<r>I played 1E for a LONG time after 2E came out (I wasn't going to switch)....To be fair, I also played a lot of Rolemaster too, but didn't switch to 2E until I joined a group in about '98 or '99. Then I just bought the CD versions of the rules. I never really liked 2E much.<br/> <br/> I did (and d...

I was speaking of not limiting it to d6-type hitdice.

Any idea which Crusader spoke of the class-blending. This sounds like a much more elegant solution.

How would you handle damage (i.e. which weapon hits)?

Perhaps values that are divisible by three are the off-handed weapon (e.g. 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, ....).

<r>Lately, I've been thinking about the idea that the use of two weapons might not actually mean "more attacks", but rather "better attacks". The use of a second weapon might be focused on "creating a better opening" or "increasing the number of sharp bits for your opponent to worry about". How abou...

I need to think on this...

<r>The powergamer in me loves this idea. That doesn't make it good or bad, but that's the part of me that loves it. The more tactical you make your game, the more this is so. The more you focus on player skill (as opposed to character skill), the more this is so. Take it from me---I love Rolemaster ...

This is how I handle CD.

<r>Yep, D&D 3.0 with some additions for 3.5. Since some of the changes to spells for 3.5 drastically altered durations and the strategy for using spells (i.e., when you cast them) we opted to not adopt most of the changes. However, we do add in the odd Feat/PrC/Spell/Critter/etc. from 3.5<br/> _...

DangerDwarf wrote: One of my dislikes with the higher level C&C games is the lack of extra damage output by some of the non-spellcasting classes. This can lead to lengthy combats in which the party just whittles away an increasing amount of HP's. Magic items can help offset this but it still se...

Very nifty (both of you).
