    They should have breasts in rogue-likes.

    Classic IE, baby... Armour (just... armour) Helmet / Hat Cloak / Coat / Robe Gauntlets / Gloves Belt Boots Rings x 2 Pendant / Medallion Weapon 1 Shield / Weapon 2 (plus IWD2 swap-out weapon combos)

    Goats, man. Goats. Cat's ain't sacrificial critters, although I salute your efforts.

    Animal sacrifice might work.

    You've deployed to Wales once or twice, haven't you?

    Jagged Alliance 2 did this. But different genre, more of a strat overlay. Would love to see a fantasy JA2, it would be great, but PE is meant to be more traditional.

    1972 but my watch is pretty cheap.

    I think an encounter between these GIs and a giant grasshopper is completely unwinnable and exactly the sort of thing PE needs to make it stand out from the crowd.

    Instead of laughing it off... at least lay out why this scene doesn't work for you ? (wooden animations ? dialogue ?) Do I really need to?

    ^ King Arthur, the Clive Owen version, did that well. They wore kit appropriate to the circumstances and in the final battle put on some badass heavy fighting gear...

    This forum is now as dead as disco, which is cool as it sorts out the men from the sheep. No offence to any New Zealanders here, naturally.

    Stop LARPing and realise that Dragon Age has the emotional intensity of Pokemon.

    Krezzie, this is why you are bonkers and sitting in your strange ivory tower, constructed completely out of astro-turf. Because if you honestly think that Joe Soap in Ohio didn't vote for Romney because of his position on AGW then you are nuts.

    Enchanted ammo is potentially even cooler than an enchanted muskets... Buckshot of Bleeding Doom-shot of Evisceration Munition of Venom Aught Fifty Depleted Uranium rounds of Pwnage, for when you really have to kill every plate-armoured MoFo in the room.

    On a serious note, in the old AD&D module Vault of the Drow... There was an implicit piece of text for the DM to read out if the adventuring party chose to reveal themselves and enter into open warfare with the thousands of Drow in the underground city. Basically, you just pointed out that after a heroic but bloody battle you were overwhelmed and slaughtered. Because The Vault was full of badass drow. And there had to be some rules. You don't often see this is a RPG but to me it's a good thing.

    ^ I'd still.... well, you know.

    With regards to armour: Do you remember the rules of any fight involving a blade, of any description? You are GOING to get cut. Forget what martial arts fanbois say. You are going. to. get. cut. There are a number of ways to mitigate this. 1. Shoot the dude with the blade from a safe distance 2. Use your skillz, as much as you can, to mitigate the amount of cuts you recieve 3. WEAR ARMOUR The more missile weapons became ascendant, the less armour soldiers wore until the revolution in ceramics and ballistic fabrics of the 80s and 90s. And, guess what? Soldiers are wearing armour again.

    More NPCs in the streets equals more XP when I open up on them with fireballs, right?
