Yeah really original name right? Anyways going to run a Fallout RTD with an actual plot, a 1d10 will be used for most of the rolls.
S.P.E.C.I.A.L. System
There are seven statistics that form the S.P.E.C.I.A.L system they are,
Strength- A measure of your characters raw physical strength. This statistic is
used for Carry Weight, Melee Damage, and Hit Points. Rolls against strength are
used when the character tries to do something that requires sheer muscle power.
Perception- How well you use your five senses, and also pertains to a
"sixth sense". This statistic is used for combat range, and several skills such
as Lockpick, Traps, First Aid, and Doctor. Rolls Against Perception are used when
there is something that the character may notice that others would not.
Endurance- The body's overall constitution and overall health. This statistic
is used for Hit Points, Poison Resistance, Radiation Resistance, Healing Rate,
and Outdoorsman. Rolls against Endurance are made when a character is trying to
hang onto a rope or something that involves resisting physical or mental damage.
Charisma- Charisma is how physically attractive your character is, and how
adept they are at knowing exactely what to say and do in social situations.
This statistic is used for the Barter and Speech skill. Rolls against charisma
are made when someone is trying to do something like talk their way past a guard
or convince someone something.
Intelligence- Intelligence is a character's higher reasoning power. This
statistic determines the number of skill points your character gains each level.
Rolls against Intelligence are made when characters are attempting to do something
like guessing a password or dtermining the sequence of electric charges running
through the pattern on the floor.
Agility- Agility measures the speed of a characters reactions. This statistic
is the basis for Armor Class and Action Point statistics. Rolls against agility are made when your character does something like
attempting to dodge a poison dart trap or attempting to jump out of the way
of a bullet.
Luck- Perhaps the most ambiguous statistic, Luck is everything and nothing.
Luck directly affects the Critical Chance and the Gambling skill. Luck rolls
are made at the GM's discretion.
Secondary Statistics
Hit Points- Perhaps the most important statistic, since Hit Points determine
wether your character is alive or dead. The base number of hit points is
15 + (STR + (2 X EN)). In addition a character gains more maximum hit
points for ever level equal to 3 + 1/2 EN, rounded down.
Armor Class- Maybe the second most important statistic in the game, Armor
Class reduces the amount of damage your character takes from things that
seek harm to them. Armor class is measured as a percentage.
Your character's base Armor Class is equal to their Agility.
In addition, any armor they are wearing can make his/her armor
class even higher. For instance, if your character's agility is 6, and
they don a leather jacket with an armor class of 5, his/her AC is now
11(%). Armor class effects the chance to hit, so if an enemy attempts to attack
then there is an 11% chance that attack won't go through the armor.
Carry Weight- How much equipment your character on his/her back. Every item
in the game weighs something. Carry Weight is 25 lbs + 25 X STR.
Damage Resistance- Damage resistance is determined entirely by armor.
All characters start with their damage resistance at 0%. Depending on the
armor they have it will reduce the total damage you recieve when you get
attacked.
Damage Threshold- Damage threshold represents the actual amount of
damage that a piece of armor can stop. A character does not have any
actual Damage Thresold until he or she is wearing armor of some kind.
Healing Rate- Life posses the remarkable ability to heal itself naturally.
Your characters healing rate is the number of hit points they heal naturally
in a day of activity. The table below determines healing rate, based on
endurance.

6-8 2

Combat
So you pissed off that guard at the bar? Or maybe your group got attacked by
raiders. Either way your going to need to learn the basics of combat.
When attacking an enemy 1d10 will be rolled. Depending on what skill you are
using you will roll with that number. So for example your Small Guns skill
is at 5, that means you must roll below 5 to hit the enemy. The weapons damage
is then dealt to the enemy if it succeeds.
Vehicle Combat
When fighting in a high speed car chase, there are going to be different rules. First of all
the Driver cannot shoot while in the vehicle since they are a bit busy driving. Passengers
can still shoot but with a -1 to hit since they are in a moving vehicle. The Driving can
also attempt to nudge a car in pursuit by rolling against his Pilot skill.

you recover in half the time from their ill effects.

chance to be addicted is only half the normal amount.
Perks
Since the list of perks is big, every time you level up a certain amount of times you
will be given a list of the perks you can choose.
Weapons and Armor Condition
Weapon Condition
When a weapon is used for an attack but it fails, or when
the player does something inordinately stupid like using
your rifle as a crowbar, will cause damage to your weapon.
One your weapon reaches a certain amount of damage, it will
break or jam. The player will then have to repair it or throw it
away.
Armor Condition
Every time an enemy makes a succesful attack against you, your
armor takes damage. Once it reaches a certain amount of
damage it will absorb less damage.
Critical Failures
It is possible to screw up an attack so badly that
something bad happens to the attacker. This is called a critical failure
and can be slightly comedic, in a wierd sort of way. The chance for Critical failure to happen
is always 3%. Every time you fail an attack 1d100 is rolled, on 97-100 it is a critical failure.
Then I roll the following table.
1. Ammo Problems- The Magazine was damaged or the ammo
was bad. The gun does not fire and the magazine must be discarded.
2. Weapon Jammed- The weapon will take 1 turn to unjam,
and the ammo inside must be discarded.
3. Loss of AP- The attacker looses all remaining AP
for that round.
4. Dropped Weapon- Something slipped, and the weapon flew out
of your hands and hit the ground.
5. Weapon Explodes- Something nasty that happens only with
explosive or energy weapons. Deals 3d10+7 damage to anyone
nearby the weapon.
6. Hit Something Else- Instead of hitting your target, you hit
another target close to the origional one.
7. Damage Self- You cut yourself on your knife, or shot yourself
in the foot. Half the weapons normal damage is dealt to
you instead.
8. Slip and Fall- All remaining AP are gone, and the next
round you must get up. While down you loose all armor class from
agility.
9. Weapon Breaks- The weapon breaks beyond repair.
10. Anvil- A miniature anvil falls out of the sky and strikes you
on the head for 1d10 points of damage. No chance to dodge,
and DT and DR are disregarded for this attack.
Chems, Addiction, and Withdrawal
Drug and chem addiction still exists in the post-nuclear world. Most drugs and chemicals
have an addiction rate of some kind. When the drug is taken the character rolls the
drugs addiction rate. If the roll "succeeds", the character has developed a chemical
dependency for the drug.
Chemical Dependencies are fine (in most cases) so long as the character keeps getting
more of the drug. The problem is that many drugs are VERY expensive, and the distributors
of drugs offer a few doses at a low price to get a person hooked, and then begin to jack
that price up.
When a character can no longer get a supply of drugs, they begin to go into withdrawal.
Generally, after 24 hours, a character loses one point of Perception and one point of
Agility. After another 24 hours, they lose two points of Perception and
Agility (for a total of three points and lose one point of Strength and
Endurance. After another 24 hours the character must make an endurance check
to see if they kick the addiction, if they do then all points are restored
except for Endurance. Which gets a permanent -1, so ask yourself before
taking a drug, is it really worth it?
Karma
When a character does a certain action they gain or lose karma. Karma is
an overall summary of how your character acts. If your character kills
an innocent person they lose 10 karma, but if they help a person in
trouble they gain 10 karma. If your character gets a certain amount of karma
they may gain a certain perk. People will also view you differently depending
on your karma.
Leveling
Once you level up, which will be told by me. You gain HP equal to 3 + 1/2
EN (Rounded down). You will also gain Skill Points equal to 5 + (2 X IN).
