<t>I think THAC0 is less intuitive than a BtH is and this goes a step further when we consider how Acs worked with both systems, mainly people get an easier time seeing a target number and rolling to beat it (adding bonuses) then they have by having a base number, subtract or add a number due to a d...

<t>pactmaster,<br/> <br/> I like Midnight, which is a settign where crafting and survival are core ideas, a skill system could be the best way to make use of that aspect of the setting, and core C&C while great lacks the fitting piece for this in particular.<br/> <br/> just to let you know why I...

<t>I actually think BtH is fairly easy on newbies and the Ac system C&C uses is as well, Thac0 and AD&D AC require a bit more thought than C&C requires, so newbies will often wonder why the hell lower is better for AC, how come I want a -10 but not a 10 on Ac and so on.<br/> <br/> Really...

<t>Serleran said well with the Training part, but I also want it to encompass daily work on an area. Then I wanted some other things, like different spellcasting system, though it need not be cumbersome and alien to the spells we already have (much like Midnight heh).<br/> <br/> A skill system would...

<r>True enough. I don't think i could move back to ie anymore heh. But I did find a good extension for free for those using IE7, it is called IEPro, has mouse gestures, adblocking, reopens closed tabs and a lot more.<br/> <URL url="http://www.ie7pro.com/">http://www.ie7pro.com/</URL><br/> __________...

Heh, glad to hear it is working then serl, I though it could also be a faulty installation, had one once, so I know what i am talking about myself. As to 2K, it is a great system indeed, the old PC my brother has runs with it, or did, before his motherboard died a month or two ago. Julian Grimm wrot...

Gnostic Gnoll wrote: This line of thinking is also something of a 3.5ism. Monsters and NPCs do not necessarily need ability scores if the primes are split up; it would simply be a matter of deciding on a finer basis where the primes go. Their bonuses would still be determined by their hit dice, as ...

<t>See, I think it would certainly not be as bad, since I have kind of gone overboard, but it would certainly make monsters a lot harder to remember, and when it comes down to the general groupings of monsters, you need not have overly complex rules for them, for they will not be around longer than ...

<t>Whenever i get a C&C game it will either be Midnight or a Homebrew, but I don't have one, so it will probably come down to midnight.<br/> _________________<br/> "We cannot live only for ourselves.

<t>Know what, you are actually right. That is why any setting without any sort of common tongue ends up with one anyway..<br/> _________________<br/> "We cannot live only for ourselves.

<t>If Monsters followed the same set of rules that PCs did it would not simply be a matter of adding attributes, we would then have to define primes, then we would have to add attribute bonuses to saves, then come attacks, then damage, then check bonuses.<br/> <br/> After that you have to redefine w...

<t>I think that is pretty much what I answered there, though attaching a xp cost for languages above the modifier would work well too. My favorite setting is midnight, there we have 3 different human races and 3 different elven races, dwarves are behind with two main groups, the kurgun, living mostl...

<t>Starting languages equal to Int modifier plus mother tongue if any special traning grants other languages those are in addition to that number. A character may leave slots unused to later learn a language during gameplay.<br/> <br/> Learning above that number is possible though, Gms call.<br/> __...

<t>When I spoke earlier on the thread, I had the same idea I have now, the set of mechanics for any GM run Character is welcome to be simpler and easier than those given for the PCs, the difference in primes, even for those it bothers, need not be a problem, as you can wing changes as needed.<br/> <...

<t>Heh, I hear on NoScript, but if you disable and for some reason it was the cause I can also say the guy behind it is great at correcting issues, so you would not have to stay without it for long.<br/> <br/> the good part of Update notifier is that it can rest on the top right of the browser and t...

<t>Well, if I am not having issues despite that list of add-ons you shouldn't have any as well, I also used the same adblock and the filterset G Updater until recently (about two weeks ago) so those should not give you any trouble as well.

<t>I really doubt it, it is more likely to have to do with extensions or the installation failing some process but not warning him.

<t>Well, I have been using FF 2.0.0.3 myself and have not experienced a single crash. I actually use quite a few extensions as well, so it must not simply be a FF issue, any extensions you use?
