My system fulfills 2 basic criteria that the Shadow Chasers/Polyhedron/d20 Modern VP/WP system doesn't:1) I don't want characters to get "healthier" as they gain levels. If their stats go up and thus raise VP or WP, that's fine, but I don't want either VP or WP to increase with character level. 2) I want criticals to be deadly, so I want to keep the multipliers. Does this mean that the Improved Crit feat and keen weapons are much better in this system? Yes. That's fine by me. When 2 people face off with katana, I want there to be a chance that one or both will die from one good hit.---Also, I'm pondering whether VP should be based on Dex, or on Con. I'm almost thinking Con score + Dex modifier. How does that sound? Represents ability to take minor hits, with a nod to evasive ability to make wounds less serious.</blockquote>
