Im wanting to spice things up for the players in my game that are long time D&D players by changing the combat rules slightly and making Damage to them and thier AC totaly govenred during play by me, behind the sceanes.

I really like the AC/DR split of armor defnece given in UA. And am thinking of also adding another varient either Conversion so a suit of full plate would give +4 AC, 4/- DR & 4 Subdual conversion. I like this rule becuase players would drop due to KO's more than drop below 0 due to only lethal wounds and then bleed out. OR use AC/DR with VP/WP as it makes comabt more excitiing meaning players take more knocks from less serious blows.

So any advice form pepople who use these rules?
