Gamma World Junkulator
About the Junkulator
The Gamma World Junkulator is a web app for generating random ancient junk for your Gamma World RPG game. The Junkulator pulls from the Grand Unified Junk Table, an edited compilation of junk tables from across all editions of Gamma World and its supplements.
It first pulls the name of a piece of ancient junk, which is up to you and your GM to intrepret in case it comes from an unfamiliar worldline. It also pulls a random condition (culled from the same tables) and assigns it to that item, if you choose. This condition may not always fit, so it's up to you and your GM to decide what it means. Finally, it performs a search on Google Image Search for the title of the junk and returns an image, which, you guessed it, may not fit at all.
You can generate one piece of ancient junk for discoveries during the game or 1d4+1 pieces of ancient junk for your starting characters to begin with. You can also display the entirety of the Grand Unified Junk Table if you want to browse, or roll the old-fashioned way if you have an 823-sided die. I recommend using a 1d8-1 for the hundreds place, then adding a d100 to get a number from 1-800.
We hope you enjoy the Junkulator, and please leave us comments on the announcement. Coding on the Junkulator was completed by Vanir.
