Free B/X House Rule Download: Astrological Adjustments

One of the things I really appreciate about Welbo as an editor is that he always questions the usefulness of anything that I look at including into a book, especially rules-driven things (like the upcoming Fang, Faith, and Legerdemain rules supplement). Such is today's PDF download—a house rule for Astrological Adjustments for your classic tabletop roleplaying. 

It's not secret that many of us are enamored with Bruce Galloway's The Highest Level of All Fantasy Wargaming. What sold me on buying it from my local B. Dalton's in 1982 was that it included astrological adjustments for ability scores. "What a concept!" I thought to myself. 

Though I've never used in my D&D gaming, I always intended to. Which is why I was looking at including it in Fang, Faith, and Legerdemain. But, thanks to Welbo, I realized it was just fluff—a page in the book I could use for something truthfully more useful. (Still working on what that is, but it's looking like it's going to be Character Background stuff.) 

Anyway, so it doesn't go to waste, here it is for your downloading pleasure!
