THAC0
is an acronym for “To Hit Armor Class 0.” This is the number a character,
NPC, or monster needs to attack an Armor Class 0 target successfully. THAC0
depends on a character's group and level (see Table 53). The THAC0 number can be used to calculate the number needed to hit any
Armor Class. THAC0 is refigured each time a character increases in level. Using
THAC0 speeds the play of combat greatly.
