wanted to mean that a +2 in Dex gives u a +1 in Ref, +1 in every skill based on Dex -and there is a lot-, +1 ranged attack, +1 in AC...
So its totally unbalanced...
don't wanna be insistant, though. |

| Personally, I just don't use Dungeons & Dragons for my Forgotten Realms games. I use HERO System instead. That solves all my D&D issues. :) |

Ofcourse no system is flawless...
Hero certainly has thier flaws, and ROLEMASTER is a great system but it has lots of flaws. One of the most flawless systems I have played is the OLD WARHAMMER FANTASY ROLEPLAY. What a great simple system.

It certainly was one of the best, I'll agree. I just can't seem to find the same feeling with the current Warhammer system though.

true, totally true.
mmm... an other problem with some spells.
what do u think about Telekinesie
well, imagine u are a 10th level sorcerer catsing this spell, that means that u can push 250 pounds of weapons, a simple longsword weighting 4 pounds...
so u can throw 62 longswords to your opponent, if u have enough longswords of course  .
well, just 62d8 |

now better, if u cast the spell self metamorph to be changed into a Firebolg (all ok, just a Large giant), then u cast some others spells, like haste, mage armor, shield, bull's strength, cat's grace and so on, and finally u end with the powerful Tenser's Transformation.
so u get a formidable machin of destruction with more than 42 in strenght (correct, no?)
well, its a bit too much, don't u think?
i mean, i used it when i played eilinel, but even the barbarain couldn't get so much strength than i had...
and yet, my little little Eilinel with her bloody 7 in strength...
i think its the biggest problem of DnD: the bigbillism |

I have a question. There are lethal organs in every body, and in humanoids they are more obvious if someone says that he or she wants to attack to the enemy's heart, head, sword wielding arm, leg or with arrow eye or any specific part of the body that can kill man if thet person isnot healed by magic, What rules can be performed?
Another question. If someone knows fighting with word he learns to prevent his opponents sword with his. Well there is an expertise skill but with proper training like drizzt's he can easily prevent that attack.My question is how can I define the circemstances?

if i remember well, there are some rules about that in the warrior companion, the basic rules are:
a decent malus to the roll
a body part spot
and a diability then for the victim
or kind of.
but that means to be able to spot the bodypart, to wait and concentrate and have special rules for every circunstance...
well, i personaly think that we shouldn't play the bodyparts -too much complexity and not really in the DnD mind-
but instead, u could improve ur critical range by spotting a long time.
or add some damage, like maximizing the dice roll.
or i don't know!
any idea? |
