What is the attack bonus for weapons?

Post by Messa »

I just got into Basic Fantasy and I'm really excited to play the Morgansfort campaign. I rolled a d8 that picked 7 of the pregenerated characters and, with my main character, that makes an adventuring party of eight. I'm also considering making randomly rolled back stories for the 7 pregenerated characters.

Although, I'm having a difficult time figuring out the Attack Bonus for weapons, as it's not listed in the Weapons section of the rules. Help would be very much appreciated. Thank you. 🙂

Attack bonus is not based on weapons, its based on class and level.

Page 46 of the rulebook is what you are looking for.

Thank you. 🙂

Would I add the attack bonus to damage rolls also?

Thanks! 😊

I'm writing down some noteworthy things about Morgansfort right now. 🙂 I can't wait to play the campaign! I drew the two beginning maps also. The first one (not the Western Lands one, but the one after) isn't exactly to scale though. 😅

Does anyone know where "To Hit" for PCs is mentioned in the BFRPG rulebook?

Is there a "To Hit" for player characters? Is it related to my PC's Hit Dice, or am I missing something?

Just to make sure I'm doing the combat right, since I'm new to Basic Fantasy. 🙂

"To Hit" is called Attack Bonus or AB, and is found on the table Dimirag refers to on page 46 of the rulebook.
