Message: <blockquote data-quote="pemerton" data-source="post: 8989022" data-attributes="member: 42582">[USER=8495]@uzirath[/USER], thanks for the post!It's a generalisation of the point you make here:This isn't a case of the situation being triggered by the PCs going to such-and-such a place in respect of which the GM has made notes about what situation will be triggered. A you note, "this does require plenty of GM fiat, and no amount of pre-planning could account for all the possibilities."Also, when you say this, I think you raise something that is related to my two points in the OP:I don't think resolution of an orthodox RM skill check allows for the full range and weight of consequences necessary to make this play out dramatically. My GURPS-fu is weak, though I would suspect that, by default, it tends to the rather granular and in-game-causally-constrained in its approach to consequences.</blockquote>
