This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: daniel_ream;493949The Multiple Attack rule resolves all the Spider-Man combat examples I listed, but as a followup to Aos' experience I'll point out that the rules for them are six pages long.
And yet, it can be simplified down to:

* Pay Endurance for all attacks.
* -2 OCV for every additional attack.
* -2 OCV for mixing HTH and Ranged attacks.
* -2 OCV for mixing Non-Mental and Mental attacks.
* If you hit the same target with an area attack and a non-area attack, you can't switch and target the ground (DCV 3).
* You take the worse of any modifiers to your CV (and to MCV, if you're using mental attacks).
* You're at 1/2 DCV.

None of that sounds like a trial to remember and it's about what I, at least, would rule as a GM.
The main problem with government is the difficulty of pressing charges against its directors.

Given a choice of two out of three M&Ms, the human brain subconsciously tries to justify the two M&Ms chosen as being superior to the M&M not chosen.
