Osric retroclone ruleset

[rule of three]

https://oberoten.dyndns.org/fgwiki/index.php/OSRIC

Done and posted.

What can I say? I am lazy when I don't know what a ruleset is and research seems like... work?

Thanks but you are faster than me.

Wiki description updated.

[rule of three]

New update will make a more clear distinction between base to hit score and modifiers for those who prefer to use tables :

So attacks may appear as :
"5 needed to hit AC 0 and the character score : " " 10"

or
"7 needed to hit AC 0 and the character score : " 10+2""

Version 1.1

Major Update (You can in fact name it version 2 !)

VERSION 1.1
OSRIC.zip

DESCRIPTION AND MANUAL (PDF)
MANUAL.pdf


MODULES ( work in progress ) : spells will be finish soon, not monsters
monsters.mod
Spells.mod


This version corrects bugs signaled but not the "destry weapon bug" ! I repeat : do not try to destry weapons on character's sheet, it will crash or block FGII.

You can now write monster's attack as a simple : Claw (1d8)
(and not claw +0 (1d8) which was a legacy of the d20ruleset.

I've also increase the flexibility of the text's attacks : the player rolls dice, add his bonus and you only have to compare with your table (or with the score displayed by FG )

All of this is described in the pdf ( or to be more precise, I've try to explain how to use them, english is not my first langage as you can imagine )


Feel free to give advices and bugs notices (some new functionnalities were previous demands from some peoples)

See the first post : I don't change the name, only the files. You can view the version you've downloaded in the version.txt (or versions.txt). This file is with the .xml files.
