Behold the gloriously brutal critical hit table from Arduin Grimoire! Prostrate yourself before its greatness.
I had almost forgotten about Arduin until I stumbled on the delightfully brutal crit table. This is from 1977 for those of you who don't know Arduin, which is its own great piece of gaming history from the David A. Hargrave.
"Guts ripped out. 20% chance of tangling feet, die in 1-10 minutes" <- tangled in your own guts! Not enough to just die horribly in 1-10 minutes
I somehow don't have any of the Arduin books in my collection, something I need to correct. Emperor's Choice has the rights and has reprints of some of the old stuff, like this boxed set awesomeness from Emperors Choice Games.
