class=081194806-25052006>Interistingly enough, my group is experimenting with
some houserules around the armour. Okay, first let me admit that we don't really
bother with ENC, within reason that is. Basically we say if you want the
armour, wear it, but also don't expect you opponent to be disadvantaged by his
armour's ENC.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

class=081194806-25052006>1. An acrobat who relies on her agility and lack of
armour to jump, dodge and basically be faster than armoured foes. Because we
don't play enc, I kind of allow her additional moves etc so long as she can back
them up. Also opened an acrobatics skill for the purpose.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=081194806-25052006>2. Another idea we had is that fighting in armour is a
skill. As most people use armour, its considered a given. Thus is someone
specifically doens't use armour for the advantage of manoueverability we give
them a bonus to dodge or parry, just to make up for it else they will be hacked
to pieces against an armoured foe. Against an unarmoured foe the foe would
theoretically have the same advantages. Dunno, its flawed and prob has huge
holes in the logic, but we are experimenting with it anyway</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Our playtests of the previous MRQ system showed
that allowing any chance to avoid armor was disastrous for the target.
Pick location, yes, do extra damage, yes, but not ignore armor.</FONT></DIV>
