Simple ammunition and fuel

Ammunition is used in a variety of firearms, melee weapons, and even a few unarmed weapons (like the Power Fist). They run the gamut from the humble rivet to the mighty Micro-Fusion Cell (MFC).
==Ammo Variants==
Some types of ammunition can support variants. Variants modify the base properties of the ammo. Ammo variants often cost more money than standard ammo. Characters with a high Mechanics skill can also manufacture ammo variants.

==Ammo Types==
===12 ga.===
Shot, Slug / 1d6+18 (19-24
Ingredients: 2 Propellant, 1 Metal, 1 Plastic, 1 Brass
Tech Level: 5
12 gauge shotgun ammunition is relatively easy to make and is only found in shotguns (sawed-off, standard, and combat).
===.223 cal===
FMJ, JHP, AP / 1d10+20 (21-30)
Ingredients: 2 Propellant, 1 Metal, 2 Brass
Tech Level: 7
.223 ammunition is used primarily in assault rifles and miniguns, though it occasionally is used in odd handguns.
===.22 cal===
FMJ / 1d8+1 (2-9)
Ingredients: 1 Propellant, 1 Metal, 1 Brass
Tech Level: 6
.22 is a very light caliber reserved for handguns and rifles. A variant of .22, called injector, is used in specialized tranquilizer guns.
===.22 Injector===
SI, NAI, TI / 1d6 (1-6)
Ingredients: 1 Propellant, 1 Metal, 1 Brass, 1 Medic
Tech Level: 7
.22 Injector ammo is not very damaging, but it is not meant to be. The dart simply serves to inject one of three flavors of chemical concoctions in the target. Though robots are immune to the substances, most other creatures are quite vulnerable.
===2mm EC===
Standard / 2d6+15 (17-27) / -20 DT
Ingredients: 6 Metal, 1 Fusion
Tech Level: 8
2mm EC is the "standard" (but still extremely rare) form of ammunition used in gauss rifles. They pack less of a punch than the 15mm EC, but are still very bad news for armor.
===.30 cal===
FMJ, JHP, AP / 1d10+25 (26-35)
Ingredients: 2 Propellant, 1 Metal, 2 Brass
Tech Level: 6
An American favorite, the .30 rounds are used exclusively in rifles and machineguns.
===40mm Rifle Grenade===
Frag, IL / 10d6 (10-60)
Ingredients: 10 Propellant, 4 Metal
Tech Level: 6
40mm rifle grenades can be fired from a stand-alone rifle grenade launcher or an underslung rifle grenade launcher. They have a much higher range than thrown grenades, but tend to do less damage.
===.44 cal===
FMJ, HP, AP, DD / 1d8+14 (15-22)
Ingredients: 2 Propellant, 1 Metal, 1 Brass
Tech Level: 6
Used in a massive handgun and the occasional rifle, .44 is one of the most powerful calibers in common use in the Core Region.
===.45 cal===
FMJ, HP, AP, DD / 1d8+8 (9-16)
Ingredients: 1 Propellant, 1 Metal, 1 Brass
Tech Level: 6
The .45 caliber packs more of a punch than its 9mm brother, but it lacks slightly in armor penetration. It is used in revolvers, autoloaders, and submachineguns.
===.50 cal===
FMJ, JHP, AP / 1d10+10 (21-30)
Ingredients: 3 Propellant, 2 Metal, 2 Brass
Tech Level: 7
The dreaded .50 caliber round is used in three weapons: an anti-material rifle, a gargantuan handgun, and the strange "pistol katar". The first two weapons require high strength to wield, but .50 rounds are the most powerful conventional rounds in the game.
===7.62mm===
FMJ, JHP, AP / 1d10+15 (16-25) / -10 DT
Ingredients: 2 Propellant, 1 Metal, 2 Brass
Tech Level: 7
The high velocity of the 7.62mm round makes it ideal for long range sniper rifles and assault weapons, but it often over-penetrates when it hits a target. While the .223 round is used against soft targets, the 7.62mm is used against armored opponents and other hard targets like robots.
===9mm===
FMJ, HP, AP, DD / 1d8+4 (5-12) / -10 DT
Ingredients: 1 Propellant, 1 Metal, 1 Brass
Tech Level: 6
The plentiful 9mm round is a favorite in handguns and submachine guns. There's even a wildly-inaccurate one-handed machine pistol that uses 9mm rounds. 9mm rounds aren't very damaging, but they are plentiful and can slip past light armor.
===Arrow===
TR, BR / 1d6 (1-6)
Ingredients: 1 Metal, 1 Wood, 1 Fauna
Tech Level: 2
Arrows are common among tribals, who use them for hunting, raiding, and defending their lands.
===Bolt===
TR, BR / 1d6 (1-6)
Ingredients: 1 Metal, 1 Wood, 1 Fauna
Tech Level: 3
Bolts are common among tribals and poor caravan guards. They are also often used for quiet killing.
===MFC===
Standard / 2d6+20 (22-32) Energy
Micro-fusion cells are used for a variety of purposes, but most often are used to generate the intense power required for plasma weapons. A fully charged MFC contains 10 charges.
===Naphate===
Standard / 5d10 (5-50) Energy
Manufactured from a special blend of traditional napalm ingredients and ammonium nitrate, naphate is used in flame weapons like the hand flamer and flamethrower.
===Heavy Rivet===
HV, AP / 1d10+10 (11-20) / -10 DT
Heavy rivets are only used in heavy riveters. They consist of the rivet itself and an explosive propellant charge.
===Lil' Rivet===
HV, AP / 1d10+5 (6-15) / -10 DT
Lil' rivets are only used in lil' riveters. They consist of the rivet itself and an explosive propellant charge.
===Rocket===
HE, IL, EMP, PC / 1d6+3 * 10 (40-90) Explosion
Rockets come in a variety of forms, but all are fired from a standard rocket launcher. A target directly hit by a rocket is in big trouble, and those standing nearby are often sent flying as well.
===SEC===
Standard / 1d10+10 (11-20) Energy
Normally used to power laser weapons, small energy cells are also occasionally used for mundane electrical purposes like the powering of a minigun. A fully charged SEC contains 20 charges.
==Reloading Ammunition and Fuel==
Characters in Fallout can't fire bullets forever. When they run out, it's time to reload. The cost for reloading varies by the type of the reloading being done. Clearing means to release/remove the item. The magazines/shells/etc. drop to the ground after being cleared unless the character wants to catch it in his or her other hand (assuming it is not holding something else) as a free action. Loading means that the character places an item full of ammo into the receiver. This is not done with individual rounds, which are packed. Packing means that the character is placing a single round into the item, one at a time.
* Clear: Move, Can Charge
* Load: Move, Can Charge
* Clear & Load: Move, Cannot Charge
* Pack (2): Move, Can Charge
* Clear and Pack (2): Move, Cannot Charge
