It has a lot of things in common with this approach...I'm always coming up with permutations, but I'll post what I have at the moment. It's a bit piecemeal, so bear with me.Attack = BAB + Size + Dex + Misc Mods/RangeDefense = 10 + Size + Dex + Armor DefenseToughness = Size + Con mod + Armor ProtectionWeapons have a damage rating, like True20, and have modified criticals (depending on the weapon) - so a longsword is a 3 (4/+2) - meaning you take 3+Str mod as your base damage, and for each 4 over the target's defense, you add 2 damage. A longbow is a 5 (5/+3) [it has a mechanical +2 strength bonus] and a great axe would be a 5 (5/+5). I intend to have a strength penalty to hit if you cannot match the weapon's base damage - meaning a 16 strength (+3) can weild a longsword with no penalty, but a 14 strength (+2) would have a -1.Rolling your attack and adding your critical damage will give you the damage. The defender rolls Toughness + d20 DC 15+damage. I've redfined some terms - they're marked by asterisks. Stun Conditions are dazed (weak), stunned (moderate), and knocked out (strong) - just like charm effects in EoM. Making the stun save will result in the weaker effect. Making the stun save by 5+ will negate it completely. All Stun saves are Fortitude DC10 + wound modifiers.If the roll is successful, no damage is taken. Doubling up a result will go to the next category. (An injured warrior receiving another injured result will become critically injured).If the roll fails, weak stun (dazed* = flatfooted for one round - lose dex, no AoO)If the roll fails by 5, bruised (-2 penalty to toughness, saves & weak stun)If the roll fails by 10, injured (-4 penalty, moderate stun, fatigued)If the roll fails by 15, critical (-8 penalty, strong stun, exhausted)If the roll fails by 20, mortal (-16 penalty, strong stun, disabled - any strenuous action requires a new save DC15).If the roll fails by 25, dead.I also do a post combat trauma save - Fort DC 20 + wound mods:Fail: WindedFail 5+: Fatigued. Mortal wounds reroll if not resting.Fail 10+: Exhausted. Critical and mortal wounds reroll if not resting.Fail 15+: Unconscious. Critical and mortal wounds roll in 1d6 hours.Fail 25+: Dead</blockquote>
