The 1E Advanced! RAW Combat Simulator is a simple Windows Forms app (usable only on newer versions of Windows OS with .NET Framework) that allows you to mock any number of combats between two opponents, utilizing the "rules as written" (RAW) mechanics for combat introduced in First Edition Advanced Dungeons and Dragons. You can select which RAW options you'd like to use, and the program will simulate combats between your chosen opponents while using your selected rules. Detailed stats are returned, and you can review them to see the effects on combat of your chosen options. Don't expect anything super-special; this is mainly a proof of concept and something I wanted to get into other people's hands. I plan on releasing other pieces of software/other (and maybe expanding upon this one) soon.

NOTES
- Extract the 1eAdvancedRawCombatSimulator to a location of your choosing, then run the installer, ignoring any security warnings (I promise you that it's safe and I don't want to spend hundreds of bucks on a security certificate to prove it). Once installed, you can find it in your start menu and on your desktop. The program itself gets installed to `%LOCALAPPDATA%\DoomsWords\1e Advanced Raw Combat Simulator`. In this folder, you can find a database that may be useful to you.
- The program takes a few seconds to spawn; not much I've been able to do about that but I may wrap this in a modern GUI at some point.
- Bards are included in the combatant class choices, but they aren't fleshed out - best to ignore them; they're simply included for database completeness
- The x3 Missile Fire Combat Rate only applies to "Bow" ranged weapons
