1/21/2002 Ron Edwards: Phrasing of Scattershot's dice resolution

1/31/2002 Le Joueur: It's Here!
After many private requests for a 'mechanics-only' version of Scattershot, without all the presumptuous design-speak, I have finally cobbled one together. (I bet you were wondering where I had disappeared…
