[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 8986514, member: 63508"] I think one of the big issues is a lot of peopple want all hits to be contact hits and all misses to be not contact misses. But since D&D abstracts all of the combat into 2 rolls: an attack roll and damage roll. D&D dials down it all and rolls everything together. A true simulation of combat would roll through or compare each layer that adds toAC [LIST=1] [*]Your Best AC 10 [*]Your Dumb Luck [*]Your Armor [*]Your Shields [*]Your Easy Dodge [*]Your Hard Dodge (uses stamina) [*]Your Easy Weapon Parry [*]Your Hard Weapon Parry (uses stamina) [*]The Incoming Weapon Attack's Cleanness [/LIST] You could easily stick combat into a computer and make it each attack 10 rolls.
