    Armour Qu Penalties for some PCs but not other?

    Two of my PCs have near identical characters - both men of Rohan. One is a Rogue, the other a Ranger. Both bought +5 Chain shirts and equipped them.

    Aldstone has no Qu penalty - Aldstan Cbt.PNG

    Folnere has the correct Qu penalty of -5 - Folnere Cmt.PNG

    I have tried adjusting the Qu penalty in the item but no value carries to the character sheet.

    The other PC Melcan cbt.PNG has the correct penalty.

    Any pointers as to what I've done wrong?

    Thanks - Rainbird

    Hi Rainbird,

    I don't think you are doing anything wrong. My guess is the character without the quickness penalty has a strength bonus that is offsetting the quickness penalty. The strength bonus is used to reduce the encumbrance penalty and anything left over is used to reduce the quickness penalty. It is to match Character Law 10.5 in the Encumbrance section on page 142 where it talks about Strength bonus. Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Thanks,
    Dakadin

    Thanks (again) Dakadin,

    I've played about with the PCs inventory and that has changed the penalties.

    That's another rule I missed back in the 80s/90s!

    I missed it also. Someone pointed it out a while back so I included it.

    And I really enjoyed that game.

    Back when FGCon was still single digits.
