and resisting (radiation, poison, etc.).
Mental: To do with problem solving, logic, perception, science
and psionic.

Defence is a Target Number when dealing with attack. To
calculate your defence, add 7 to your Physical ability. Defence
may only be upgraded by using armour or other means.

You get 1 to 3 XP at the end of a scenario/quest, on an average
everyone should get 2 XP at the end of a scenario or quest. You
then may spend:
1. 1 XP to gain 1 HP
2. 5 XP to add 1 to an ability of your choice

When in doubt, roll 2d6 roll plus appropriate ability trying to get
the Target Number (TN) or more to succeed. Refer to difficulty
table below:
Difficulty TN
Routine 5
Easy 7
Normal 9
Hard 11
Super Hard 13

You get a FUMBLE on a natural roll of 2 and a CRITICAL SUCCESS
on a natural roll of 12. A fumble is bad and a critical success is
good. In combat you automatically miss on a fumble and
automatically hit on a critical dealing a double damage.
Action points provide characters with the means to affect game
play in significant ways. A character always starts with 3 Action
Points (AP) and he always replenishes them at the beginning of
every adventure. A character can spend 1 AP to do one of these
things:
Allow a character to get extra action.
Grant an extra die to a roll. Roll extra die and pick the best
two. This cannot be used for damage roll.
Turn a failure into a success.
Turn a success into a critical success.
Stop a character from dying. If a hit kills your character, he
is not dead but unconscious with 1 HP left.

Movement is abstract for fast combat although combatants are
not static they keep on moving. To simulate movement,
everyone starts in free position. From there, you may either
move into melee range and engage a target or disengage from a
target or move into cover. When you engaged to a target you
may only use melee attack. To disengage a target you must
make a Physical roll against TN of 9, if successful you move into
free position. You may use range attack to attack a free
positioned target only. You may fire an engaged target at a -4
penalty.
Resting a full evening recovers full HP. Resting for a few minutes
recovers 1d6 HP.

not damaged at all.

Radiation is determined according to their level. When radiation
hits, you need to make a Physical roll against radiation levels
TN. If you fail, roll 1d6: if the result is 3 to 6 you receive
radiation damage equal to the radiation levels damage, apply
this to your HP; if you roll a 1 or 2 you received the radiation
damage as well as gaining a mutation (roll for a random
human/animal mutation if you are a non-plant based race and
plant mutation for plant based race).

4 11 1d6+2
5 13 1d6+3

level. Characters must make a Physical roll against poison levels
TN. On a fail, character received damage equal to poison levels
damage.

In Mutants & Machine-guns, ammunition is abstract. Whenever
you roll a fumble when you are shooting, roll 1d6, on a 1 you
are out of ammo. You may spend a combat round to reload, if
you have that type of ammo for the gun. If you dont, then you
may not use the gun anymore until you find that type of ammo.
On a 2 to 6 your gun is jammed instead, you may spend a
combat round to fix your gun. Ammo is scarce in the Wasteland
chances are to find some is almost zero.

Some guns can go for burst mode which means when you attack a
target and if it hits any leftover damage may go to the next free
unengaged target. It is hard to attack when in burst mode but it will
deliver a heavy damage to target. You get a -1 penalty to attack roll but
if it hits +2 bonus to damage roll.
This is the same with full auto accept a full auto give a -2 penalty to
attack roll but gives a +4 bonus to damage roll.
Shot Mode Attack roll Damage Bonus
Burst -1 penalty to attack roll +2 damage
Full Auto -2 penalty to attack roll +4 damage
Ancient artefacts are things from the ancient past. The ancients
use it to do their chore or other needs such as stunning their
poultry or shooting bad guys. They are usually found in ancient
city or vault. When characters find artefact, the artefacts may or
may not be working. Each artefact has condition rate from 0-5.
Each rating has a probability of working. Roll the table below to
determine if it works or not.
Roll 1d6 Condition Rate Working on 1d6
6 5 2-6
5 4 3-6
4 3 4-6
3 2 5-6
2 1 6
1 0 Not working
If GM have not or do not want to set a specific artefact, roll the
table below. Mundane Item and Ammo are at GM discretion.
Roll 1d6 Random Artefacts
1-2
Mundane Item. GM pick a random
household item i.e. hair brush, a canned
food,etc.
3 Ammo. GM pick random ammo.
4 Medicine. Roll on Medicine table.
5 Melee Weapon. Roll on Melee Weapon.
6 Gun. Roll on Gun table.
When an artefact is working, character must figure out how to
use it. GM will determine how complex from the table below.
Complexity TN Examples
0 5 Mundane item
1 7
Weapons, Grenades, non-power
armour
2 9 Vehicle, robots, power armour
3 11
Computer, medicine, complex
artefacts

