--- End quote ---

Does it count if you know what Thac0 is from BG1?

Around my second play through I even realized how it worked, about in the same instant that I realized that it was a "0" not an "o".

yellowfoliage:
It was never so much an issue that THAC0 is difficult as it was that it's counterintuitive. For somebody who has never played a PnP game (or BG or the first NWN or Torment blah blah) it tends to make sense that a higher armor class is better. Of course, when I was a socially isolated high school geek I defended THAC0 and all the other nonsensical bullshit that came with earlier D&D editions to the death because it meant I could feel like I was better than those sorry know-nothings playing their blasphemous new systems, but I now understand why they did away with it.

glyphic:
Talk like this is why people have to pay girls to participate.

Coward:
At least it's not Warhammer.

Beneath my snarky pinko liberal exterior I'm a bit of a closet greenskin.
