Ruling Ambient Light

Seeings how half concealment is a 20% miss chance, I guess that works. Personally I never liked half concealment being 20% and full being 50%. It just seems like there'd be a better way to phrase it. Something being "half-concealed" and a "50% miss chance" is just a natural assumption to make.

3.0 ran the spectrum from 10% to 50% but it was cut for simplicity.

I think heavy foilage still carries a 30% miss chance.

Concealment doesn't stack, does it? Like if you were in Light Undergrowth (20% miss chance) in shadowy conditions (20% miss chance); if you have half-concealment from one thing and half from something else, do you call that full concealment, or roll half-concealment twice, or just once?

"Characters with low-light vision can see outdoors on a moonlit night as well as they can during the day."

thank you

Which suggests that a character without low-light vision can see outdoors on a moonlit night half as well as they can during the day.

as always
