[Runequest] Site update & overcoming/resistance

Hard to say; in all the RQ games I ever saw, there was quite a bit of 
spirit combat, since spirits were a virtual necessity as a source of 
magic points, and those were a necessity for real magical potency.  I 
can't say how universal this was.

Well, to be bluntly honest, people who are so math phobic as to be 
unwilling to divide by two and round are more math phobic than I want 
to typically deal with in an RPG; they aren't liable to like 
modifiers and such either at that point.
