Not yet, but I'm gearing up to run a mortal game as we speak, so I'll
be sure to let you know. In theory the fixed difficulty system seems
fair to me, especially considering that you only *need* one success to
succeed on non-extended actions. Any additional successes are just
gravy (until you hit 5 and get an exceptional success.)
I also like the new combat system. Not only the whole one die roll
per attack thing, but I think adding the defense trait also makes the
combat more even. You know, less "okay I hit you, are you down? Okay
you hit me, am I down?" I guess I'm not explaining that very well, it
just felt in the old system like everyone stood around trading blows
until someone failed to soak enough damage.
