Differences between HQ1 and HQ:G

Since some of y’all already know HQ:G, this page will summarize the differences between those rules and HQ1.

• Hero Points work the same when it comes to using them to bump up rolls, but getting them and spending them on improvements are somewhat different. See the rules summary section.
• Magic is fairly different but we’re not using it so don’t worry about it.
• Keywords work differently and can never be increased. See the character creation doc.
• Consequences of defeat apply differently sized penalties.
• The rules for withdrawing from an extended contest are pretty different from the Questworlds SRD ones we’ve been using.
• Group simple contests work completely differently.
• You can augment with multiple abilities at a time. We will also use both automatic and rolled augments. Check the augment rules for details.
• The rules for community support are more involved, though honestly you can probably wait until they actually come into play to worry about them.
