I haven't played since middle school, and am quite interested in what the new editions have to bring. I have to imagine it's even more stats about combat, hearing perception, etc. That stuff is much less fun than the way you resolved your plate armor hearing challenge.
Well Michael, the new edition is a breath of fresh air. They realized that fourth edition was a grave error and now the combat rules and skill check details have taken a back seat to good old role playing. You are encouraged to solve your problems the way I tackled the plate mail issue. And for those that want the rules lawyering there is plenty of room to argue hearing a person in plate mail is 'very easy' not 'easy'.
And as a parting thought. The vibe is very similar to the West End Games Star Wars d6 system. also known as the greatest role playing game system of all time.
