How does THAC0 work?

How does THAC0 work?

is this that taimanin asagi elf game?

It doesn't.

...

No, it's a upcoming Eroge but you aren't totally wrong, the artist is the same as the Taimanin Yukikaze spin-off.

more like THIC0

>Taimanin Asagi elf.
If you have call it that way then Taimanin Yukikaze Elf would fit better, even then it wouldn't be right from what the previews show the game seems to be vanilla harem themed, not rape and netorare galore like Yukikaze

So, this thread belongs on /h/?

>Aoi Nagisa's art
>Elves
>Brown girls
>Harem

March 31th can't come soon enough.

To Hit Armor Class 0
THAC0 10 means you need to roll a 10 to land a hit.

Also

Honestly I can't make sense of AC
I always thought it meant that wearing plate armor would make you harder to deal damage, BUT damage reduction exists in D&D, but instead armor just changes AC. Dexterity also increases AC
So basically wearing heavy armor makes you dodge a lot as opposed to wearing no armor which makes you slow as shit???

No, it's a video game so it's Sup Forums.

Heavy armor can deflect blows.
Should've just been damage reduction, but this isn't entirely idiotic.

Yes, and porn movies are are getting talked about on Sup Forums all the time.

I demand Snu-Snu!

that's right
have you been to Sup Forums

HOLY FUCK
that armor must have an AC rating of like 25

...

I'm in the brazillian ass-muncher vol. 3 thread right now, talking about the intricate camera-work and stellar direction.

Armor Class is the way it is because DnD evolved from a tactical wargame where Damage Reduction would slow gameplay down, so Armor is just another modifier on your passive ability to be harder to hit, in exchange for a slower movement speed.

As DnD evolved and grew, things like DR appeared. But they didn't replace armor. Because AC is one of DnDs sacred cows. It's a gameplay function that can't be removed. What does armor do? Give you AC. What's AC? How hard you are to hit.

DnD Derivatives like Fantasycraft switch up the formula, where AC is derived entirely from speed and reflexes and etc, while armor is a detriment to your AC (making you easier to get hit) but giving you Damage Reduction (So you take less when you do get hit)
Long story short, if there's ever a weird part of DnD that just doesn't make sense, just tell yourself "It's probably there because a grognard would whine if it got fixed"

Will this be an actual game or the usual boring VN?
I'd kill for a proper RPG with this guy's art.

AC doesn't necessarily mean Armor, it's just how hard you are to hit. High DEX means you dodge a lot and are hard to hit, but when you wear heavier armor you forfeit your ability to dodge and instead just deflect blows with your hard armor and shield.

that's cute

To Hit Armor Class 0. The number you need to roll at or over to hit someone with neutral Armor Class rating.

The confusing part is that the armor class is SUBTRACTED from your THAC0 to create the target number. You just flip their Armor Class, add it to your THAC0, and that is the number you need to roll over.

The base armor class is in AD&D 10, and gets lower as you equip armor and get more agile. So if you are just starting out, your THAC0 is in the ranges of 20, and subtracting a naked enemy AC from it will bring it to 10, which is close to a 50/50 roll.
