Maybe a critical hit should be any hit where you rolled less than 10 and still hit your opponent? (No extra confirmation roll, no comparing mutliple values. Just look at the dice to find out if your hit was a critical.)(That's an approach I liked in Warhammer - or Midgard? Roll percentile dice to determine hit. Reverse the order of the numbers to get your hit location. No extra roll or computing, it's all in one single dice)But this aside: How often does such a situation like your farmer example occur at all? Would he actutally ever roll a hit before the fighter drops him? How often should the whole "can only hit on a 20" happen at all in a real encounter scenario? If you remove this situation mostly from the game, the impact of the autohit = critial rule is so marginal that it's not worth discussiong.</blockquote>
