Hi,
I'm not new to RPGs, but I am to Dark Conspiracy. That is, I've never played it but the rulebook has sat on my shelf since 1991! I knew I'd get around to playing it one day.
I'm just not understanding Attribute and Skill tests. I understand the difficulties, but what exactly is rolled?
Cheers.

Let me think of an example, but each skill has an attribute you add. If you have EDU:5 and chemistry :3, 5 plus 3 is "8" before any moderators, if you use Computer:1,5 plus 1 is "6".

Thanks for the reply.
I thought that was how it worked, but book mentions Percentage dice and that just threw me.

There was an odd mechanic that required you to roll against attributes on a percentile dice in a specific situation. I forget exactly what it was now - possibly if you were severely injured you had to roll your CON as a % before you could do anything - good luck with that.
