IC System Core Rules

This is a core rule set for a system designed by Daniel Spinks. It includes all current up to date rules for the Initial Cost (IC) system from 22/07/2024.

The system is designed around player agency, where the players roll the dice for almost every roll. The system is heavily inspired by other systems with the purposes of realism and player/DM freedom.

The system uses Action Points to determine actions and revolves around Action Points for almost all areas. This includes for health, reacting and more.

Classes no longer exist, instead using player determined descriptions to define what characters are good at doing.

The DM should have much more control over their settings and the system should be usable in any setting. It is designed to work with any setting and any character type, only limited by imagination. The main concept of the system is to allow freedom while binding that freedom with guidelines and realism.
