When a character tries to hit, a random number between 1 and 20 is generated, thaco, modifiers, and such are applied to the roll, and then it is checked against the opponants ac to see if it hit. However, if the unmodified random number was a 1, it is an automatic miss...(the best warriors still miss sometimes), and a 20 is always a hit (Peasants drag the knights off their horses). level two cleric would hit a well armored knight only on a natural 20 (1 in 20 odds) [...] > I wish to include the players stats, luck and situation etc. Already been done...besides situation [...] > some code in > fight.c which checks the players level against the dam of the > weapon before > calculating the fight stuff and then calculating bassed on the > result( My > preffered method ) a really high level weapon may have low damage but high bonuses to stats or hit/damroll, this system would not take that into account.
