  • The Quickstart Guide has been split into a Quickstart Rules module (for sharing with players) and Campaign module (for the GM).
  • Page number references have been replaced with links.
  • The Quickstart Rules module contains Chapter 1 and Chapter 3 of the Quickstart Guide for sharing with players.
  • The Quickstart Campaign module contains Chapter 2 ("The Celestial Algorithm" campaign) for the GM.
  • Pregenerated characters are also included as Major NPCs in the Quickstart Rules module. NPC stress has been set to half the player character value to align with 2E Supporting Character rules.
