Critical Hits for the d20 Dice Pool

Critical hits in SC5e functioned by taking the maximum damage that an attack could inflict and adding normal rolled damage to the total.

In SC RPG, this will return to the original 5e mechanic of rolling double the number of damage dice.

The reason for this, is that the d20 dice pool system makes rolling a natural 20 significantly more likely. Thus, 'ordinary' critical hits can afford to be less powerful and SC5e's crit mechanic will be reserved for when two natural 20s are rolled.

Action Economy Overhaul

The action economy is to be updated from the action/bonus action/move model, to the three action model from Pf2e.
