How does this make the fighter MAD if the impact of high stats has been drastically reduced?Yes Init should be rolled each round. Never played HERO? Int makes much more sense than Dex for initiative. Intelligence is taking in data, processing it and spitting out decisions. The round is abstract so the twitchy part of Dex is meaningless. If rounds were 1 second each then I'd agree that Dex is the only thing that makes sense. But when you are choosing your action for a 10 second or 1 minute round. Then whoever is the best decision maker should act first.[quote[3E got surprise right - it either exists or it doesn't.  No checks to make there.</blockquote>There is surprise in 3E. What are you talking about?You are too literal for my response. I am spitballing ideas for a hypothetical game not engraving in stone the ONE TRUE 1E REVISION. So sometimes my writing is imprecise. I should not have said spell resistance since it is a pre-existing 1e term. The only bonus you get to saving throws is Cha based. Why would we waste our time discussing a few possible house rules to 1E? This is a thread for reimagining 1E. Scared cows be damned.[/QUOTE]
