[QUOTE="jgsugden, post: 8674985, member: 2629"] I have. I have played a lot of GURPS, with access to almost every single supplement they have ... and there are plenty of situations that arise where rules do not cover it at all, or cover it in a reasonable way where it is covered. And yet it isn't the first thing that many people consider. Look how many responses come out here telling you [I]the[/I] way to rule it....and that is why it needs to be a judgment call by the DM. They could have written 50 pages with specific examples and it would still result in people saying their situation was different because of a nuance. In the end, despite how much you write, it comes down to the DM making a call, and that IMHO should be based upon a totality of circumstances. If the caster does something that makes the target feel harmed, that should be enough. That is going to change from target to target. [/QUOTE]
