Re: AWMBI - Discussion
Okay, first off: Phoenix is absolutely right, and he beat me to saying so. now, on to the last post you made, RJ.
Because I love to surprise you. I felt that not seeing things such as 'numbers' might enhance the experience, make it seem more real.
then please, PLEASE say so, you were making me feel like you were avoiding my questions cause you thought i was stupid.
I have 5 dexterity and 5 brawling. I roll an offensive roll of 5
Okay, so theres a total of ten points worth of stats/skills, five each, giving a roll of 5. sorta wierd, but i can figure that out. Until this...
You have 3 dexterity and no acrobatics. You roll a defensive roll of 8
so i have a total of three stat/skills, and i end up five over that total, when you end up half?
My attack hits, with two levels of success.
But i have a higher roll, how does that work?
Based on the hand to hand attack formula
D4 x (STR + 1)
With 5 strength, I do 12 damage.
But, what if I somehow roll eight levels of success?
With 5 strength, I do 30 damage.
How bout one level?
With 5 strength, I do 12 damage.
okay, this is the first mention of strength in the entire post, several questions here.
1)What are levels of success, how are they determined?
2)i assume 8 levels f success are if you max on a d4 roll in your formula above, as a max potential kind of thing, but the math doesnt sort itself out any way i can tell.
3)Speaking of fuzzy math, how are you determining damage? both one and two successes deal 12 damage, and eight successes fails to do even three times that much, despite the fact that it's four times over the next highest successes?
You don't like my system?
I am having troubles trusting how it works is all, which is why i'm asking this.
