This article is intended for use with Sherpa, a role-playing game by Steffan O'Sullivan published by Two Tigers Games. Access to Sherpa is necessary to utilize these rules.
Card-Based Action Resolution is an alternative to the stopwatch-based Action Resolution, p. 12 in the Sherpa rules.
Preparation: Take a standard deck of cards. Remove all Jokers and face cards. Shuffle the remaining cards. Place one Joker at the bottom of the deck.
Execution: Whenever it is necessary to generate a random number, draw the top card, read the number, and place it at the bottom of the deck.
Reshuffle: When you draw the Joker card, remove it, shuffle the deck, and replace it at the bottom of the deck. Return to Execution.
Note: Using this method, the GM can easily show the players the result of an action. In an opposed action, the GM can retain both cards for comparison until it is resolved.
