Re: Changing thac0 to 100 die

I am using the pl12 code with the 128 bit and Oasis support. The only other
major patches I have used are the autoeq and the specialized guildmaster
code. Even with 34 levels I do not think the 20-die system is adequate. The
saving_throws are especially ridiculous.

Thanks,
Chuck
