Game Code/Resolution System

Work in Progress: This file is a work in progress. Expect things to change often.

Resolution System

Elder Tale Online uses a Card-Based resolution system. This is largely used for combat encounters, but also enables larger-scale projects, such as building towns.

Each character has 2 Classes (A Primary and Secondary one) which combine into a Title - as well as a non-combat Profession.

Each Class provides Concepts, an abstract idea of the capability of a character to get things done. Typical cards will often require a certain Concept to be available on a class or character.

Classes

There are 12 classes in total:
