This was the first week they remembered to use LUCK at all.I'll cover this more specifically in a separate post about combat that I just haven't had a chance to type up yet but the short answer is that the change in career/skill had a negligible impact on overall dice pools. Of the five players, one had to change out one rank of Marksman for another skill and everything else remained unchanged. At a glance you'll be inclined to think that's bad but don't. Our opinion on this is evolving - in fact we had close to a 45 minute discussion on this very topic towards the end of the night (discussion is the nice way of putting it <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />). The new lower DEFENSE scores coupled with Combat Tricks and utilizing in-built mechanics such as Overwatch and Suppressing Fire changed up the combat dynamic significantly.</blockquote>
