System Overview
Element Zero is a lightweight RPG ruleset for the Mass Effect universe. The following is some quick-and-dirty and probably non-systemic rule components.
All resolution is done via D20 dicepools, normally ranging from 1-6 dice.
The target number is determined by taking the item/skill/power's base target number and then applying modifiers to it, positive and negative. Correctly determining the base values is important.
The effect of each sux is variable - some things may provide more of a bonus than others.
Stats/training provide base dice pools, with some equipment adding or reducing dice pools.
Kinetic barriers = additional hit point buffer and target number penalties (deflection). Loosing shields means losing the deflection bonus.
Armor = multiplies hit points, acts as damage reduction after shields are penetrated.
