It'd be interesting for us to compare notes about the differences in play results...
Looking at the rules, it looks like I'm not actually tinkering the rules very much, since there's already postive bonuses added for creative or surprise tactics(Surprise from behind gives a whopping +20!).
Second, while I'm aware that the Sorcerer rule doesn't apply to anything and everything, in this case, HQ and Sorcerer share the concept that success or failure is a function of the ratio between competeing scores. While it may not map 1 to 1, it certainly has many similar applications.
Finally, I'm well aware that Narrativism does not equal "cool descriptions", this rule isn't designed with Narrativism in mind, but rather encouraging more interesting contests.
