[QUOTE="ValhallaGH, post: 4998193, member: 41187"] Never fear. Leaping into the rafters and chopping the ropes suspending heavy barrels of water over your enemies was a common tactic in last Friday's session (a Trailblazer game, interestingly enough). Alternatively, jumping onto the barrels to direct their fall onto the enemies rather than onto empty ground. The monk was very happy with her deadly-ninja ways. Wacky things are semi-covered by the rules. It's more a matter of perspective than anything else. Elevation bonuses, flanking, feinting, and the ubiquitous circumstance bonus all provide guidelines on just how much a stunt should help out. And if you've ever read through the Stunt rules in Iron Heroes (some really lovely concepts in that book that have forever changed and cinematicatized, yes I just made up a word, my games) you'll see the necessary perspective. And even simpler [url=http://dino-pirates.com/BasicsStunts.php]stunting goodness[/url] can be found already prepared (good work to which I have almost no connection). [/QUOTE]
