So I sat down one afternoon and created my own, which were used consistently until 3.0 came out. Anyway, on those tables we had two things that stand out in my memory - divine intervention and the dreaded "terrain attack!".Divine intervention was just that - on a 00 on the % roll, one or more of the gods happened to be watching and intervened in the battle. These moments were always spectacular, and usually meant the end of a battle in favor of the one who score a crit (and against those with a fumble).Terrain attacks came in two forms - major and minor. Minor terrain attacks meant that the battlefield itself shifted in such a way to either help or hinder the attacker (depending on if it was a crit or fumble). The could be something as simple as a slick patch on the ground, a tree falling in such a way as to provide cover for one side, or a small rockslide. Major terrain attacks were far worse - earthquakes, lightning strikes, major mudslides that swept away one side or the other - anything could happen, and usually did.I think I remember us escaping certain death when an earthquake hit the area, dropping much of the opposing force's goons in a deep crevice and allowing us the time to run like the wind.</blockquote>
