The Fallout series began as a TTRPG adaptation. The first Fallout game was originally going to be modeled after the GURPS TTRPG system, inspired by some of the creator's own 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:post-apocalyptic tabletop campaigns. This was changed because the licensing fell through, but the system the early Fallout games ultimately adopted was still very TTRPG-esq📖ue, with turn-based combat, distance-tracked movement, and action economy.

FAQ

What system does the Fallout TTRPG use?

Fallout: The Roleplaying ജGame uses the 2d20 system. Accomplishing tasks in this game requires you to obtain a certain number of successes, which you gain by rolling d20s and getting results that are at or below a target number. This means that, unlike in many games, low numbers are good. You can also expend resources to improve your odds by giving yourself extra dice to roll, each having their own chance of netting you a success.

Is the Fallout TTRPG canon?

This RPG takes place in the Fallout universe in the same way any TTRPG takes place in its own setting. While the GM has ultimate control over your table's iteration of the setting, the default assumption is that the events of the Fallout games "happened" in your universe.
