[QUOTE="FormerlyHemlock, post: 6629550, member: 6787650"] I agree Celtavian that would be trivial to murder the PCs while staying completely within RAW. But only a jerk does that. I see staying within RAW except where explicitly changed as a necessary but not sufficient condition for player empowerment. The thing is that RAW hardly covers anything. At least at my table, 70% of what happened last session has no RAW. Trade routes, interplanetary colonization, spell research: where's the rules for that? My players and I have to make it up. Because I have the most rules mastery, that usually means I propose the rule and they ratify it, a la "I'll give you 1.66 gp of income from trade per ton of cargo capacity per day per point of SR. You can gain more by upgrading your personal contacts or by getting a bigger or faster ship. Does that sound fair?" I think it's important for them to know the rules so they can act effectively within them. Sent from my LS670 using Tapatalk 2 [/QUOTE]
