Is there a place where FO! writing conventions (particularly in terms of stats) are summarized for everyone to see? I see that in the first issues there were quite a few substitutions of terms, for legal reasons I would guess. Like "Defense Class" instead of "AC" and such.
So. Are there conventions in this regard, or this is something the editor changes when publishing the article, or it's more of a "wing it and we'll fix it if we need to" kind-of thing?
If there are conventions, what are they?
Thank you!

Everyone is encouraged to write for their homebrewed rule system - ie for the rules they run their home game in.
We make some substitutions for uniformity. Currently: HD, hp, DC (for defense class), SPD, Warrior, Mage, Priest, Thief, off the top of my head. Subject to change.
Thanks for your interest!
