Thanks guys. Yeah after I saw most of the NPC stats higher than what my point builds were I went up to 90. Not that I find stats overly important in the game or do I need it to be very balanced. Some NPCs should be better.

A long time ago I use to love the old way to just roll your stats down the line. Like my grandfather would say "That's how we did and it was fine and we were happy." But as I have grown older I have learned to love point buy even more. Now I'm starting to prep a one-shot Legend game so I need to make some pre-gens and I start to use the point buy "80 points". This number is utilized in RQII, Legend, and RQ6. Where did this number "80" come from? I noticed the majority of human npc stat blocks are over 80, I think 1 or 2 over 90 points, but mostly in the 87-90 range. So why 80? I realize it's my prerogative to build whatever I want, but I was just wondering if anyone knew the reason behind this.

I could be wrong but wasn't the Land of Samurai for MRQI and the Runequest II version was not released. I would think the update to legend might be better, but for a dollar might as well see if you like it.

Thank you. I am liking RQ6 so far, but I liked MRQII as well. It's seems more familiar than different.

Has anyone figured out what the difference is? It's been a while since I read Legend, but other than a few name changes (Luck Points/Hero Points) and a new Magic I am failing to see much difference at all.
