Geesh. Too busy in here.<BR>><BR>>Ok. Heres a
topic.<BR>><BR>>1) Anyone do up rules on Exhaustion ? Obviously if Conan storms a castle<BR>>and kills 30 guards out of 120 hes going to get tired. Sooner or later he<BR>>can't left his big old sword. Sooner or later that should be done.<BR>>I've adapted the Gamma World simple system years ago but its in my brain<BR>>rather than on paper. I was curious if anyone had rigged up a system for<BR>>it for marathon actions (running, fighting, etc.)?<BR>><BR>>2) Richard, the rule on can't cast magic while moving. Is interesting. i<BR>>always forgot it at times early on. I mean you always see in the movies<BR>>they fight with magic while moving (look at that Potter punk :)).<BR>>Seriously though. Can one cast magic on a moving object while THEY
are<BR>>still? Ie on a wagon or horse. Technically they are not moving but the<BR>>object they are on? I assume so since on a ship (not moving but the ship<BR>>is) its possible and I've done that.
