One thing though, shouldn't the roadsign-shield actually be ac 8, as unarmored players start at ac 9? or is it just a fashion-statement :)<br /><br />Btw, the other tables work great as well, a shame we have no plantmutes yet in the group.<br /><br />/BurtbananaBillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16868587100130825951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-15246429275439276832009-07-01T09:17:48.416-05:002009-07-01T09:17:48.416-05:00"It'd be cool to have damages as well.&qu..."It'd be cool to have damages as well."<br /><br />I was planning on using d6 for everything but the guns.Jeff Rientshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493878980535235896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-61427833771286531602009-07-01T08:17:30.472-05:002009-07-01T08:17:30.472-05:00A fantasy/medieval version of this would be intere...A fantasy/medieval version of this would be interesting - your grandfather's old sword that might break, a pitchfork, an actual helmet from the wars that's a bit big and hard to see out of...Age of Fablehttp://www.ageoffable.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-42283405811860253342009-07-01T08:08:02.299-05:002009-07-01T08:08:02.299-05:00It'd be cool to have damages as well.It'd be cool to have damages as well.Age of Fablehttp://www.ageoffable.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-30164520660772369152009-07-01T04:55:39.875-05:002009-07-01T04:55:39.875-05:00Good catch, Art!Good catch, Art!Jeff Rientshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493878980535235896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-21462502738390161832009-06-30T17:45:04.457-05:002009-06-30T17:45:04.457-05:00Very cool!

Maybe give people 2d12 shots worth on the black powder guns?<br /><br />Also, it would be sweet to have a "two items, on d6" such that the weaker choices are on the lower end of the chart. Gives an option for trading among a starting party to make up for not getting a needed piece of equipment. <br /><br />Some suggetions: <br /><br />Stewpot Helmet (2 in 6 nonstick)<br />Hoe Polearm<br />Partial Sports Armor (4 in 6 with jersey)<br />-Baseball Bat (2 in 6 Cricket Bat)-<br /><br />Good stuff man.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-24570517528774741822009-06-30T14:38:39.367-05:002009-06-30T14:38:39.367-05:00Its amazing how much glee reading that gave me.

I used a roll your equipment section for a homebrew post-apocalypse game years back. <br />Had weapons and such of course but also included footgear, clothing, hats and containers.<br /><br />It really helps with the scraping things together scavenging wanderer set-up that is popular with post-apocalypse fiction. It also gets folks to play with and develop things they might never bother with otherwise.JDJarvishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07691101939920824546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-90451316463026092152009-06-30T12:40:32.581-05:002009-06-30T12:40:32.581-05:00What, no soup pot helmet?

I have been thinking a lot about post-apocalyptic settings (after reading "The Road"), and thought a good way to equip starting characters would be completely random rolls on a few tables. Of course I am leaning more towards a near future setting (with most modern tools and weapons still available), such as a zombie apocalypse or rise of the machines. I think my RESISTANCE setting will be my next project.Mike D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13199531732115178349noreply@blogger.com
