[QUOTE="Apok, post: 569721, member: 1969"] [b]Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: d20 Modern or Spycraft?[/b] Yes, very true about the minions not being able to crit per the rules, but seeing as how I'm a rat bastard DM, I think I may just ignore that one... :D Or, at the very least, say that minion crits would deal double Vit damage. It is also true that the GM controls when and when not to apply a crit from an NPC, but you can bet your bottom dollar that I will do so 90% of the time. It's all a matter of feel. If the Control wants a more dramatic feel, then it's likely he won't activate crits unless dramatically appropriate, resulting in a game that's more cinematic and less dangerous. However, if you're going for a more realistic, grim & gritty feel (like I am) then you would always apply them if you can spare the Action Dice. So, in that sense, the lethality of Spycraft is largely in the hands of the GM, but I just happen to like mine on the high side. [/QUOTE]
