Proposal : The New Seekers

[ Moving Searching out into a new rule and giving it a one-off two-dice roll, to save time and to make room for new items. Also saying that two people can't search the same room on the same day, to encourage exploration... ]

Remove the section "To search for a weapon, [...] can only search once per day." and the paragraph beginning "If a Researcher dies", from Rule 17 (Weaponry).

Enact a new Rule, "Equipment and Searching":-

Lifeforms may carry weapons and equipment; this is tracked in the GNDT. If a Lifeform dies or leaves the game, all of their equipment is lost.

A Lifeform may search their current Location for useful equipment, if no Lifeforms have searched that Location previously in the day. This is done by expending 5 Life (due to the biting cold), with a GNDT comment of "Searching: DICE+DICE". They may then look the result up on the following table, to see what they've found.

2 : Knife.
3 : Knife.
4 : Knife.
5-9 : Nothing found.
10 : Pistol.
11 : Pistol.
12 : Shotgun.

The number of times an item appears in the table represents the number of such items that may exist in the game; if a Lifeform finds an item, but all copies of that item are already in play, then nothing is found.

The Radio may edit the dice results list at any time.
