The way it is now, you only crit on a raw roll of 2 or 12. Adding +4 relative degree sounds good to me - anybody else have an opinion on this? > >Steffan, can you give us a hint on what you are thinking about different >scales?

Hmm - I posted this two days ago - did it never get through? It's true no one commented on it, but I thought other posts of mine at that time were being commented on. The subject had the word Scale in it, I hope, but I don't remember it precisely. Did anyone see this? -- - Steffan O'Sullivan sos@oz.plymouth.edu
