[QUOTE="DarkMaster, post: 2142741, member: 16362"] That's reflected in the game through sense motive If I look at the history of the world there is a bunch of leaders who lied to their people to manipulate them. If they would have known the thruth they wouldn't have followed. Of course some gifted people saw through them but the masses simply beleived, trusted and followed them. How many people get tricked by good salesman, even I who consider myself pretty aware of others intention fell a few times to their tricks. In a course at work I played a game of negociations with other employe, I trick them into beleiving they could trust me, and my team won the game. If they knew sub-consciously what I was planning there is no way my team would have won, but I convinced the other team to trust me. Some where so mad at me after the game and it was hard to remind them that it was simply a game. The teacher actually said that what I did was an extremely bad example of leadership and got very critized for it. But He I lead my team to victory ;) . In my opinion average people will have a hard time fooling other average people. But trained people in the art of selling, negociating, bluffing, convincing should be able to convince the average joe quite easily. And I think that in terms of games mechanics the only member of the team Sarlis can't easily fool is Ayden. That's why I beleive I should put what Sarlis think in sblock. [/QUOTE]
