Possible simplifications?

Postby Syrus » Fri Jul 21, 2006 3:15 pm

In the spirit of keeping the rules simple, I think the language used should also be simple. Examples:
3.2.2.3. Class 3 (thrusting) Weapons wielded one-handed cause one hit of damage to an unarmored Target Area. Class 3 Weapons also cause two hits of damage when wielded two-handed against a Target Area, ignoring any Armor the Target Area may have. If the Target Area is armored, the Weapon must be wielded two-handed to cause damage to the Target Area. A one-handed strike causes no injury to an Armored Target Area.
3.6.4. Combatants with Missile Weapons (Type 4, bow/arrows) may not initiate Grapples or be Grappled.


3.2.2.3 could read "Class 3 (thrusting) Weapons cause one hit of damage to a Target Area. Class 3 Weapons ignore any Armor the Target Area may have when wielded with both hands. A one-handed strike causes no injury to an Armored Target Area.
3.6.4 could read "Combatants with Bows, arrows or other arching equipment may not initiate Grapples or be Grappled.

These suggestions come from the fact that rule questions have come up on these subjects, and I feel that the rules themselves are solid, but the language can, and does at times, be misleading.
