Episode 815: Spang, Corroded Beams, Spang, Spang, Metal Shards, Spang, Rusty Springs, and Spang

<<FIRST     <PREVIOUS     NEXT>     LATEST>>

Ricochets are fun. You get to roll lots of dice, and any one of them could potentially cause serious injury to an unsuspecting PC!

Players might attempt to take advantage of ricochets by aiming shots carefully to bounce off objects and hit targets they couldn't otherwise reach from their firing position. You should definitely let them try this!

Don't mention that the odds of them accidentally hitting themselves may be higher than hitting their intended target.
