Converted from Phorums BB System

These are a bit of a bone of contention among fans and were often chewed over on the Fading Suns mailing list (which is still going after all these years).

Having run the game extensively, I found I never really "grokked" them. I really dug the simplicity of the one die roll but it tended to give really random results that were often frustrating to the players. Many people's mileage most certainly varied, however. Were I to run it again today I'd use Adventure!-vintage Storyteller or Star Wars D20. A lot of Fading Suns people liked the Fading Suns D20 conversion but I like the Wound point/Vitality point distinction better than the D&D3 based rule set.
