I'm planning to try this out for a Fate conversation I'll be running with friends, where 1-1-1 and 6-6-6 (normally –4 and +4) still count as interventions.

Personally, though, my big dilemma is whether to just merge Essence and fate points into the same thing. Doing so would simplify a lot, but also raise questions about what refresh should be set at, and whether compels would completely replace Rites...
I will have to have a look at that 3d6 mapping (and not too hard to put on a character sheet).....
I was planning to merge Essence and Fate points with a Refresh of four (an probably four beginning stunts)

Rites will only 'pay out' once a day (dawn to dawn or dusk to dusk). I like Rites, they are sort of "Compel light" all ready.
