However, overall, they are not as extensive as the Rolemaster ones, nor were they meant to be.Rolemaster critical tables have 5 columns, each with 19 rows of critical effects. The Critical Tables in HARP are also 19 rows, but they are a single column. By simple definition, the HARP tables cannot be considered to be as extensive. However, HARP does have a few that tables that Rolemaster does not, like the Internal and External Poison (this one doubles for acid as well) tables. In the HARP product, Martial Law, we expand the tables so that theyare 5 x 19 just like Rolemaster, however these tables have each column keyed by hit location. In the PDF product, Hack & Slash, we have single column critical tables, but they are combined with a small attack matrix as well, and there are critical adjustments that can be made according to location hit (all right on a single page).So, no, they are not as extensive, but then again, they were not trying to be. However, if you liked Arms Law (and for Rolemaster we also have a product called The Armory, which offers even more attack tables for new weapons), you can use it with HARP with just 2 small adjustments to your character.1) Determine AT - compare armor worn against the AT definitions and select the closest match.2) remove the Armor bonus from DB.That is it, and you can use HARP characters with Arms Law.(Side note: there are also several different options available for using HARP without the critical tables at all - Life/Hit point options and straight hit point options both in various products - lots of choice all around).NOTE: If you would like to continue discussing this, please feel free to start a thread over in the General forum. I can then respond as fully as you like, and we won't sidetrack Crothian's thread anymore. Sorry Crothian!!</blockquote>
