[QUOTE="Daermon, post: 2746172, member: 29020"] If you're going to sunder/damage armor, here are my recommendations on making life easier (re: fair) towards your players: Give your players a Defense modifier from 1/3 to 1/2 of BAB. I prefer using the 1/2 model myself. So a level 20 Fighter would have a +10 Defense (for a total of +20 before modifiers). Negate this bonus if they're wearing medium or heavy/superheavy armor. This aids in adding a sense of 'realism', as your dexterous Rogue with leather armor is nearly as hard to hit as the Fighter with plate and shield. Allow for 'blocking'. Let your players roll their full BAB, plus all modifiers, in place of an attack. The next creature to attack them must score higher than the character's AC or attack roll, whichever is higher. Let this be a Standard action and include a few Feats to allow for blocking multiple opponents, making it Move Equivalent, et cetera. [/QUOTE]