Characters then make a Mental roll against the chosen
complexity. A roll of fumble indicates that it failed horribly, and
the character will have damaged himself or nearby characters if
the item is capable of doing it. A roll of critical success will
always succeed, regardless. If successful your character knows
how to use the item. If you failed then you just wasted 1 hour of
game time. Character may make as many roll until he succeed.
For every fail an hour passed.
Characters may try to fix the artefact. The rolls are similar to
artefact roll and the TN is based on complexity TN. Characters
may try unlimited amount of time until character roll a fumble
where artefact will damaged character or other character
around him.

To simply everything, every vehicle has these stats drive,
speed, hull, defence and capacity. All you need to do is pick 1
vehicle, add modification and a name. Remember the more
things that you put in a vehicle the expensive it is.
Vehicle Drive Speed Hull Defence Capacity TU
Bike 2 3 1 4 2 30
Dune Buggy 2 3 2 4 3 35

Speed: determine how fast the vehicle is.
Hull: Basically HP for vehicle although it is handle differently.
Defence: Target number for attacking. To calculate defence add
drivers Physical ability with the vehicle defence score.
Capacity: determine how many (mod) modifications you can
install on the vehicle.
Here are list of modifications for your vehicle. TU = Trade Unit
Mod = Modification
Armour plating (TU 5)(Mod 1)
+1 to defence (max. of 13)
Increased Drive/Speed/Hull (TU 5)(Mod 0)

At the beginning of vehicle combat GM will determine who is
chasing who. The chaser is call predator and the one being
chased is call prey. Unless stated all vehicle start at long range.
Ranges are: Touch Close Short Long Far
The ranges will determine what kind of weapon or action you
can use to destroy your opponent.
Vehicle combat is determined by these phases.
1. Initiative
2. Movement
3. Action
4. End turn
Initiative. Each round, ever vehicle must make an initiative roll
which are 1d6 + speed of the car. The highest won an initiative
and determine the course of the chase.
Chase. Participant with initiative pick difficulty on the difficulty
table. All vehicles then make a chase roll which is 2d6 + speed
against the TN picked just now, this will determine your skill to
drive the vehicle outdoing your predator or trying to get a good
position to attack. If all vehicles succeed or failed nothing
happen as everyone manages to outdo each other. But, if one of
you succeed and the other failed, you may move your vehicle
closer to your target or move further away.
Examples: Metal Maxs car is in close range with Jagged
Mutant. Both makes chase rolls with the outcome of Max
succeed and Jagged Mutant failed. Max then move his vehicle
nearer to Jagged Mutant from long to short range, close enough
to fire his cannon.
Action. Here are lists of action which can be done during vehicle
combat.
1. Attack. If your vehicles weapon is in ranged with your
target, roll 2d6 + drive. If the result is equal or more than
target vehicles defence, you succeed. Roll for weapon
damage.
If attacking critters, apply the damage directly to their HP. If
attacking another vehicle, roll for damage and consult the
damage table below:
Damage roll Damage to Hull
1 5 0 damage
6 11 1 damage
12 17 2 damages
18+ 3 damages

2. Escape. Must be in Far range only. No other vehicle can be
nearer to your vehicle. Roll 2d6 + speed. If the result equal
to or more than opponent with the highest speed +7, you
manage to escape from the battle.
3. Ramming. Must be in Touch range only. Roll 2d6 + drive. If
the result is equal to or higher than target defence, you
succeed. Roll 2d6 + hull for damage.
Damage to Hull. When a vehicles hull reduce to zero, roll 1d6,
on a 2 to 6, the vehicle stop functioning and driver must go on
foot. On a 1, the vehicle blew up. Driver and passenger make a
Physical roll against TN 7. If failed, each driver and passenger
received 2d6 damage.
The Bizzarrian beast are critters that you can rides. They are
defined similar to critters with only exception of the speed stats
which is used for vehicle combat. When attacking in vehicle
combat, they must get to Touch range to attack unless the
Bizzarrian has a ranged attack. Here are some examples:
