Tonight at House of Plot...

...I will be mostly running a game of Transhuman Space, but using FATE instead of GURPS. Players are those who live there and majic13. Everybody will need 4d6... I have a small bunch of them, and I'm sure others do as well. Ideally I'll get some Fudge dice soon, but I can't find them for mail order in the UK, which is more than a little awkward.

In the meantime, I'll need people to pretend normal dice are fudge dice... which means remembering the following:
1-2 = -1
3-4 = 0
5-6 = +1

Folks should already have seen the (in some cases, slightly tailored) pregens, so you should have some idea of the kind of character you're playing already...

I'm going to aim to get started by 7:00 - 7:30, so we get a reasonable amount of game time before majic13 has to leave.

i actually have a couple of set of fudge dice, but theres just a couple of guys in my RP group who want some and keep nicking mine

majic13 has some, but they are lost in the darkest depths of Reading somewhere. When they surface, they will be pressganged into service in my game.

Another option is to use what's called 4d6.1 - which is kind of odd. Roll 4d6, take the number of sixes and subtract the number of ones. It's like 4dF but with a greater weighting around zero.
