I agree with thulsa 100%. More creation is better than conversion notes. I was disappointed with length of the new book, but not due to cost, just would like more of thulsa's work! Perhaps a third party could be working on conversion notes? thulsa, get back to writing! Rusty

Don't forget RuneQuestII! Rusty

Yeah, you're right for important npcs. I suppose I was thinking about your more mundane or throwaway characters. I would still suggest estimating rather than calculating for these low rank npcs though... Unless you can steal someone else's hard work, that's even better! Cheers, Rusty

Crap, double post - how did I do that!?!? Rusty

RAW suggest they could - can you see a barrier to this? Or is it that you assume that the >100% pact would mean the person in question would no longer have free will? Rusty

Yes, I can see cult tradition is an important factor, but is there not some advantage to using a tool over ones bare hands? Rusty

Hi, I am struggling to understand the value of strangling someone with a garotte (does 1d3 damage per CA) vs barehanded strangling (1d3 to selected location, per CA). Can anyone point out what I'm missing? Rusty

Whooop! Thanks Loz!

Loz, I think he may be taking a jab at the lack of a recognizable product lineage linking Traveller and the two settings (Stontium Dog and Judge Dredd). :) Cheers Rusty
