| Got the idea for this after seeing a similar thread on Warseer. Which system do you use? _________________  | House wrote: | | Religion isn't the opium of the masses, it's the placebo. |

| I use Imperial whilst gaming, it's just the simplest and easiest to work with when gaming. _________________ Regards, Jake.  |

| Wooh, imperial all the way! None of that la-di-da metric nonsense here - bah! Personally, I don't think we should have changed in the first place... Anyways, I just think it's the easier one to use: smaller numbers, larger units, better rounded, easily divided...it's all good  _________________ "Ignorance breeds monsters to fill up the vacancies of the soul that are unoccupied by the verities of knowledge"p.s - My avatar is a piece done by a friend of mine - you can find her deviantART page here |

| I used to use metric, but now moving onto imperial as it's slightly easier to work with, and seems slightly more balanced. Inches is rounder, while I find a couple of cm measurements tend to get thrown out a little more. _________________ CalCaptain of the White Tower and Uniter of the Goblin Clans  |
