    Armor converting hpt damage to Subdual

    As another option, you could also rule that... If the attack roll is at least 4 greater than required, armour protection is ignored.

    Don't Leave Home Without It...

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. It's nice to know that others may get some use out of this as well :) Thanks. Wouldn't it be great if we got to choose our names, instead of our parents? Thanks again. I started off (as I recall, it was quite a while ago) with numbers similar to yours i.e...

    Don't Leave Home Without It...

    Yikes! Not even a negative comment, just how boring is this idea anyway? ;)

    Armor converting hpt damage to Subdual

    Haven't given it much thought, but... Perhaps you could apply the same concept using the following (reduced) values if you want the results to be slightly less "soft": ARMOUR TYPE DR/DAMAGE CONVERSION Light 1pt Medium 2pts Heavy 3pts...

    Don't Leave Home Without It...

    Why...your helmet of course! <---;) __________________________________________________ Another tidbit from the dusty tomes... Much of my campaign has a dark ages feel with respect to the type of armor worn, yet the primary defensive items of this time are woefully under-represented in the...

    En Garde!

    I was going through some of my old notes, and stumbled across the following. It has never been playtested, and is probably replete with bugs--but perhaps someone can pull something useful from it. Be forewarned, most of my "knowledge" concerning fencing comes from Errol Flynn movies...

    What is your favorite campaign setting?

    What, no Mystara?! :( Anyway... For my heavily modified Basic D&D campaign--Mystara. For my slightly less modified AD&D(1e) campaign--Greyhawk.

    Alt Ranger

    This is one of the nicer variants I've seen :) I hate to see a fellow Ranger-lover in pain though, maybe you could re-incorporate Wilderness Stride, Trackless Step, the Move Bonus, etc... by re-naming and adding them to the virtual list--or something similar... LIGHT STEP: Difficulty to track...

    Same name different signature (I wonder how it turned out). Have to work on getting one of those nifty avatars ;)
