|According to one rumor I heard today (Thomas, are you out there
still with
|that goofy super-pager?), "3D" is going to be some MASSIVE
changes. Can we
|say "No THACO?" Yes boys and girls...I thought we could...

k, it is not exactly that there is no THAC0 anymore, it is just
called something else but is essentially the same thing.
according to the playtest rules i had from last october the
method is called a Difficulty Class (DC) and it is equivalent to
the Target Number in Shadowrun. for an attack roll the DC would
be the opponent's armour class. get more than the DC and your
action suceeds.
