Lo all

I just finished this... Its a Descriptive Hit/Miss/Damage chart, PDF.
How to use:

Have a D30? you'll need one! :D

Okay, the first page are descriptive Misses, hits, hits on armor innefective armor hits, and fumble chart. You'll notice numbers on the side for the descriptive misses on the side of the page. The top portion is the type of weapon. For the fumbles its a simple percentage roll + othe revil dm modifiers, of course.

K, the second page is the fun one! Its the hit location,effect critical section. The hit location is friken huge... 30 locations for each main area. Use this location chart for regular descriptive hit rolls. To determine location, roll d6+d30. 1 on the d6=head, 2 torso, 3 right arm, 4 left arm, 5 left leg, 6 right leg. There are numbers on the side 1-30... just cross reference the two, and vola... you hit... something :D

Below the hit location is the effect. just find the weapon and cross ref the damage (numbers on the side) to determine the effect. I use the standard if you deal 20 damage to any area that its real, real bad. However you can modify it to suit your needs. :rolleyes:

Below the effect, are the fun crit location charts! Roll on these *only* if it is a true crit! (otherwise some of the location + plus crit doesn't make sense!) same as the location chart, cept its percentage plus handy, dandy d6 for location! some notes on the bottom, will help hopefully. And yes, I know its not perfect, but I will someday... hrm, yes someday, fix all the minor "bugs" in it. But for now, this should suit you guys just fine! Its in pdf so you can print it on a 11x17 sheet, just click on the fit to page (making sure you page is 11x17 for thouse who can print this big...)
okay? like it? let me know what you guys think!

:D

Heh heh... not a bad idea.

I probably wouldn't bother rolling (d30? Psh. ;)), but having lots of extra descriptions is always good. The better described a fight is, the more interesting it becomes. (Rather than "he hits you with his sword", of course... bleh).
