Battlecards
Here's a method I've been using for awhile, I've found that I like it
better.. a lot better.. It still uses the cards for the units and
terrain, only the method of deciding who wins the battles is diffrent..
Normally, you'd shuffle the nine-war cards to determine who wins, but with
this method, you just need one dice.. Roll a ten-sider (d10) and then consult
the following chart..
d10 (Battle Dice)
| Rolled | -3 | -2 | -1 | 0 | +1 | +2 | +3 |
| 1 | - | - | - | - | - | - | - |
| 2 | - | - | - | - | - | - | H |
| 3 | - | - | - | - | F | H | H |
| 4 | - | F | - | F | H | H | H |
| 5 | F | F | F | H | H | H | H |
| 6 | F | F | H | H | H | H | R |
| 7 | F | H | H | H | H | H | R |
| 8 | H | H | H | H | R | R | D |
| 9 | H | H | H | R | D | D | D |
| 10 | * | * | * | * | * | * | * |
Morale checks were the one part of the system I hated the most. If you
want to, you could resolve them with a six sided dice, needing a 1-2 if
you've only got one icon, a 1-4 if you've got two icons, and no roll required
if you've got all three.
I find that lacking though.. No unit should be IMMUNE to morale. If you
agree with me, use the d8 method..
d8 (Morale)
| ICONS | TARGET NUMBER |
| One Icon | 1-2 |
| Two Icons | 1-4 |
| Three Icons | 1-6 |
This means that on a roll of 7-8, you ALWAYS fail..
