		<description>Fudge a lumber yard not a pre-fab house, so it has to cover a lot of ground just for basics. 

Over the Fudge may be the best way to get a feel for the game
http://www.fudgerpg.info/guide/Guide/OverTheFudge.html

Fudge on the Fly is another way to ease into Fudge:
http://www.fudgefactor.org/2004/05/05/fudge_on_the_fly.html

For all the Fudge dice haters out there, here&#039;s a 2D6 method.

Dice: If you don&#039;t have Fudge Dice, you can instead use 2d6, each of them a different color, such as white die (positive) and a red die (negative). One die represents pluses, the other minuses. Subtract the positive die from the negative die to get a result. For example, if the positive die reads 4 and the negative die reads 3, the result is +1. If the positive die reads 2 and the negative die reads 6, the result is -4. If both dice show the same number, the result is 0.

This does allow +5 and -5 results, which 4dF does not, and it has more variation in results (although a sharper curve) as you are rolling only 2 dice instead of 4, but it may be faster and easier to use than trying to figure out the result of 4d6 that are not marked as Fudge dice.

You can treat + or - 5 as a critical roll or just re-roll.</description>

		<description>The updated FATE system uses d6 odds and evens instead of fudge dice.

Just a heads up.

		<description>Most pick-up games are quite big since they include everything you need to start playing. I haven&#039;t been able to check out SotC yet, I&#039;ve only read the SotC SRD which is definitively shorter.</description>

		<description>Well, at least 84 pages doesn&#039;t look as bad as the Spirit of the Century book. Some have called that a pick-up game but the more than 400 pages have prevented me from picking it up ever since I put it on my book shelf. :(
