I know melee etc is really about man to man combat - But from a RPG point. anything can happen in the story.

In one segment of my town a fire will break out. Do you think it makes more sense for the players to just say - (we organise a chain from the well to the fire, and put out the fire) - end of story.

Or should there be some dice rolling in place to determine how well they do at getting the fire under control,a nd establishing if anyone is hurt etc?
