Now that I have the core book, Glorantha, and MC, this one is next on the list. Can't wait for a preview. :D

I considered that option, but surely we don't want to say: A. Cha 3-6, especially not well-rounded characters. B. Cha 7-12, average characters, no particular penalties or advantages at being well-rounded. C. Cha 13-18, get to be well-rounded characters. Yeah, nothing is stopping the lower Cha...

Sorry, I meant was it considered to use Cha the way Int was used with the IR, not to use Int in giving bonus IRs. That is, instead of having any modifier to the number of IR rolls at all, a character would get either: A. Average of Int and Cha added to the d100 roll, or B. Just add Int and Cha...

From a weapon simulation perspective (and assuming that the sim persective has something useful to say here), delay with the express intention of baiting your opponent into leaving themselves open during an attack, is a good tactic except in these two situations. (There may be more, but it is...

Or simply lower every heroic ability stat requirement by some amount that makes sense in your context--maybe -3 to -5 across the board. I found this approach worked well for feat prereqs in d20 games, for the simple reason that I was keeping the prereq, but not really changing anything else...

Assuming a person deliberately fights with a single weapon (i.e. has the 1 H only style), then they probably fight in something approaching a fencing stance, with off-hand turned away from the opponent to present a smaller profile. This suggests a modest bonus to parry or evade (or both), but...

Splitting the difference between modeling the small differences versus the in-game reasons versus the character-driven reasons, doesn't the nature of the cults and communities already handle all of that somewhat? That is, if Penelope comes from a culture that uses the sling and Felipe comes...
