It would be helpful to me if someone could remember WHERE the Movement Maneuver "definitions" are at.
What I mean is, the MM Tables have headers for each catagory: Routine, Easy, Light, Medium, Hard, etc...
Somewhere in all the Rolemaster literature I remember actually seeing definitions or descriptions of what each of these Levels of difficulty actually entail as far as what it would it would take compared to the average person.
I remeber it might have had comparisons to apprentice or fully trained, or Olympic skills. I cant put my finger on it, but it was darn helpful to the GM. Helped to nail down the relativistic.
Can anyone help me out,
Eric the Red

If I'm not mistaken, they show up in a number of sources, depending on version also. . . .looking for stuff covering just about any instance, the "School of Hard Knocks" might be the best place to find info about difficulties for (just about) anything.

Cool, I'll check it out.
Thanks Bro,

To be honest, I'd be interested as well. It seems to me a bit weird that you'd need a somewhat "hard-to-find, minor companion" in order to help determine the difficulty of an action, rather than examples being in the core rules. For my part, I don't own the SoHK and the only references I can find about something close to a definition is in the RoCoIV for the "new difficulties for manoeuvres" (though I guess you can deduce things from the RoCoII's special modifiers for particular skills)

Yes I agree.
Although the advice that has heretofor given was very helpfull, which I will employ. It is not exactly what i was looking for. What I was after was a concise, very broad, general one time evaluation of what it would take. I know I saw it somewhere. If I ever do find it again I will post its location.
I believe that part of the Demise of Rolemaster was that it became so vast and varied. Its a shame. Thank God for RM Classic before they took the final plunge.
