Ok, thank you. I'll put my head down and keep at it.

Summaries are ok, copy-paste is not. Sorry, it’s a bit of extra work but it’ll keep GW’s attorneys away.

My primary goal was to speed up the resolution of critical effects, and therefore speed up or at the very least not further slow down combat as a whole. I split the tables up between spice effects (rolled doubles when wounds are > 0) and major criticals (incurred when damage is taken and wounds are ...

So I have split the criticals into 2 tables, a "minor critical hit" table for doubles (wounds above 0) and one for "earned" or "major" critical hits, when you've dropped your opponent's wounds below 0. I started out with minor critical hits, with the idea of keeping bookkeeping and math to a minimum...

Mine do. They are hurt by every extraneous roll and critically injured by inelegant game design.

What're the made of, salt pork?

Yes, they’re the wurst!

Not to take this off topic, and without having the rules in front of me here, but couldn't those three rolls be rolled together?

You could, but if your strike doesn’t generate a critical you’ve wasted 2 of those 3 rolls.

I’m such a sucker for stuff like this.

Wow, that is a lot of information to take in. My initial take was to simply update my old critical hit tables for 4e, but when I read the new critical section and saw how much they changed it from 1st/2nd edition, the amount of effort required made me pause. Each new table now has 20 entries, only o...

So I've been thinking for a while now about redoing the Critical Hits for 4e like I did for 2e (blunt, edged, arrows, firearms, etc) but the system has changed quite a bit. What does everyone make of the new critical system? It's one aspect of 4e I haven't heard a whole lot of debate about.

I've allowed all the basic files phpBB typically recognizes. 4mb maximum per attachment, max 6 attachments per post. It looks like there has to be a number of max allowed attachments per post, and I'm worried 0 will disallow attachments entirely.

There may be standalone thread icon packs for phpBB to replace the ones that came with the skin, I'm not sure. If anyone could point me to some, I'd be happy to try them out.

I like on the original how the artist started “Malthusius” out boldly and then quickly regretted it and stuffed the rest of the letters in before he ran out of space.

The companion volume sounds amazing.

I gotta ask (nitpick mode alert!) - why does the stars "stick" to my mouse cursor... but only above/beneath the Winds of Chaos logo (and not in the main space "to the right" of said logo)

Tzeentch works in mysterious ways ...

Just a curious question, is there somewhere that you can get hold of the "Restless Dead" campaign in these days? I am wondering because I have a guy who is GMing the "Enemy Within" for our group and who might appreciate to have a look at this campaign? I've never heard about it before and I don't t...

Is this what you're after?

I will look into it!

My two scenarios, Noblesse Oblige and Dead Ringer, can be found here: https://www.windsofchaos.com/?page_id=259 They're both low on Chaos and combat, and high on investigation. Campaign-wise, you might be able to flesh out or combine the scenarios or plot out some follow-up adventures with Jakob Cre...

Thanks, I like this style much better than the previous one.
