Also, if stats can't start below 0, then the Elf has exactly one stat combination possible. He has to spend his 10 points on the two stats that start at -5, to get them to zero.

The Goblin and Dwarf have more possibilities but they're in sort of the same boat.

What if you choose zero speed? Does that mean you can't move anywhere?

The human bonus is meant to represent how in most other games humans are the 'exells at nothing, but can do most things' race.
HUMAN CHARACTERS: you do not get 20 points, only +5 (now), to choose as you see fit.please modify your characters accordingly.
I understood you were going with that outlook for Humans, but (in my opinion), you're implementing it wrong. Currently, you're giving humans a 50% extra stats without any sort of penalty, whereas the other races gets an equal (or almost equal) penalty for every bonus they receive. In this way, humans can be as strong as a goblin, and at the same time have a lot more brains than them. In short: You're making humans better than everyone else, which was far from what you had intended.

I would have given humans no bonus to stats, no penalties to stats, and no extra stat points. BUT, this is your game, so i can't tell you what to do. I can only tell you to consider it.

...and yeah, i guess i'm still kinda naggy even if you DID try to do something about it. I'll stop from now, and leave it in your hands.

oops...
even with a -5 modifier your stats cannot go below zero.
changing the penalty modifiers now to -5 max total- should make it easier.
to balance out the humans they must have -5 to penalties of their choice.
thanks for the advice myroc.
also 0 speed just means you can only do 1 thing per turn.

EDIT ONCE AGAIN: gonna stop today and take some time to hash out the rules ect.-this was done on the fly, everything laid down in about 5 minutes flat....

A crime! I must investigate, and ask the good citizens to aid my investigation, seeing as how I currently appear to lack reinforcements!
