Mjollnir Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 So, if I roll an 01 then that's a Catastrophic Failure/Marginal Success and if I roll 100, That's an Extraordinary Success/Marginal Failure? That's completely against all the D100 systems that I use (RQ/BRP/Legend). Two opponents, A and B, with skills of 60% and 65%, the first rolls 10, the second 70, what would be the result under your table? I'm a new convert to Legend, having recently discarded my own homemade system in favor of it. It too used BRP-like percentile skills, and I recently made that chart up as an optional/alternate rule, but the more I thought about it, the more I began to like it. So I thought I'd get opinions on it (for BRP) from veteran BRP players. I know that's not how it's done btb, but I think the methods I described may be at least as easy/intuitive/realistic, if not moreso. As to your example, I imagined the chart to be more for descriptive, non-combat tasks. Whereas the "Criticals divisible by 10" rule was intended for combat rolls. Anyway, using the chart, A would score a marginal success, while B would get a moderate failure. If I were using the other "divisible by 10" rule for combat, A would score a critical hit and B would fumble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Questbird Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I really like your method Questbird, it's really simple and avoids calculations and tables! I'm glad you like it. It is good if you dislike maths. However it can be hard to adopt if you are already used to a different method of calculation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_octogono Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Oh, I have no issue with maths, but some players have, or take more time than I'm confortable with. It is also a good alternative for some anti BRP guys who think it's too grainy and has too many calculations. Quote Check my Lobo Blanco - Elric RPG (now in english!)
