252 The Lawmaster DEFENCE. The Lawmaster’s DEFENCE is equal to its current SPEED plus 12. While riding a Lawmaster, the Judge gains the vehicle’s DEFENCE if it is higher than his own. As an open vehicle, the rider does not gain its SOAK of 10. The iconic bike of the Judges, the Lawmaster motorbike is a formidable piece of equipment. Armed with the Cyclops Laser and bike cannon it provides a Judge with enough firepower to deal with almost any situation. The bike’s computer allows it to run independently, so it can be used as a decoy or even to tackle perps head on while its rider can concentrate on other tasks.

Vehicle-mounted weaponry can only be fired once per round, and the Lawmaster cannot fire its bike cannon and Cyclops Laser in the same round. Bike Cannon (gunnery). A powerful twin cannon which is the most used armament on the Lawmaster bike. Cyclops Laser (gunnery). Mounted on the front of the Lawmaster bike, the Cyclops Laser is the most effective weapon a Street Judge would normally have for use against vehicles and other large targets. Lawrod Rifle (rifles). This is the standard rifle carried by Street Judges in a side-holster of their Lawmaster cycles. It is a highly accurate long-range rifle capable of great penetration and accuracy. Automatic Mode. When ordered to by its rider, a Lawmaster can operate on automatic. When doing so, it makes all checks with a 3d6 dice pool. Weapon Damage Type Range Cost Size Weight Avail.

253 The Lawgiver The standard issue sidearm used by the Judges of Mega-City One, the Lawgiver pistol is a versatile combat weapon. It has a switch that controls its operation, allowing it to fire a selection of specialised ammunition types tailored for the day-to-day hazards that a Judge might encounter out in the field. It takes one action to change ammo type. All Lawgiver pistols have both the Automatic ID-Matched and Explosive Booby Trapped (3d6 damage) customisations. They use a palm-print recognition device locked to the Judge whose print is programmed into the gun’s memory. If the wrong user attempts to operate the weapon, it will self-destruct with a powerful explosion. This system is linked to a Judge’s gloves, which have the same recognition system built into them. Ammunition Types Standard Execution (Dum-dum) Rounds. This is the standard round fired by the Lawgiver. It is highly effective against normal perps. Rubber Ricochet. A round designed to bounce off solid surfaces and still penetrate flesh. A Judge using this kind of ammo type can easily take down a perp who is using a human shield or is behind cover. It is highly effective if fired into an enclosed space (such as an armoured vehicle or small bunker) of less than 10’ diameter, gaining a +2d6 bonus when firing into such an area. When using this round a Judge with the Ricochet exploit using this round only has to pay 2d6 to ‘bounce’ their attack. Incendiary. A dangerous round, this is exceptional at creating diversions by setting targets alight. Use against human perps is discouraged due to the horrific injuries this round causes. Repeated use of incendiary rounds against such targets where alternative rounds are available is grounds for an SJS investigation. On a hit, the target automatically gains the Burning condition. Armour Piercing. Armour piercing rounds are designed for use against targets that have some sort of armour protection. These rounds ignore 10 points of SOAK, but do half damage. High-Explosive (HI-EX). The HI-EX round packs a real punch and is highly effective in targeting vehicles and robots, blasting them into smaller pieces. It has a Burst 1 (5’ radius) burst area and does double damage to robots and inanimate objects. Heat Seeker (Hot Shot). Heat seeker rounds lockon to targets via their heat signature, enabling the Judge to target fleeing perps accurately in low-light conditions, or those hiding behind cover. This gives a +2d6 bonus when firing but cannot be used in the first range increment or against a target with alternative targets within 10’. Weapon Damage Type Range Cost Size Weight Avail.

