What does Equipment Failure Generator create?
Prepare a specific fault for named equipment: current use, cause, warning signs, exact failure, immediate effect, lost time and resources, knock-on consequence, field fix and specialist or permanent repair. The result turns damaged equipment into practical decisions for the campaign.
Which equipment and severity can I choose?
Choose adventuring gear, a weapon, armour, rigging, a vehicle, ship, mount tack, siege gear, camping equipment or a magical tool. Set severity from an inconvenience to a catastrophic breakdown and keep the failure appropriate to the named equipment.
What do Quick and Deep preparation include?
Quick names the equipment, chooses its type and severity and lets you prepare a pending roll when the actual dice still need to decide the result. Deep adds the situation, cause, warning signs, repair resources, owner, things to avoid and private context.
How are repairs and rules handled?
Prepare a field repair from available materials and tools, then describe the specialist, cost, time and permanent fix. Use an optional real roll when the table still needs to decide success. Your table rules decide damage and item statistics. This generator never starts or changes combat and sends nothing to Combat PRO.
How do I revise and share the result?
Edit individual sections, use locks and selective changes and save versions. Reopen a saved failure with its cause, warning signs, costs, consequences and repairs. Copy, download or print the chosen Dungeon Master view or separate player result. Review the chosen passages for audience and spoilers, keeping hidden sabotage and private context separate.
Where do I use it, and how do I choose access?
Open Equipment Failure Generator from the Generators collection in Desktop Command Centre on Windows. Create a free VISINVOKE account and review current access and pricing for the selected standalone generator or an eligible pack. Other VISINVOKE products have separate access arrangements.
