Hello there! I’ve been re-reading Vigilante City for a game that I will be running and I usually roam around ICRPG books with my eyes since I am so used to the layout but this time something caught my attention: the city dice.
The book simply says: Roll 1D6 within the District, or use the ‘clock’ 1D12 roll to zoom in.
But what does it mean? How does it work?
You make this roll to choose a random location in the city. Like rolling a D8 for compass directions (N, Ne, E, Se, S, Sw, W, or Nw), you can roll a D6 for a pie area of your city, or even better, roll a D12 and allow the number to reflect which direction of your city is having some event.
So, I might roll a D12 and get a 9. Okay, so now I know that the far west area of the city, The Docks, at the 9 o’clock position, for example, has trouble. Villains are offloading dangerous chemicals at the docks! Batman might need to check it out!
