Ascending vs. Descending Armor Class

[tpj]

As this is a B/X game, the standard method is to use Descending Armor Class (DAC) and a To-Hit Table (THAC0). However, OSE does provide optional rules for using Ascending Armor Class (AAC) with to-hit bonuses instead.

Since this is a PbP game and I'm a proponent of streamlining things, I'd normally favor using AAC as it's faster and you don't have to refer to a table constantly. But I figured I'd instead leave it up to player preference and so I'm going to use a poll instead to decide.

AAC is fine.

I have no real opinion. However, if it makes things more streamlined, AAC will be fine.

IMHO, Ascending vs Descending is 'po-tay-to' vs 'po-tah-to'.

Looks like AAC it is then!

I voted just to make myself feel included

Personally I'm all for AAC.
