Episode 1460: Feeling Shot, Shot, Shot

<<FIRST     <PREVIOUS     NEXT>     LATEST>>

Combat tricks are great, but you can't have them work every time. As explained in the GURPS rule book, getting the upper hand in a fight by grabbing a handful of sand and throwing it in your opponent's face might be a great trick to use once. But if it worked every time, warriors would walk around with bags of sand instead of swords.

Actually... that'd make an interesting idea for a campaign world...

Though Anakin would hate it.

(Thanks to Facebook commenter for that last bit.)
