 The Group Worksheet is a meta-game tool to represent the state of the party and can be thought of as a character sheet for the party. ​ It is meant to be scaling depending on the details of the campaign being run but should always focus on the organizational unit that the characters are most involved with.  It can represent just the players, a farm, an organized group, or even something as big as a town if your player characters are town officials. ​       The Group Worksheet is a meta-game tool to represent the state of the party and can be thought of as a character sheet for the party. ​ It is meant to be scaling depending on the details of the campaign being run but should always focus on the organizational unit that the characters are most involved with.  It can represent just the players, a farm, an organized group, or even something as big as a town if your player characters are town officials. ​

 +After every arc the Group Worksheet the group worksheet can be impacted by stressor and wealth phases. ​ This represents either the impact of that arc on the group or additional strains that have occurred. ​     ​
 +
 === Stressor === === Stressor ===
 +
 +To start the stressor phase the GM will draw one card.  This will be from the remainder of the deck including aces, face cards and jokers. ​ This represents a stress on the group. ​ The suit determines what aspect of the group is being stressed. ​ A Spade will stress Opportunity,​ Club will stress people, Diamond will stress resources, and a Heart would stress image. ​ The GM determines the nature of this stress and describes it to the party.  ​
 +
 +The party will then choose how they are going to address this stress. ​ If they are confident in the trait they could decide to just go strait to the roll off.  If however they are not confident in the results they can choose to use another trait to assist. ​ The players must describe how that trait is being used to assist. ​ Any additional trait that is brought in will automatically be lowered by a value of 2 regardless of whether the defense is successful or not.    ​
 +
 +Once the GM has defined the stress and the players have defined their defense it is time to roll 2d6 modified by the card values to determine the results. ​ If the stressor roll is larger than the defender the card value of the defender is lowered by the difference. ​ A trait cannot be lowered below one.  ​
 +
 +
 === Wealth Phase === === Wealth Phase ===
  
 +After the stressor is resolved the wealth phase begins. ​ To start the wealth phase add the value of the groups highest card to their lowest card.  This is how many coins the group gets.  This is a meta currency that can be used in a variety of ways.  ​
  
 +Examples:
 +  * increase card value. Still limited to 1-10.
 +  * Buy personal or group equipment
 +  * Upgrades outside of the card game such as adding armor to a vehicle
 +  * Buy off persistent problems
 +  * Buy off injuries
 +  * Buy a leader or party retainer. ​ That person is represented by a face card placed on the suit card of the trait it is modifying.
