I'm glad you like this; I had hoped that it would explain things better. It's a good example of the way game play flowed with both early D&D and EPT.
I think the parry is a bonus on the 'to hit' roll; I'd have to look at the specific game rules to be sure. Phil used to base the bonus on the 'Dexterity' number that one rolled for the character, with a higher dexterity giving a better chance to parry the oncoming blow.
