Core Mechanic
Roll 2–5d20 against a target number (Attribute + Skill). Each die at or under the target scores a success. Compare successes to difficulty (1–5). Extra successes become Action Points to buy bonus dice, extra damage, or information.
Best For
Fallout fans who want to explore the Wasteland at the tabletop with SPECIAL attributes, perks, Action Points, and the iconic post-apocalyptic setting.
Highlights
Faithful Fallout experience with S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats and perks, Action Point economy creates tactical depth, Combat Dice handle damage cleanly, well-supported licensed setting
Considerations
Expensive to buy in — core book plus supplements add up, 2d20 system has a learning curve, tightly tied to the Fallout IP limits homebrew settings, can be crunchy for casual groups
