[QUOTE="The Eternal GM, post: 4164894, member: 52760"] I'm not offended, my sorcerers can always do with +1 Cha, and it's not like they use Str for anything. Doesn't make much sense... But I'll take it. While I won't get myself killed by discussing the mental side of things, I think we can agree that blokes are stronger than gals are. No point citing the female bodybuilder... Get me the strongest male and female bodybuilders and I bet you the guy is far, far stronger! Saying "that steroid freak women is stronger than a geeky guy!" is no argument at all. The problem is that there's a perceived need for equality and balance in the game, but the game system isn't realistic. Never has been, never will be. So the debate, argument or whatever becomes null and void. I dig Pendragon. Pendragon rocks. Ladies are statted entirely differently to men in it. But then again, so are all the other cultures. If you're not English or Irish, you're basically inferior... Heaven help you if you're a Pict who are woefully low on statistic advantages. But that suits the author's intent and (more or less) the fiction. Not realistic really, but it fits. [/QUOTE]
