Lemme just tell you that players aren't gonna like this too much, because
it is taking features out of the game in essence. Like whoever it was
said, CircleMUD allows you to create your own armour combination, and it
makes hunting for a 'complete' set of armour one of the main features
people like on circle.

Yup. We have a chance for any item to break (weapons can break, armour can
get damaged, then break after taking enough damage). The chances are
dependant on the hitroll and the damage done. For instance, in the old
ad&d games, the lower your hitroll, the less skilled your attack. Now, if
you roll a 3 and still end up hitting your target, you've hit them with a
shitty hit. If you smash the flat end of your sword (shitty hit . . . uh
huh) against your enemy and do a HUGE amount of damage, your swords gonna
snap in two. Also, if someone clubs you for a huge ammount of damage on
your helmet, it's gonna get dented.

Hmm, never tried just because I'd rather do it with a team of switched
immortals. Maybe you could look over the path editor someone came out with
. . . I think it did somehting along these lines.
