I've noticed many times and have tried to figure it out but the answer is not comeing so the question must come now. In all of the second edition rules games they had THAC0 but now they have attack bonuses or something. How do you work with them? And how do you find out what your chances of hitting are? They dont have the negative numbers now so this is rather confusing for me.

thanx

Roll a D20 and add your attack bonuses. If it's greater than or equal to your opponents Armor class you hit, if it's lower you miss. Much easier than THACO.

Concise to the point of brevity.......this simply couldn't be worded any better!

THACO meant "To Hit Armor Class 0"
