Get a new pillow..sleep on it at night. In the morning place the pillow in the closet and put the old pillow back on the bed for the cat to sleep in. Or move the old pillow and see if it is that spot or just the pillow the cat likes

Mmm...I think any damage dealing spell should have a chance at a critical. Have the caster roll a d20 and if he gets a 20, he gets the critical.

I do this already in any spell that is missle in nature. magic missle, fireball, lightning bolt etc. makes the wizards happy heh

Okay so you are shooting for something like early crits would be flesh wounds but as the creature weakens(for whatever reason) the criticals would possibly become bigger.

since my damage curve does not go up as I level nearly as fast as my base to hit curve

<t>With Str being the melee stat in CnC it makes sense to just use that instead of trying to use str and/or dex.<br/> <br/> However I am not sure you can easily use a Siege check to determine location. As what would that tell you? the system as set up uses results of 1/2 Con, 1/2 to = Con, and > Con...

the firearms do a lot of damage but then it takes 3 rounds to reload one. So it kinda averages out I think. Kind of frontloads the damage curve in a fight. I am considering adding them in two my game. Not totally sure but I might try it.
