Lots of others' date=' but not that one.[/quote'] Creeks & Crawdads ; A reimaged version, but has most of the flavor The key to Creeks and Crawdads is to remember that you have a character that is much more stupid than you could ever be. For all but the most basic stuff (eating, obeying orders), if a player wants his character to do something (comprehending orders, finding food) an IQ roll is required. An IQ roll is NEVER required for a failure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazza Posted June 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 100 miles per gallon The Law of Physics is defmed as duplicating a given function without change. Therefore A proven function becomes a law of defmition: example ... Law of motion, law of inductance, etc. Consequently The law of definition as to proven function is herein used throughout this WFC Tech-Brief as "Merit of Expression. " The Law of Change A law of Physics establishes a proven function based on "Preset" conditions ... Change anyone of the conditions and the law no longer applies ... A "new" law emerges in the consciousness of Physics Why? ... Atoms possess intelligence ... Performing the "What if' logic function under different "Preset" conditions. Stanley A.
