Quite a bit better than the 55% on the d20. <br /><br />I'm a 3d6 proponent myself, the +2 is entirely unnecessary, the bell curve is worthy enough on its own.Van Noahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13001103794042256370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-19408509653461118532013-12-13T18:16:47.114-05:002013-12-13T18:16:47.114-05:00Wouldn't they be better served by reprinting /...Wouldn't they be better served by reprinting / reskinning one of the TSR Basic Editions?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17204485991779107198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-6425351704279480312013-12-13T09:24:17.222-05:002013-12-13T09:24:17.222-05:00I'll just leave this here for those interested...I'll just leave this here for those interested in introducing small children to RPG's...<br />http://www.rpgnow.com/product/121854/Attack-of-the-Furryons<br /><br />[/shameless plug]Tom Doolanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03451129317759266295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-24485646098570145522013-12-13T07:36:51.941-05:002013-12-13T07:36:51.941-05:00I think you are misunderstanding the text. The +5 ...I think you are misunderstanding the text. The +5 is added regardless of which dice roll method you use. Either roll 1d20 + 5 or 3d6+2+5.<br /><br />1d20 = 3d6+2<br /><br />Not really but close enough if you don't have funky dice.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08306086466457427941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-21156043105218115372013-12-13T06:52:25.272-05:002013-12-13T06:52:25.272-05:00My son read the books this was based on and loved ...My son read the books this was based on and loved them.
