    There is no THAC0. You have a Base Attack Bonus (BAB).

    Basically what you roll on your to-hit roll plus all the modifications (BAB etc.) must beat your enemy's AC in order for you to hit.

    Yes. And if you want to see what your net attack bonus is, look on the 2nd tab of your stats screen. The attack bonus is on the top, followed by your AC, followed by your damage.
