[QUOTE="Scott DeWar, post: 4850867, member: 49929"] [sblock=personal rant]Ya know, I noticed the mention of putting the rp back into the RPG and though of something I always liked. In A Dand D 2nd ed (players options) combat and tactics I remember a critical hit system that was rather topugh to deal with at times. I hve character the have been on the receving side of critical hits using those rules and some have the scars to prove their hardships. I find that a battle that is hard won is the battles most oft retold. I have characters that were laid up for like 3 months dealing with broken hips and such from crabmen in a game. I loved that game. we only had one character to do running around and playing nurse maid to the rest of the party. It was not the cleric, it was the meat shield. the cleric was the worst for wear! Those were the most memorable moments. we have the Keep that is on the lakes edge where we had to hole up for healing. We are now the lords of that keep. It has great worth!! Happy moments that require rp as leif mentioned are great, but they make me want to just tip my hat at the end of the encounter and move to the next scene of the play. But that is just me.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
