Well, when you're playing cops and
robbers, you are role playing. That is, you
are pretending to be someone else.

How to Use the Dice
The referee controls the actions of
many
different characters in the game. Since the
players have no control over these charac-
ters, they are called non-player characters
(NPCs).
Talents
To play, you have to know your character's
talents—his
physical abilities, knowledge,
and skills. These talents determine the
feats your character is capable of and how
likely he is to succeed at them. Some

between the available options. Some of
the actions you take are successful, others
have only a chance for success. Do you feel
lucky?
The gamebox contains two dice. Each
has 10 sides, numbered from 1 to 10. You
can use the dice to roll numbers from 1-

through study and practice. As you play

10, 2-20, etc., or to generate a "percen-
tile" result, a number from 1-100.
When the rules say "roll 1d10," you roll
one 10-sided die and the result is a num-
ber between 1 and 10 (0 - 10).
When the rules say "roll 2d10," you roll
talents or improve ones he or she already
has.
When you create your character, you
choose the talents he or she has and how
the power of the FBI is at your disposal. If
you play John Dillinger, you are a desper-
ate criminal and killer with all sorts of
people out to get you.
Now, imagine that shootout outside the
bank.
No, you don't have to point fingers and
yell "Bang, bang!" Instead, you picture
the scene in your mind, and decide what
you are going to do.
Say, for example, that Dillinger is
two 10-sided dice and add the numbers
together. The result is a number between
2 and 20. For example, if you roll a 10 on
one die and a 3 on the other, the result is
13. You do the same with three, four, or
more dice if the rules say "roll 3d10,"
"roll 4d10," or more.
good he or she is with each talent. This is
indicated by a number following the name
of the talent. The higher the number, the
more skilled the character is with that
talent.
Talent pools
Talents are grouped into
talent pools.
The
talents in each talent pool are related. The

to stop him. In a role-playing game, you
roll dice every time you act, like shooting
at a bank robber, that has a chance of
missing. Your opponent's actions—is he

you? increase or decrease your chance of
success. Instead of shouting "I got you!" a

want a result between 1 and 100. Let one
