So you don't have one?

So there is an old scenario adapted to HQ2 format in HiG? That could be useful for us to look at.

So scenes, at least, are laid out as possible tasks with "what you get if you roll what". Not too dissimilar from the previous ideas.

I think (I may be out of line here) what those of us asking to see this were hoping for was more of how the use of the sliding scale and Pass/Fail and whatever mysterious things those of us who are unlikely to ever see the book keep hearing about are used to scenario construct.
