Simple topic really.

I'm hoping people can keep posting all of the DOS titles that they remember or know of that features Armor Class and/or THACO in the game.

I'll start out by saying all of the Wizardry Series and Pool of Radiance.

THACO = all games derivative of AD&D system.
AC = most RPG games and some strategy ones.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by requesting all those games.

I didn't quite know where to post this topic and thought that this area seemed like the best fit.

So yeah, I'm just asking for all of the names of these types of games you guys can generate, not any type of special link to abandoned downloads, requests for any uploads, or anything else like that. Only the names written in text that you guys can remember.

I wouldn't mind if it could also include console titles as well, even the most current ones.

Just nothing for Windows.

Thanks.

As you are only asking for names of all sorts of games fitting a description, not requesting any games, it sounds like this is something for the Favourite Oldies/Newbies thread. I won't mind if someone here moved it over there

This Requests thread is basically for requesting games for AB to get.

Uh-huh. Moved.

List of D&D/AD&D licensed games on Moby should go a long way to helping you in your task.

I'm afraid it doesn't have all games that use AC value, though.

Diablo and Diablo II use AC, BTW.

About all the games with a combat simulation have AC. Even Xcom have AC...

It would be way faster to create a list of games which doesn't use AC as a system than the inverse... <_<
