[QUOTE="Stalker0, post: 8260669, member: 5889"] I'm glad to see a very simple method for holding supply. Whether its based on strength score, strength mod...I like that its a simple X = Y supply. I mean lets be honest none of the weights and encumbrance for anything make sense, but this actually gives some mechanical advantage to strength which is nice, and makes it dirt simple for players to understand. That said, the supply numbers so far seem pretty generous to me. If I assume the average of 13 strength (a few 8 strength people but you have 18-20 strength fighters), so that's 13 days of travel just on what the party can carry, let alone a horse or a wagon or something. Now you do have the occasional challenge to maybe knock down some of that supply, but that's still like a week and a half of travel on just what you carry, not even accounting for hunting and the like. I guess that's to all the big hikers and campers out there. Do people often carry that much food on them for long journeys? Oh, I also have to question this line in the document: "When an adventurer gains access to food and water, they can add Supply to their inventory." So lets take a river for example, which is standard fare on most long journeys (unless this is the wasteland). How much supply can I regain when I get to a river and refill all of my waterskins?
