Not the author, but if you're confused, I recommend checking out the 2400 Emergency Rules and this blog post. :)
Players can roll various dice - they do so to avoid risks of their chosen actions. d6 by default, higher dice if they have a skill relevant to the action, d4 if hindered, potentially extra dice if being helped - see the Rolling section.
The d6 rolls in Running The Game are meant to be done by the GM.
Hello!
Yesterday, I finished running my first ever (proper) campaign. I was using a custom 24XX hack, initially calling it RESISTANCE, then settling on BΔCKPRESSURE. It was a blast, my players enjoyed it, and agreed to stick together for more gaming (!!). Our next game might not be anything from the 2400/24XX family, but I'd definitely love to return to it and try a different approach to running it at some point.
So.. yeah, thank you for making 2400!
