DP's & Big Daddy Monsters?
Am i imagining it or do epic monsters like Dragons, Ogres, Trolls never have DP's? I see it says that Fully Fledged NPC's do, but not monsters. Again i like the idea that monsters don't have DP's for speeds sake, but this leads to a wierd situation where only Fully Fledged NPC's can dodge, evade etc...

Re: Questions after first play session
Not sure, but I guess that you could do either, but treating a trap as Potential-Harm sounds sensible - but as your pools always refresh outside combat, unless the trap actually did Toughness damage you would be unharmed. Yes, traps deliver Potential-Harm. Some traps may bypass armor, or disallow c...

Re: Questions after first play session
More questions we remembered.
How should we deal with disarming and knockback/pushing in combat when using ERPS?

Re: Weapons: 1H or 2H?
Don't get me wrong, i love the idea that that using 2-H weapons or Duel Wielding cost you that Deflect DP, it makes complete sense! I just don't think the benefits offensively are proportionate to the loss defensively.

Re: Weapons: 1H or 2H?
Doesn't duel wielding suffer the same issue then? What real offensive benefit is there compared to losing an entire DP (Deflect)? Or are we missing something?

Re: Wait?
Don't forget to read the second part of my post.joela wrote:INTERESTING. Should I wait for a Revised, Updated or, gawds help me, a "ERPG 1.5" edition?
Even with the wrinkles it was still awesome fun.

Re: I just got the book, and...
Yah, we encountered almost all the same anomalies you did shocklee. I think ERPS is a great example of a great system unfortunately layed out in a not so easy to digest manner. Sometimes you really have to dig to find what you are looking for.
The good news is it plays really, really well!

Questions after first play session
We just played our first session of Eldritch, and love the system - it's the best I've ever seen for old-style dungeon crawling. But we do have a few questions about the rules - could someone please provide some clarifications? 1. On page 14: "His Specialization with the axe grants him +2 point...
