House Rules for Hit Location

[etherio]

For a fair analysys, we'd have to compare your data with data using the existing Hit Location rules and see how they differ. I don't know about anyone else, but that takes me some time. Especially since I have finals coming up.

The analysis I presented is a comparison. Re-read the text in the posts containing the data analysis, and you'll see my explanation of how the highlighted rows are the "averages" for rolling randomly on the tables in the core rules. Comprehensively analyzing the way in which the core rules' OCV modifier for targeting affects "average" multipliers would be very long-winded, because of the massive variability of CVs in play. However, I do not deny that targeting is more accessible with this variant. The very nature of this system obviously makes targeting a desired location easier, but I think the material I posted shows that it is not more lethal than randomly rolling hit location in the core rules.

BTW...

Thanks for the post. I hope you have the time to critique, for yea or for nay, when cramming's done. I'm lucky enough to be free of that pressure (for the time being at least); I completed my useless degree last year and am comfortably doing the same crap I could have done without the higher education.

Good luck on your finals, Raven. I've been there myself, and I feel for you.
