Image: a shot of the "health/ damage" section of the system Burning Wheel. Each column is different levels of damage you can take. :ablobflushed: I thought the Savage World health/damg system was extra.

I know some ppl might like this. Feel it is "more realistic to real combat". But its designs like these that A) get-on-my-nerves, and B) bring to mind the quote "Some motherfuckers are always trying to ice-skate uphill."

@SJohnRoss I could see this being a potentially good, interesting videogame mechanic.

Burning Wheel uses a mutli d6 roll mechanic. Which I usually hate. But we are using a virtual table, so that counts the dice for me, and now Im fine with it.

If this health/damg system was in a computer game, I might not bat an eye. But no, the devs are asking my brain meats to handle it each turn, each session.

For however clever it is, i think it has oversight of interest, patence, & accessability.

I have gushed about before. But it really is important in my life. It gave -me- permission to be weird. And looking back, it was all the oddballs that made it that helped w/ that. The fact that they all got together and made something so odd, showed smaller-me that oddness was out there, and doing things. Paying bills with oddness. Making art with weirdness. That life-while-weird can be done, & to great effect.

It helped me be that part of myself. And I love my life with that in it.
