[QUOTE="dagger, post: 6396927, member: 279"] I give this cheat sheet out to newbs, not sure if it helps or hurts. :) Yes I use Thac0 in 1e.....we use the 2e table. THAC0 - Modified Roll = AC Hit. This method is good if you don’t know the targets AC. OR Modified THAC0 - Roll = AC Hit. Same as above except all modifiers are already applied to your thac0. OR Roll d20 and add modifiers and then add opponent's AC, if it matches or exceeds your THAC0 you hit. This only works if you know the targets AC. OR Roll d20 and look at your character sheet the DM has filled out for you. This only works if you know the targets AC EXAMPLE: Thac0 15 +3 hit (magic, strength, whatever) Targets AC is 4 Player rolls a 7 on the d20: Method 1: 15 – 10 (7+3) = 5 MISS Method 2: 12 – 7 = 5 MISS - Remember the +3 lowers ThAC0 Method 3: 10 (7+3) + 4 (AC 4) = 14 MISS [/QUOTE]
