Rules: Detail view  Back to full view A set of rulebooks and activities in detail.

Rules added to the sequence of play

These rulebooks are the best places to put rules timed to happen at the start, at the end, or once each turn. (Each is run through at a carefully chosen moment in the relevant top-level rulebook.) It is also possible to have rules take effect at specific times of day or when certain events happen. Those belong to no rulebook, but are indexed here for convenience. Rules taking place when scenes begin and end can be found in the Scenes index.
