Welcome, player, to The Survivors, a RTD with some aspects of an AC. This game is started. However, I may accept more players.​

Rolls will be resolved in the following format (borrowed from Ludicrous Edition) :
Your result will be determined by the roll of a die.
Any action that triggers a third-party attack on the player immediately grants a free defence roll.

'Ludicrous Edition' increases the variability of results with a 20-sided die (actually random.org) that in addition to establishing the immediate success of an action, also determines random items found, health/power/money gained/lost, etc. The basic breakdown is as follows:

1 : Unbelievably total failure. Action WILL backfire.
2-4 : Failure, with penalty
5-7 : Marginal failure with possible penalty
8-10 : Failure, no penalty
11-13 : Straightforward success
14-16 : Success, with possible bonus
17-19 : Success, with circumstantial bonus
20 : MAXIMUM POWER. Guaranteed success, with added bonus.

Under binary conditions, 1-10 fails, 11-20 succeeds.

Note that attempting an action requiring an intermediate action (i.e. starting a car with no keys) automatically fails. Also note that the same action cannot be taken twice in a row. Take heed that your GM is unstable, and may tweak the playing field independent of player actions.

Each player may submit one action per phase.

To achieve victory, your mission is simple.

Note that each player has a personal victory and some players will be hostile to the others...

This isn't an AC, I just added some aspects to this from those games.
 
In, since this is a kinda rtd. When I get a comp, and thus the ability to open spoilers, I will read the rules.

Sorry. Can you open PM's? If so, I'll PM them to you.
 
Yes, only trouble with spoilers, read receiots and edit/quote buttons.
 
A few rule changes:
The health regen'd by resting at night now depends on your roll (and medical skill.)
20 new items added.
---
I have the abilities written out for 5 occupations. I just need to finish the other 5 and I'll be almost done.
 
Hmm, I don't have many items related to a Theatre...
:hmm:
icon3.gif

Ok, I'll add all 3, and maybe some items. (Of course, you'll have to search the Theater to find out what they are!)
 
I was thinking a shopping mall... That would include most if not all kinds of other locations...

Not Bridge, Farm, Graveyard, or Field :)
I'm going to add another rule spoiler and I'll PM a copy to you, JoanK.

Points and Achievements are being added.
