[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 5908980, member: 92511"] In my games, I paid/pay attention to encumbrance. But the "charging" stuff, I never really knew...or remember. If, once upon a time, I did know them, I am sure I didn't enforce them. How does "charging" get you 33% of your movement? I mean, I can see it...I understand the reasoning. An the half-again on a mount...makes sense...though I'd be inclined to allow double on a mount. It is a "charge" after all. The whole dex. bonus loss...never played into my games. Of that, I am quite sure. But, somehow (probably because originally you couldn't get "worse" than AC 10) the idea that C 10 people don't while everyone else does...but only by one...so what happens if your Dex bonus to AC is 2 or 3? Apparently, you just lose 1? Hey, don't get me wrong, AD&D is, has always been, "my" game. But I guess, decades of houserules and developing my own game world/setting, years of incorporating 2e rules...and then some 3e elements...and such, have just thwarted/twisted my memory or understanding of the RAW. BUT, this is not "my game" or game world/setting. This is ALL YOU, LIEF! Do with it as thou wouldst. I've found your rulings and allowances thus far to be more than fair to the PCs...and I heartily thank you for it. Having a blast! --SD [/QUOTE]
