	Rolls are made by rolling d10 die pools of ability+skill, similar to [[World of Darkness\|WoD]] games. However, instead of counting ~~successes~~ the player counts the number of matching sets; for example, rolling 7 dice and scoring 1, 3, 5, 5, 5, 8, 8 would be a result of two sets, 3x5 and 2x8. Higher numbers are more effective in some ways, while broader sets (sets with more dice in them) are more effective in others.

	Another item of note is the Passions optional rule. Each character can have a Mission ("More than anything else, I want to..."), a Duty ("I am obligated to..."), and a Craving ("I can't help myself to..."). When the character is doing something that serves these ends he gains +1 die to the roll for each that applies; if he tries to do something that harms these ends he takes a -1 die penalty to the roll. Passions can conflict, allowing these bonuses and penalties to offset.		Another item of note is the Passions optional rule.

	The principle feature of Reign is the Company system, which allows players to work for or take command of large or small organisations and pit them against one another. These organizations can be as small as the crew of a single shipping vessel, to as large as a federation of kingdoms. Companies get character sheets of their own, and make skill rolls once a month or so as the agents of the company attempt extraordinary actions. The actions of PCs can affect these rolls, and PC in the group can donate their own experience points to improve the company.

	This also opens the way for a certain amount of ad-libbing by the players. For example, if the PCs have decided they want to make a raid on a neighbouring country and reduce their Treasure value by one, the player could make up an explanation for how they intend to do this ("The museum in Takesh on the southern border is said to contain the golden relics of A'kun. We can be there in three days' ride.") The GM can then go and plan out the raid on the museum, with both GM and players understanding what the precise mechanical results will be if they succeed.
