So I've been hearing about those lately. You know the stories.
Epic pirate battle, sinking ship, guy rolls a 1 and nails his foot to the floor with an arrow, gets dragged under with the ship and drowns. Then there's Sameo's story, I won't try to recap it because I could never do justice to its utter glory...
Anyway, I've been toying with the idea of a critical miss table. What I did before was basically laugh at the players and exaggerate the description of how bad they fail, but no actual consequences stat-wise.
I've been looking around but I think some of the results I found may be a bit... broken.
So what do you use? What do you recommend?
