But with the way they're talking about "exceptions based rules" for monsters, I'm hoping we'll see a couple monsters who have called shot rules just for them. For instance, it'd be nice if the Cyclops had a rule that states that a PC can attempt to strike its eye. If they inflict X amount of damage, then the Cyclops loses X, Y, and Z abilities. If they don't make the roll, then they miss.  Something similar would be cool for vampires. If you have a wooden or silver weapon, then you can attempt to hit their heart with your attack. If you make the roll, then the vampire is dusted. If you fail the roll, then you miss.  So while I wouldn't want to see generic called shot rules, it would be nice if certain monsters had specific called shot rules relating to them only. I think it'd make fighting creatures like the Cyclops and Vampires more fun. But then again, I just thought of this right now. If I sit and think about it for another 10 minutes, I may end up finding 10 different flaws in this idea. Oh well.</blockquote>
