched from more than one source, you are now +degraded.
+degraded = die rolls that result in a 10+ are reduced to 7-9. Die rolls that are 7-9 are reduced to 6-.
Exceptional Success
If the roll on a move is 12+, it counts as an exceptional success. The GM and the player are encouraged to come up with some manner in which the character succeeds even more stylishly or effectively than normal.
Modifier Cancellation
If your roll is modified by both a +boosted tag, and a +glitched tag, they cancel each other out and you roll normally. If your +elevated die roll is +glitched, it becomes merely +boosted.
Hold
A number of moves generate a “currency” called hold. If you roll that move and generate one or more points of hold, you can spend those points at an appropriate point later in the narrative to achieve an effect as determined by the move. The GM also collects hold over PCs whenever a PC fails a roll. This hold can be used to activate GM Moves.
Damage and Sanity
You have two condition tracks corresponding to the physical damage taken by your Morph and your long-term sanity. Each level of the condition track has a Tag associated with it.
Damage Track Sanity Track
[] +scuffed [] +odd
[] +scuffed [] +odd
[] +scuffed [] +odd
[] +stunned [] +eccentric
[] +wounded [] +dissassociated
[] Dead [] Insane
When you take physical damage, you will roll the damage move. When you suffer mental trauma from horror or an ego-hacking attempt, you will roll the trauma move. Both of these moves are Basic Moves.
Damage can be healed with medical attention. Sanity can never be healed except through Psychosurgery or taking certain Advances.
Battle
When you engage in a full-on battle (not just some random violence) the narrative becomes more formal. Each “round” of battle represents a discrete narrative segment. In each round, every player can describe a single narrative action that their character takes. This action can involve the use of one or more moves. There are special Battle Moves that become available only in Battle. Also, a number of other moves specify that they are rolled when you go into battle. These moves are rolled at the beginning of the Battle.
The GM has two special moves that he can use to simulate the escalating tension and danger of a battle. The moves are inflict incidental fire and inflict concentrated fire. The GM may use these moves at the end of any round of battle, against any PC, as appropriate according to the narrative. In general, the GM should inflict incidental fire in the first couple of rounds, and inflict concentrated fire in later rounds, but if a PC does something particularly brave or foolhardy, the GM is encouraged to unleash whatever incoming harm the PC deserves.
When the GM inflicts incidental fire, the PC rolls the damage move or trauma move (as appropriate to the nature of the fire) and is +boosted on the roll.
When the GM inflicts concentrated fire, the PC rolls the damage move or trauma move without modifier, as normal.
Note: If the GM has also spent hold, or or the PC took damage from some other source that round, it is entirely possible that a PC may have to roll a damage move more than once in a round.
BASIC MOVES
All characters have access to all Basic Moves:
Access the Mesh
You may only access the mesh if you have an ecto (personal computer) or your Morph has +mesh inserts. When you need to know something quickly, roll+Cognition. On 10+, you get the information you need in the nick of time. On 7-9, you get something related, if not entirely on point.
Aid/Hinder
When you take the time to aid or hinder another PC, they are +boosted or +glitched, your choice, but you share in any consequences of their action. Only one person may Aid/Hinder any given action.
Assess the Situation
When you cast your gaze over a charged situation or interaction roll+Intuition. On 10+, hold 2. On a 7-9, hold 1. You may spend your hold, one for one, at any point in that scene to:
Negotiate
When you have leverage over someone (something they need, want, or wish to hide) and wish to get something from them, roll+Savvy. For NPCs, on a hit, they ask for something before they do what you want, and if you promise, they’ll do it. On a 7-9, they need some concrete assurance, now.
For PCs, on a 10+, both, on a 7-9, choose 1:
If they do it, they mark experience.
If they don’t, they’re +glitched ongoing until they’re out of your presence.
Open Fire
When you attack an enemy at range, roll+Coordination. On 10+, you hit and inflict damage. On 7-9, you hit, but there is a complication (choose 1):
On a miss, you may hit something important, or an ally if firing into melee
Procure Something
When you want something and it’s not immediately obvious that you can just get it, roll+Resources or +Rep (your choice). On a 10+, you get it, no strings attached, and your resources or rep doesn’t take a hit. On a 7-9, you can either get something pretty close, with strings attached, without risk, or you can get exactly what you want, but the stat you rolled drops permanently by 1. On a miss, you get something close, with strings very much attached, and the stat you rolled drops permanently by 1.
Note: This move may be +glitched or even +degraded if you try to use the wrong stat among the wrong people, or if an item is particularly rare or expensive. You cannot roll this move with a stat that is at -2. You must wait for it to increase back to at least -1 before attempting to procure something with it.
