OK, Choomba. You've got a brilliant idea for a game, the team is going to go out and find something that's relevant to the plot. You've come up with lots of relevant details on characters, locations the macguffin etc - and that's the problem: they're all relevant to the plot. They go to the only fleshed-out location, talk to the only NPCs and find the only item in the only room that's got something in it.

This is where this range of books comes in and shines! Instead of spending hours wracking your brains to come up with stuff to obfuscate your plot-relevant details and flesh out your dystopian setting into something with real atmosphere, a few rolls of the dice on the tables in this book will provide you with any number of dwellings, their contents and occupants.

The tables are designed to be "system agnostic" and therefore work equally well with Cyberpunk (from 2013 to Red), Shadowrun, Altered Carbon, GURPS or any other dark future setting or even some science fiction se
