Criticism

Fighting in Drastic Crusade can be challenging. Hitting the enemies requires a "to hit roll". However when the enemy attacks, it doesn't require a "to hit roll". This leads to a frustrating problem where the player misses most of the time while the enemies do a successful hit every time.
