New way to play AD&D! - Page 2

Rikard_OHF · 03-09-2002, 04:17 AM

Str - Bankpress
Dex - Throwing a ball in a bucket from distance, do a reaction test combine the results
Con - Walk and see when ur tired, drink till you get drunk (love this one) combine results

Int - sazzies idea (gives me int 18

)
Wis - let other judge for that
Cha - same here

Yeah for Charisma you could do looks and the overall popularity or somethin like that..

I tried this many years ago using the old 1st edition rules. STR, as you say, is obvious. For INT I took the player's IQ, divided by 10, and rounded. For the other 4 stats I had each player write down what he thought they should be along with comments explaining why, then had the others do an anonymous vote on what they thought the stats should be. The average of each stat was the final score.

I get to play Pen&Paper for the first time today. I'm gonna be the dungeon master. (We're all rookies, and I *kinda* know what to do.) So i'll definitely think about using some of these.

Ive never played P&P b4 is it as good as the games??

GEEK · 03-09-2002, 10:41 PM

PnP is way better then the CRPG's because it has no limitations that the comp. ones do. If you have no imagination though you may think otherwise.

Only problem is grumpy DM's who do very evil stuff to steal your hard earned (i mean it's hard finding such a thing on a dead person) Sickle of Rust

and that was quite the AD&D game we had!
Check out these stats!

Glorfindel · 03-11-2002, 01:41 AM

So P&P is pretty well the same as the RPing we do here on IW except with dies and wat not??