Skirmish
When you engage in melee combat, take your enemy’s damage and roll+Somatics. On a hit, you inflict your damage. On a 10+, choose two. On a 7-9, choose one:
If you are engaging another PC in melee, they make your choices for you.
Take a Chance
When you take action despite consequences for failure, you must roll. The Stat you add depends on how you’re addressing the risk. If you’re:
On a hit you succeed and accomplish your task. On 7-9, however, the GM chooses one:
Integration, Alienation, and Continuity
When you resleeve into a new morph, it takes a while to adjust to your new physicality. Roll+Somatics. On a 10+, you integrate with aplomb. On a 7-9, you’re +glitched forward. On a failure, you’re +glitched ongoing until the GM decides you’ve sufficiently adjusted. This roll may be +boosted if your new morph is identical or nearly identical to the old one, or +glitched if the new morph is dramatically different in some way. The GM may skip the Integration roll if resleeving into an infomorph.
Once you get your new body under control, it’s time to look in the mirror and adjust to the new you mentally. Roll+Cognition. On a 10+, you adapt with little alienation. On a 7-9, you’re +glitched forward. On a failure, you’re +glitched ongoing until the GM decides you’ve sufficiently adjusted. This roll may be +boosted if your new morph is identical or nearly identical to the old one, or +glitched if the new morph is dramatically different in some way.
Finally, you must get used to any loss of continuity, or adapt to the idea that you may not be the only version of yourself out there. Roll the trauma move. This roll may be +boosted or +glitched, depending on the circumstances of your resleeving, even +degraded if the loss of time is too great. The GM may skip the continuity roll if there is no significant loss of time.
Damage Move
When you take physical damage from something, roll+Armor. On a 10+, you absorb or avoid the blow entirely. On a 7-9, the GM chooses 1:
On a miss, you suffer the full brunt of the damage.
Trauma Move
When you experience horror, a loss of continuity, or an ego-hacking attempt, roll+Willpower. On a 10+, you shake it off to no effect. On a 7-9, the GM chooses 1:
On a miss, mark 1 off the Sanity track.
BATTLE MOVES
All characters have access to all Battle Moves when “in battle.”
Defend a Secure Position
When you defend a secure position roll+Cognition. On a 10+, hold 3, on a 7-9, hold 1. As long as you defend that position, you may spend your hold, 1 for 1, to:
On a miss, your position is no longer secure – it’s now untenable, and you proceed accordingly.
Provide Covering Fire
When you provide covering fire for someone, roll+Intuition. On a hit, you keep them from coming under fire for that round of combat. On a 7-9, their position or course is untenable, and they proceed accordingly. On a miss, they suffer concentrated fire now.
Maintain an Untenable Position or Course
When you maintain an untenable course or position, roll+Somatics. On a hit you can hold it, and you’ll come under only incidental fire. On a 7-9, things are still untenable or insecure, you’re glitched until you’re safe. On a miss, you have to abandon your position now or suffer concentrated fire.
Hit the Deck
When you hit the deck to avoid enemy fire, roll+Coordination. On 10+, you are safe. On 7-9, you get to cover, but the GM chooses 1:
Note: Any hit on this move will permit a free reload of any weapon with the +reload tag.
Follow Through on Someone Else’s Move
When you follow through on someone else’s move, roll+Intuition. On a 10+, choose one of the following, as appropriate to the narrative:
On a 7-9, you create an opportunity for your ally, but they haven’t seized it or followed through on it yet. The GM will tell you what it is. On a miss, the GM chooses one of the above for an appropriate NPC instead.
GM MOVES
GM Moves
Whenever a player makes a move, the GM may make a move. Generally this will be a soft move, driving the narrative or setting things up for later.
Whenever a player makes a move and fails (rolls a 6-) the player marks experience and the GM holds 1 against that character. The GM may immediately, or at any time thereafter, spend his hold, 1 for 1, to make a move against that character from his list, even a hard move.
The GM’s moves are:
Soft Moves:
Hard Moves:
Battle Moves:

TAGS
https://eclipse-phase-apocalypse.obsidianportal.com/wikis/tags
Tags are descriptors that attach to your character for a variety of reasons. Some, like +boosted
are situational, granted temporarily due to circumstance. Some, such as +cyberbrain
describe some aspect of your morph that is intrinsic to it. Others, such as +pneumatic limbs
, are descriptive of some sort of mechanical or cybernetic enhancement. Some tags apply to equipment, such as the +reload
tag.
Whatever the source, tags work the same way. They are a mostly descriptive, narrative thing that enables your character to do things they may not be ordinarily able to do, or they create some complication for your character to overcome.
