Yeah, that throws things too much towards the muties if you use STR.

Would you like to get into a fist-fight with a mutie?

I wouldn't want to, that's for sure

As a side note sam, did you have a look at what was causing the issues with the slash damage table?

I haven't checked today, but I'm not sure I want to see cut arms and a leg that's been cut off show as a "Stun" injury.

And a guy was cut 8 or so times in an event with a sword and got about 7 stun injures and a deeply cut leg to show for it...

Just sayin'

"Would you like to get into a fist-fight with a mutie? "

IRL I have had 2 occasions where similar things have occured....some folks are *just* shy of "mutant" status!

But-

Strength does not automatically equal the agility to use it properly.
Just because you're strong, doesn't mean you can dance about like a ballerina....which is why I'm still walking around after those 2 occasions.

If someone can squash you like a grape, don't throw yourself into the grape press!

Well, hence why you give the High Dex characthers a chanse to dodge...

Just make sure to cap it so we dont get super agility people

That's just the short-term descriptions, yeah. I think you'll find after 10 turns or so it would switch to a more meaningful description (when the short term effects turn into long term). However, I'll edit the short term descriptions..

I think it's high time to revisit dex

both for gunnery and hand weapon accuracy and dodging,

" float like a butterfly, sting like a bee" ... agegegege...
