[QUOTE="Catulle, post: 895566, member: 9942"] Try reading an older White Wolf index one day... quite the exercise in frustration. :eek: I don't think anybody could argue in all seriousness that the Storyteller system handles combat well or quickly. Though I think it works okay, the PbP environment may be an asset to the flow in that all the (buckets of) dice rolling can be kept together. Totally on board with you both, here. I think we're engaged in a (very) hypothetical analysis of the combat system here, rather than a comparison of character "hardness". At least, I hope we are... ;) Maybe I should have used templates for the example rather than risk misinterpretation, though I think even that may have missed the main point of reaper's question. Re firearms; I'm happy to go with concealability as written. After a little testing with Helen's and my housemate's replicas, I reckon you can fit a SPAS-12 and an Uzi under a long coat reasonably well if, like me, you're a scrawny kind of guy (and like Nikolai's stats would suggest). Just avoid crowds and well-lit areas; you should be fine. If not very comfortable. Gun availability, on the other hand, is something I'm going to have to think about a little harder. Not to take anything away at this point, but maybe to tighten up a bit on acquiring the heavy weapons in future. Thoughts? Regards, Barry [/QUOTE]
