K is for Knowhow

Knowhow is a 'MacGyver' skill in the D6 Epic system. Figuring out how to perform an action in which the character does not have any experience. As well as a catchall skill encompassing areas not covered by specific skills.

The knowhow skill will enable someone to pull a 'MacGyver' but requires skills in storytelling to pull it off, as imagination is a key component in being able to pull together the players other skills and combine with circumstances in order to successfully use this skill.

It will take a very skilled player to be able to use this in the fashion of MacGyver himself, but we have no doubt that such players - once they stumble into our gaming system - will put this to the test!
