Aspects per Exchange/Scene?

[blues.soldier]

I own every major publishing of a FATE rules system, so maybe I'm imagining this from another version. Still, the question remains.

Assuming the character has enough Fate points, is there a limit on how many aspects they can pile on during a single exchange? What about a scene? I recall somewhere that an Aspect was only invoke-able once per scene. Is this accurate? Can you supply the reference?

I'm pretty sure you can invoke as many different aspects per exchange as you want, as long as the aspects you are invoking fit with what you are doing.  The limitation you might be remembering is that you can only spend one fate point per exchange when you aren't justifying it with an aspect (and this use only gives a +1, instead of +2) (Your Story, page 19).  I don't ever recall seeing any rule about a per scene limitation (some stunts have these, though).

Yep, the rule is that any given Aspect can be used once per exchange. No limits on how often it can be used per scene.

You can invoke an Aspect once per exchange.

You may invoke as many applicable Aspects per exchange as you wish and can pay for.

You may invoke an applicable Aspect as many times during a scene as you wish and can pay for.

Diaspora has a rule called Scope. Some example Scopes are personal, equipment, scene, etc. You may only invoke a single Aspect per Scope per exchange, so it doesn't matter if your character is "strong as an ox" and "has arms like phone poles" because those are both a personal Scope and so only one can be applied to the same exchange.

Of course, Scopes don't apply to Dresden.

Yes-- I think Scope is what I was recalling. Thanks!
