I’m glad I rolled a 3 with the old way of allotting starting sims, because starting with 3 sims is just miserable. No one should try it. I’m giving up on Giovora and trying again.
I am going to rewrite the rules so you start with 1D6+4: One six sided die plus four. That way the values will be between 5 and 10, which should be tenable.
