- I felt that the skills listed needed formatting better.
Looking through the photos, it very much looks like all these issues have been emphatically resolved. And there's even what looks like some sort of personality profiling too, which is a pleasant bonus! Definitely, a case of getting back to Basic!  |
My biggest rule gripe (beside the idiotic skills "head butt" and "kick" with 1d6 damage) about CoC has been that a character has only a parry OR an attack per turn, but not both. (exception swords and -oids AFAIR) This sounded very "un-BRP" and I never used it.
