Re: "Neat" Pictures Both, sounds like.

Re: The cranky thread Well, it wasn't a followup so much as an audition. Don't know if I aced anything, but it sounds as though they'll offer me the job pending an internal huddle. Namedropping MisterVimes works! No bones were broken, which is just as well since it was a phone interview.

Re: The cranky thread Can I use you as a reference? Random Internet friend I've never met?

Re: The cranky thread Job interview in 30. Nervous. Can't focus.

Re: The cranky thread But I don't think they'll hire me if I break their legs. It's not a mob enforcer position.

Re: The cranky thread It went well enough to earn me a followup interview at least.

Re: Feeding a starship crew for a year The idea of having chickens and pigs running around on board a starship for eventual consumption appeals to me.

Re: The cranky thread Silly Vimes! If I do that, the authorities will know it's foul play! Accidental decapitations are rare.

Re: The cranky thread I like to read the obituaries to see if I succeeded...

Re: The cranky thread I hate failing exams.

Re: "Neat" Pictures And Season 4, "Ambrose Bierce's Owl Creek Bridge". The Poe season would totally rock. Although I think the pendulum episode would likely end badly.

Re: Quote of the Week From My Life. So, I ask again: Where do I send my resume?

Re: "Neat" Pictures What, you don't like the current black-green-yellow color scheme of the current paper money? Why shouldn't money look like an ugly bruise?

Re: Damage Limits That's one of the things I really like about FH--there are many ways to easily represent magic weapons in the system. You can increase the damage, obviously, or give it +1 OCV. Or you can reduce the STR min. Or give it AP, or penetrating, or +10 STUNx, or +levels to Sweep, or range bonuses, and so on. And these are all for "generic", somewhat-superior-to-ordinary, magic weapons.

Re: Musings on Random Musings That never seemed to bother management during my short stint in retail.

Re: "Neat" Pictures Well, I got one out of two at least.

Re: Damage Limits Wouldn't that be 1d6+1k? We always handled damage limits in a relatively mooshy way based on CV, average armor, and other considerations, with final approval resting with the GM. For a 150cp game, 2d6+1k was your typical highest 'average' damage as wielded by PCs, but you could go higher if your OCV was going to be, like, 3.

Re: Mass Combat System and Archery Units As for Agincourt, I will simply add that it is one instance in a pattern that defines French performance in warfare throughout most of recorded history--individual heroism and skill of their soldiers sabotaged by the politics or incompetence of their leadership.

Re: Mass Combat System and Archery Units That was the exact solution I was going to propose. Against missile fire, individual combatants in formed units simply aren't full DCV. It's really a question of whether one of them is in the path of any particular missile. There's a point at which 'DCV' is really decided by unit size and density more than anything else.
