In the Paranoia RPG, decision outcomes are often determined by rolling six-sided dice (d6). The following table provides a simple scoring system for interpreting dice rolls in the context of decision results. Each score corresponds to a different outcome, reflecting the chaotic and unpredictable nature of the game. Players can use this table to determine the consequences of their decisions based on their dice rolls. Dice Roll Result 1 Critical Failure: Catastrophic consequences. Expect trouble! 2 Failure: Things didn't go as planned. Prepare for complications. 3 Partial Success: Success with some unexpected twists. Adapt accordingly. 4 Success: Mission accomplished, but not without a few hitches. 5 Near Perfect Success: Excellent job! Minimal complications, if any. 6 Critical Success: Outstanding! Everything goes better than expected. Enjoy the glory. Players can roll one or more dice, depending on the difficulty or complexity of the task at hand. The higher the total score, the better the overall result. The Game Master (or Friend Computer) should use these outcomes to guide the narrative and inject the appropriate level of chaos and humor into the game. Remember, in Paranoia, even success can lead to unexpected and amusing consequences!