255 Enduring Humans may not be the fastest or the strongest, but they are known for their resilience. Humans get +1 to their 1d6 die roll to shake off a temporary condition. Academy of Law Curriculum You gained one rank in each of the following skills: law, pistols, riding, light armour, clubs (already included). You are also able to use law as a MENTAL DEFENCE skill. Sense Emotion You can automatically sense strong emotions in those you can see. Voice of the Law You know how to speak with an authoritative voice which citizens and perps alike respond to. By making a CHA mental attack, you can make a target who can hear you perform one action. That action cannot be directly harmful to the target or another individual. You might order a perp to freeze or to drop his weapons, or you might order a civilian to move aside. If you fail in the attempt your target cannot be affected by you using this ability in future. Distinction You passed your rookie assignment with distinction. You gained +2 REP (already included). Precog Defence You instinctively sense attacks before they happen. You gain +2 to both MELEE and RANGED DEFENCE (already included). Aim This is identical to the Feint exploit, but for ranged combat; it grants +1d6 bonus to an attack roll taken in the same turn. The attack action must come immediately after the aiming action. Psi-blast You can use an action and make a PSI vs. MENTAL DEFENCE attack to blast an opponent with a mental burst which does 1d6 psychic damage, +1d6 per additional 4 PP you spend, and has a range increment of 10. Inspiring You are able to instil positive emotions in people with your words, using an action to give one ally a +1d6 bonus to their next attribute check if they are within 30' feet of you. Sera Devi showed psychic aptitude from the day she was recruited into the Academy of Law at age 5. However, until she was 16, it seemed to be nothing but a minor talent she could use to make others see her in a more positive light. It wasn't until a jealous classmate attempted to frame her for cheating in a test that her powers truly blossomed, allowing her to see, and share, the truth of the matter with her superiors. 400cr

257 Enduring Humans may not be the fastest or the strongest, but they are known for their resilience. Humans get +1 to their 1d6 die roll to shake off a temporary condition. Clumsy You often stumble or drop items. You are so used to falling that you take less damage than most from a fall. Reduce the height fallen by 10' when calculating falling damage. Academy of Law Curriculum You gained one rank in each of the following skills: law, pistols, riding, light armour, clubs (already included). You are also able to use law as a MENTAL DEFENCE skill. On Your Feet! You can heal an adjacent creature 1d6 HEALTH with two actions. No creature can benefit from this healing more than once per day. One Eye Open You learned to sleep with one eye open. When you are asleep, you gain the benefits of a full rest but you are considered to be awake for all other purposes. Only Knocked Out One time only, when you would normally have been killed, you are simply knocked out. You wake the next day with 1 HEALTH. Once you have used this ability, it is permanently gone. Medical Savant You can automatically alleviate a temporary condition, removing it, on an adjacent creature. A creature can only benefit from this once per day. Leadership You are able to donate one or more of your available LUC dice to another character as a free reaction to their attempting an attribute check. You must declare this before they roll the dice. Aim This is identical to the Feint exploit, but for ranged combat; it grants +1d6 bonus to an attack roll taken in the same turn. The attack action must come immediately after the aiming action. Grown as a clone, all Judge Clayton Halsey has known is the Academy. His fellow cadets and Judges are his family and, like all Judges, he is fiercely loyal in his belief and commitment. He was assigned to become a Med Judge despite his inner dream of being a Street Judge. He sometimes battles his own inner self who still resents the fact that he isn't on the streets cleaning Mega-City One up, as opposed to having to patch and seal-up Judges incompetent enough to get hurt in the line of duty. He knows that if he was walking the streets he wouldn't end up on the slab half as much as some of the Judges he regularly attends to. These feelings cause him anxiety at times as he struggles between his fierce loyalty and belief, and his inner anger and resentment. He is, however, very good at his job and often seems to put himself in harm's way to help fellow Judges, although that might be more so he has an excuse to get into a fight himself, satisfying his inner turmoil. 480cr

259 Enduring Humans may not be the fastest or the strongest, but they are known for their resilience. Humans get +1 to their 1d6 die roll to shake off a temporary condition. Athletic Brawny and strong, you are able to plough through difficult terrain. Difficult terrain does not reduce your speed. Academy of Law Curriculum You gained one rank in each of the following skills: law, pistols, riding, light armour, clubs (already included). You are also able to use law as a MENTAL DEFENCE skill. Good Position Enemies do not get ranged attack bonuses against you when they have you in a crossfire. Pacification It is not Judge brutality; it is efficient pacification measures. You do +1d6 damage when using a baton or club (already included in daystick stats). Hardened Your time as a cadet toughened you physically and emotionally. You gained +2 to both MENTAL and VITAL DEFENCE (already included). No Collateral Damage Holding a human shield is pointless when you are around. You will fire anyway. You suffer no penalties when firing into melee. Cleave When using STR as your attack attribute, you follow through in one mighty swing, and make an additional attack at -1d6 against an adjacent foe if the first one hits. Aim This is identical to the Feint exploit, but for ranged combat; it grants +1d6 bonus to an attack roll taken in the same turn. The attack action must come immediately after the aiming action. Judge Jessica Morris has, in her short time on the streets, become feared by the local street gangs in her assigned sector. This has been mostly achieved through an uncompromising attitude and liberal use of her daystick. As a cadet she always excelled in the Applied Violence classes and as a rookie was assigned to Judge Ocks. Ocks, while young for a Senior Judge, is well known within Justice Department for using his formidable physical strength in confrontations with perps. Unsurprisingly his rookie has followed his example in becoming a scourge for the city's street thugs. Judge Morris is currently awaiting reassignment having successfully tracked down a kidnapping gang operating in the sector. While it is possible she has brought all those perps to justice, she is almost certain that some of the gang escaped and is currently on the lookout for any leads that might bring them within her grasp. 320cr

