Each time, I've figured that if the PC has skills, the player should make an ability check (d20 roll-under whichever stat), and if not, half the stat, round down.<br /><br />Then I ask the player if his character has skills, and the player always says something like "no, my character is a scoundrel adventurer with no education."<br /><br />But if we had a skill system, damn would they get pissed if they took all the wrong skills!Johnstonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10416183152348428399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6886547051691715141.post-52193964512421114992011-03-14T13:11:31.750-07:002011-03-14T13:11:31.750-07:00Between 1998 and 2003 I thought that the best game...Between 1998 and 2003 I thought that the best game rules is... no rules at all :D<br />But now, with different players, I play mainly new-school games :-(Albert R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09691712927512834666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6886547051691715141.post-37957464479593732342011-03-14T13:03:54.805-07:002011-03-14T13:03:54.805-07:00the less rules there are, the more "realistic...<em>the less rules there are, the more "realistic" and "immersive" the experience is, and it seemed really conductive to creating an emergent adventure story</em><br /><br />Yes!<br /><br /><em>When I was young vague skill systems frustrated me into nerdrage; nowadays I could care less for having defined mechanics for basket weaving.</em><br /><br />Hells Yes! :DAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13457050225967190052noreply@blogger.com
