Reaction Tables

In Trash Tokyo, reaction tables are used to control units (or groups of units) which are not under the direct control of a player. This includes units which have not used any Actions in a turn. Each unit (or group of units) is rolled for once per turn. The reaction table conditions are read from left to right and the first applicable column is used. A D6 is rolled, the modifiers added and the result applied. You are encouraged to experiment with these tables, particularly the Monster Reaction Table. After all, not every monster reacts in the same way, or even to the same things. In fact, some of them may even be intelligent...
