Good Rules Set for AD&D 1 or 2?

[rule of three]

I've downloaded ad&d2 ruleset. It's robust but it hasn't all that features of osric ruleset. When I created osric ruleset I have one thing in mind : flexibility

Old Schoolers have tons of house rules and modifications done by years of practice. So, my scripts point to one and only one values reference : oldschoolreferences.lua.

Skills are also very flexibles : you can use d100, d20, d12, d6... add bonus or abilities, roll under or not, ...

And the one thing that was not easy to incorporated : the weapon vs Ac bonus and malus. I'm not very happy with my initial method but I haven't find time to change the interface since I've scripted it.

But, yes, OSRIC ruleset is old now and lacks some great features of the newer ruleset.

Thank you, mate.
Is this (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/...Ruleset:_OSRIC) the same ruleset?

Yes that looks like it - sorry - I peeked in the Wiki and must have missed it.
The one in the Wiki is by rule_of_three the poster above.

the osric ruleset is fine, but we can't use it. too many times a player has accidentally changed the value of a skill because of the mouse wheel and there's no reset value. usually a ruleset has the option to use ctrl to stop this, but the osric ruleset doesn't. it's a shame b/c other than that the ruleset is awesome and osric would be our go-to game. instead, I use core and created a BFRPG ruleset that works great. it was just easier for me to create ascending AC value stat blocks than decending.

Castles and Crusades. Give it a look see. If you want a tour let me know.
