FWW - RPG Core Rulebook - Parte7

The document provides an introduction to the core rules of a tabletop roleplaying game set in a post-nuclear wasteland. It describes how the gamemaster guides the story and uses the core rules to resolve situations of uncertainty, failure, or risk through skill tests. Players can freely describe their character's actions and the gamemaster narrates the results. When combat occurs, play is divided into rounds and turns to represent a short period of time for each character to act.

when taking actions with their NPCs.

In any situation where your character’s success is


in doubt, their failure is interesting, or they are at
risk, you need to attempt a skill test. A skill test is
a moment in the game where the rules are used to
resolve a situation or conflict, but once that’s figured
out the gamemaster continues narrating the scene
based on your actions, and might describe how their
non-player characters and creatures react.

This mode of play is freeform, where each player can


act freely in no particular order, and fictional time
passes as it makes sense to the actions your group
attempts. When you begin fighting, play is divided up
into rounds and turns, with each player taking a turn,
and each round representing a short period of time in
which every character gets to act.
