Lots and lots and lots of attribute-rolling methods

#1 Post by Zhym »

I just came across this post, which discusses the pros and cons of the attribute-rolling methods in 1e, 2e, 2.5e, and 3e, plus more house methods than you can shake a Wand of Wonder at. It's long, but well worth a read, IMO:

Wow, I'll have to take some time to read that.
Reminds me a bit of A.D.D.I.C.T. and it's analysis of initiative!
--Ron--
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.
