[Runequest] [SPAM] Re: Ow being hit with a sword hurts

[Tom Cantine]

I have used this for fumbles and crits: If both d10s come up even and 
the same. So, 22, 44, 66, 88 and 00.

It has the benefit of restricting criticals to only those characters 
who actually have a 22% or better chance of success. I always found it 
a little odd that the 5% skill guy would almost never hit, but it was 
usually a critical if he did.
