Everyone is more or less spot on. Also, ever since you fucking reckt that commisar, I've thought of a way to balance the system because stacking bonuses are OP as fuck.

Combat: Having a weapon, no matter how good or shitty, is +1 to attacks. Shitty weapons have a chance to break if you roll natural 3 or less. Good weapons usually have some other benefit.

Having two weapons and dual weilding will not give +2. All it allows is to reroll when you roll a natural one. Also, if you ever get disarmed, you still have your secondary weapon.

Rolling a natural one will cause that weapon to break. If you rerolla and STILL get a one then your secondary weapon breaks.

Defense: You roll against your opponent. If they roll higher than you, you take Damage. If they roll lower, then the attack is deflected. If the enemy rolls a natural 6 and hits, you get two Damage. If you roll a natural 6, you can counter attack.

Armor gives +1 to rolls. Same as weapons. If you roll a natural 1 in defense, it breaks.

Health: You have four states of health: Healthy, Damaged, Critically Damaged, and Fatally Damaged. Healthy is what you are at right now. Damaged gives -1 to particularly difficult tasks. Critically damaged gives -1 to all rolls. Fatally Damaged is your last chance to heal or die.

Other bonuses: Stuff like intimidation and karizma don't stack anymore, only giving plus ones. However, each additional thing that grants plus ones grants a reroll. Also, you are able to safely command the total amount of plus 1s times 5 number of followers (excluding grots, as part of your Runtherd buff)

Things I have to work on (and need your help):

Teef. How much is something worth.

Will update this list.

Tell me if I missed anything you feel important or unbalanced.

[Execute/Dumbo.exe]

Well, what about just a kinda rising system? A small animals teef or any teef from the front of the face (Incisors, for example) are worth about the low end, compared to other teef, while teef from other big orks or from the back of the jaw (Stuff like Molars) Would be on the higher end, so if we take down this Ork warchief and take his position, then the teef from the back of his jaw would be worth bunches.

Perhaps it could even be a kinda 'I did this look at how awesome I am' thing, so instead of just getting mountains of teef, you instead count the biggest teef you might have (Let's say a Ork Warchiefs Molar) And you can use this for either intimidation or trading, where a ork might go.... I dunno, 'This rabbit would need a toof representing you killed something X powerful' and you might pull out a boars back toof, they would go 'oh shit' and give you the rabbit while taking the boar toof.

[Cheesecake]

I don't know. I'm not really excited to keep track of how many molars and incisors we've got. I just assume they're all ork teef.

I was more looking for how much teef could buy what.

Also! On your Rozaryuz, whenever you roll a 1 on defense and your good armor doesn't save you, the rozaryuz activates and protects you from damage. Then it rolls, and the roll number is inversely proportional to how many updates before it can be used again.

Example, rozaryuz used and you roll a 1. You have to wait for 6 updates before it can be used again.

To be honest, I think the old system was actually rather well-balanced. Yes our continuously growing hoard of loot was giving us so many +1's that we couldn't fail, but there's honestly nothing wrong with that.

As we get more and more powerful the danger should come from people who themselves have very high bonuses to help them out. You don't really think there was a 1 in 12 chance Ollanius Pius could've hurt Horus, do you? Another example is there being a 1 in 6 chance that our terminator armour gets broken every time someone tries to break with a rock or something.

I say revert to the old system. Yes our loot would've allowed us to accumulate stat bonus after stat bonus but that isn't a sign of imbalance, it merely means we can only be threatened by others who have roughly equal or greater stat bonuses, and that's ok.

[Cheesecake]

That's true, but then everything (4)(+1 would)(+1 look)(+1 like)(+1 this)(+1 and)(+1 having)(+1 to)(+1 do)(+1 that)(+1 is)(+1 tiring).

You'll still be unbeatable to lowly mooks. In fact, I'd probably auto-win you against some random guardsman or an ork boy. You'd only have to fight those around your level, or those in large enough groups to pose a threat.

[Andres]

Not really, just categorise items and it should be fine.

For intimidation turn this:
+1(Meana')+1(Size)+1(Rozariuz)+1(Cape)+1(Circumstance)
into this:
+2(Physical)+2(Clothing)+1(Misc.)

[NullForceOmega]

Both of you have a point, but Andres is kinda more accurate here, while counting and tallying bonuses is a headache it does feel extremely orky to do things that way.  Anyway, it isn't like we can actually carry everything on us all the time.

I had enuf a dis runt what calls 'imself boss, he ain't done nuffin' orky dis whole time, let's krump 'im!  WAAGGGHHHH!!!!!

Hurls in a grot Dis counts as a vote right?

That git is a disgrace to all Orks. 'Es even lower than a grot! At least grots would have blood on them after a fight, even if it 'is OWN!!!

[Cheesecake]

(Alright, I'll revert back to the old system. Expect much harder enemies, though.)

"Oi, boss! Why do youz got no blood on youz? Too afraid ta fight?" (5)(+1 Meana')(+1 Nob)(+1 Rozaryuz)(+1 Victory) A lot of ork boyz voice their agreement.

"Wot you say, git?" he rumbles. His voice is deathly soft. (4)(+2 Meanest)(+2 Boss)(-1 Circumstance) His followers still remain loyal, though most have sided with you.

"Ya heard me! Youz not even really from our tribe! You came here and krumped our old boss!" you shout. "And you cheated too!" says Gitsmasha.

The boss slowly makes his way to you, grabbing a nob who was in the way. Though the nob is your size, the boss drags him one handed by the head.

" You fink dat I'm unorky." The nob is flailing violently. "You fink because I don't smash heads in front of you gitz dat I don't smash heads at all?" His claws are digging deep into the nob's head. Another nob goes to help him. He is quickly sent flying.

"You stupid git." His claws are deep within the nob's head, poking through the opposite ends. The nob is trailing lifelessly behind the boss. "I'm still da biggest. I'm still da strongest." He lobs the nob at your feet with one hand. "And I'm da boss."

"Last lesson, git. Don't let appearances fool ya."

(5)(+2 Size)(+2 Choppa)vs(4)(+1 Armor)(+1 Shielded Kleava)(+1 Size) The boss stabs you right in the gut, cleanly going through your armor. Blood gushes through the wound.

(1)(+1 Kleava)(+1 Kleava)(+1 Size)vs(5)(+2 Size)(+1 Armor) Your twin kleava's can't hit the elusive boss. He's faster than he looks.

"Wot are ya gonna do now, git?"

(Don't blame me, you rolled pretty badly here.)

Shoot him whilst stabbing him.

+1. We might die here but at least we'll die an ork. 'Sides, we can just roll up a new character later on.

His followers still remain loyal, though most have sided with you.

Ok, here we can expect the Traitors (our side) to beat the Loyalists through sheer numbers if most (>50%) have sided with us. That leaves Gitstompa and our grots open to attacking the warboss himself.

Tell our grots to start blasting him with the shootas.

Shoot him whilst stabbing him.

Considering we didn't even put on our cape, I doubt we picked up the commissar's lasgun either. We've still got gits, though.