261 Enduring Humans may not be the fastest or the strongest, but they are known for their resilience. Humans get +1 to their 1d6 die roll to shake off a temporary condition. Erudite You remember a vast catalogue of knowledge. At any time you may make a LOG check in place of any CHA check to interact with someone by recalling a piece of trivia of interest to them, although only once per target. Academy of Law Curriculum You gained one rank in each of the following skills: law, pistols, riding, light armour, clubs (already included). You are also able to use law as a MENTAL DEFENCE skill. Performance Tweak You can increase the SPEED of a vehicle by 2 by spending one minute tweaking its engine and throttle. The increase lasts for one hour, after which the vehicle operates at half SPEED until an hour is spent restoring it. Lawmaster Kick You can knock down a fleeing perp using a well timed kick as you sweep past on your Lawmaster. From a moving Lawmaster (or any other motorcycle), make an unarmed melee attack against an adjacent target using your riding skill rather than an unarmed combat skill. On a successful attack, the perp takes your unarmed damage and is knocked prone. Hardened Your time as a cadet toughened you physically and emotionally. You gained +2 to both MENTAL and VITAL DEFENCE (already included). Explosives You can create explosives from common items and surroundings. The explosive takes 30 minutes to make and causes 3d6 heat damage to all within 5'. The explosive can be stored, but only for up to two hours. Achilles Heel Identifying a weakness in your target, you pay 2d6 and bypass its soak score. This exploit can only be performed once per target. Alternatively, you may grant this bonus to one ally who must use it within one round. Aim This is identical to the Feint exploit, but for ranged combat; it grants +1d6 bonus to an attack roll taken in the same turn. The attack action must come immediately after the aiming action. Tek Judge Terence Novak showed an aptitude for mechanics early on. After he dismantled and alphabetically arranged the components of every single electronic device in their home, his parents sought counselling, and Terence was almost immediately removed to the custody of the Justice Department to be trained as a Tek Judge. Cadet Novak received a commendation when he used his mechanical skills to assist noted Judge Jack in the arrest of a disaffected cadet who attempted to destroy the academy with an improvised explosive device. Since becoming a qualified Judge, Novak has not missed an opportunity to remind his peers of his achievement, a habit that has not made him popular with with his fellow Judges. 240cr

Welcome to the Worlds of 2000 AD! Voyage into the far future in this versatile tabletop game of science fiction adventure. Mutant bounty hunters hunt down the scum of the universe. The noble houses of a resurgent imperial Russia use every means at their disposal to attempt to become the supreme power; using bribery, assassination, espionage, diplomacy and war. The solar system is invaded by the Geeks – a hostile alien race hell bent on the destruction of mankind, on Earth and her colonies in the solar system. Criminal hitmen fulfil their contracts, blasting their way though rivals and bodyguards to achieve their bloody payday. Occult investigators hunt down demons and restless spirits threatening both the lives and souls of the people of Britain. And then there is Dredd. The top lawman in a vast city of over 800 million citizens. He contends with criminals, mutant raiders, aliens, rogue robots and enemy agents from other, hostile, megacities. This roleplaying game provides the core rules for the science fiction worlds of 2000 AD. It also provides in depth material allowing you to create and run adventures in the world of Judge Dredd. Inside you will find: /// Rules for creating humans, clones, robots, mutants and uplifted apes. The fun, intuitive life path system allows you to run games for a group of Judges, perps or citizens. /// A wide array of equipment and weapons from the pages of Judge Dredd. Use the iconic lawgiver pistol with its six different bullet types. Use the daystick baton to subdue perps when up close to them. Ride the lawmaster bike, the two-wheeled king of the road. /// Full rules for running the game, including fast but tactical combat, environments, and extended scientific, medical and engineering tasks. /// An exploration of Dredd’s world with many key locations of Dredd’s city detailed along with information on how to use them in games. /// An introductory adventure where you can play as Judges, perps or citizens. All with very different goals and aims. Whether you are a street gang looking to make it into the big time with a major robbery, a task force of Judges trying to dismantle a major criminal organisation or a group of citizens just hoping to negotiate the Black Friday sales at one of the massive shoplexes (the most dangerous task of all) this book has you covered!
