Trying out the hardcore Tolkien-themed roguelike game--a fork or "variant" of Angband--called Sil-Q! This is version 1.5.0-beta2, on Windows. The game is free and open source: https://github.com/sil-quirk/sil-q/releases
23:53 - The game's pdf manual, which goes into stat calculations in a lot of detail, says that the (-1) for an armor piece is just a -1 to accuracy, NOT to damage as well.
I also figured out later that I can make keymaps to assign keys overlapped by the vi keys (u for Use and l for Look, particularly) to other keys, so I don't have to use Ctrl with them all the time (and keep forgetting and almost getting myself killed by taking accidental steps ; ).
So there were some frustrations with the interface and documentation, but I think I've figured my way around the main interface beefs so far, with those keymaps. The game itself is a lot of fun! : D
