If theres a size difference between the crew and its opponent,
the larger one causes +1damage per size difference.
Strings
Strings can be used to collect a personal favour from the
subject. If it is something they can do without much trouble
they do it, theyll do it. If not, you may still push it.
If you push a String, theyll do it. But either GM may hold
one to you to spend as a hard move later on or mark one
String to them.
Any player (including GM) may spend a String they have to
your character to cash in the favour. If you do it now, remove
the string and mark +1exp. If you do it later, remove the
string. If you do not do it at all, they mark another String
to you or the GM makes a hard move.

grant +1forward to the roll. If the character(s) or the crew(s)
assisting has a relevant [tag] upgrade that die.
When a character(s) of crew(s) interferes on someones
action, they grant -1forward to the roll. If the character(s)
or the crew(s) interfering has a relevant [tag] remove an
expert die from the pool.
In either case those assisting a check are tied to the result.
Debilities
When you loose 3 or more Strain from a single source
or have already lost more than 3 Strain and suffer more,
you may choose to black out one box of Strain (it cannot
be healed anymore).
If you do ignore the the damage dealt to you and choose a
debility for your character. If you receive additional harm
after this you may mark new debilities as long as you have
one to check.
Notice that you may never choose a single debility more
than ones.
Using Tokens
In any relevant situation the player may spend a token to
influence the flow of the events in one of the following ways:
Additional Die (use before any roll)
Add an expert die to your dice pool or remove one from the
pool used against you.
Cash Them (at the end of the session)
If at the end of the session you have unspent tokens, mark
+1exp. per two unspent tokens. Having only one unspent
token at the end of the session means youll just lose it.
Gain Narrative Leeway
Add another detail to any given situation. You may declare in
reasonable limits anything that has to deal with his character.
Though the GM has the final word players should be allowed
to use this option in any way they choose.
Make it a Success
