Rolemaster / Re: RMU - Impossible to Dodge Whilst Running ?
« Last post by Wolfwood on April 13, 2024, 01:08:32 AM »
As others have said, running full sprint does not really give a chance to dodge anything. Just look at Olympic short distance runners - there is no way they could suddenly change direction or do some other fancy moves at those speeds and not fall down and injure themselves. Their path is predictable - exactly what you do not want in melee.

My take on this is that in real life it is quite trivial to take a swing at somebody sprinting past you. Ranged attacks on somebody moving quickly is different ballpark, but melee attacks against a running target is not a big deal.

The runners movement mass mean it takes real effort for the runner to not be on spot where I am aiming. If the runner does a skill check that benefit from movement like acrobatics or jumping we can discuss if the penalty due to pace should apply, but for a dodge I really don't see why these should stack unless the runner has enough AP to pay for both things.

My RMFRP C&M has it p10, under the "Habitat" section.

Thanks, I was wondering. I guess they just forgot to include that information in RMFRP C&M.

As for number of books, maybe 12 is an exaggeration. But it's definitely more than 3. Maybe 6.

Deer: (f)-(—),(GIOZ),(—),(T)-2
A deer may be found in any climate but frigid ones, in any special location, in any water source location but glaciers/snowfields, tropical islets/reefs/atolls, oceans, or deserts, in any terrain, and locations with any kind of vegetation but tundras.
It's "easy" to meet one in any of the locations where it lives.

RMFRP also lists some codes next to the name of the creature in its individual listing. I... have no idea what those mean, and can't find any explanation in C&M.



What? You mean you can't easily parse out these simple codes like those for the Deer here:

Deer: (f)-(—),(GIOZ),(—),(T)-2;

/joking. Those were just ridiculous.

I think they might be copied from the Environment Codes in Creatures and Treasures I (RM2), p. 6.

Now that said, I would have loved to toss the big tables and just have a complete stat block for every creature. But that would have been a twelve volume set or would have required drastically cutting the number of creatures.

Not sure it would blow out to 12 volumes.   But I'd be happy with a 3 volume set with the monsters being standalone.

I may not speak for all here ;-)
