DM: In the chest, you find a suit of chainmail.

DM: Ok. Mark down on your sheet -4ac.
Player: Wait, is it cursed?
DM: No no it's just normal chainmail, which is -4ac.
Player: What? chainmail is worse than wearing nothing?
DM: Er no no.. negative AC is good.
Player: ...what?
this is the one reason why i liked 3.0/3.5 more than ad&d. anyways ive played since i was 12 started with the old dungeons and dragon basic box set. anyone remember that? it came with cardboard monsters and characters and vinyl playing mat? one thing ive noticed with the fantasy games these days is that the are becoming less and less fantasy and more akin to sci-fi (eberron anyone?)
