Only if everyone is locked in to using one system does it invalidate anything. Since the proposal explicitly says "there's at least two different systems that are possible, depending on where you set the dial," that isn't a legitimate concern.This is a bigger issue than just HP, but at any rate the proposal simply allows you to specify what HP means in your game. If what HP means in your game is crazy ambiguous, that's not something the proposal necessarily takes away ("All Fate Mode").It does, since the assumed presence of inspirational healing and daily recovery rates necessarily mean that HP can't be all meat. It IS a single pool. It just has the meaning of the injury telegraphed more clearly to avoid the break that happens when people don't know what the hell a given hit or damage actually means. If you want to get rid of that, nothing in the proposal forces you to accept it, since it is a dial you can set.</blockquote>
