Simple Critical Miss Table for Rubber Band Guns

[This article is part of a series of system neutral Six-Sided Critical Miss Tables.]

Mishaps with rubber band guns are not uncommon, and the frequent result is the inadvertent shooting of oneself, which rarely results in anything more serious than a brief stinging sensation. Our tenth table of tribulation is for use with rubber band guns:

Critical Miss Table for Rubber Band Guns
1d6	Result
1	Drop weapon.
2	Weapon misfires.
3	Drop weapon; discharges in random direction.
4	Shoot self.
5	Shoot self.
6	Shoot self in eye.

Random directions for rubber band projectile weapons, whether caused by accidental discharge or ricochet, may be determined by the usual means (1d6 for hexes, 1d8 for squares, or a compass die) modified by a roll on the following table:

1dF	Result
+	Upward vertical
0	Horizontal
-	Downward vertical

A d6 may be substituted if your Fudge dice have mysteriously (or not-so-mysteriously) disappeared.
