Re: Detailed (mundane) armor Sectional armor is usually enough for most games, but I too have thought about assigning different DEF values for cutting, piercing, and crushing damage. Then all you have to do is decide what type of damage is what. The interesting part for me was that it gives another layer of tactical interest on offense--do I want to stab with my sword and inflict piercing damage, or swing it and try for a cut? Is the bad guy wearing mostly chain or some plate? I never got around to writing up the various attack modes for different weapons, though.

Re: More space news! And my wife still wouldn't be satisfied.

Re: "Neat" Pictures Man, that looks like fun.

Re: Quote of the Week From My Life. Ah, to be young again.

Re: "Neat" Pictures It needs a drawbridge. But otherwise, yeah, it'd be the perfect place for me to dwell while I write my manifesto.

Re: The cranky thread Yeah, it sucks.

Re: "Neat" Pictures I need to get one of those bracelets. As does the NGD's resident astrologer.

Re: Destroy Your Geek Cred!! Yeah, no spoilers there. I might not have the attention span for tabletop RPGs anymore. After two or three hours, tops, I start to get antsy unless combat is happening.

Re: A Thread for Random Musings Can you cut through Wolverine with a lightsaber? Can you force choke Superman? Would Superman survive a warp core detonation? Can a lightsaber deflect phaser fire? Would the Vulcan nerve pinch work on Wolverine?

Re: "Neat" Pictures Bullets aren't designed to travel in water, so they're not stable in that medium. There's a youtube associated with that picture; in it, you can see that the bullet turns sideways almost immediately and comes apart. It only makes it 2-3 feet through the water.

Re: The cranky thread What's a "book"?

Re: What Fantasy/Sci-Fi book have you just finished? Please rate it... No! You must love them. Love them! Or HAAAAAAATE them. There is no 'dislike'. We are a polarized, divided nation now! Why do you hate America?

Re: What Fantasy/Sci-Fi book have you just finished? Please rate it... I read the first three Thomas Covenant books and I think they all suck. Mhoram here loves them. What you have to realize is that the "protagonist", or more accurately the POV character, is deeply, deeply flawed, so you have to be able to kind of put up with that. Back upthread, Lankhmar is fantastic. All of them.

Re: More space news! So that's where I left them!

Re: Fantasy Race Bloat? Six.
