What are the rules for?

[A_Carrington]

No, actually, in this kind of context I'm not going to assume that another person and I are going to be using "easily" the same way, because I've seen plenty of cases where it isn't.



You go by your experience, I'll go by mine. I have no reason to believe yours is the more common one here.

Same here.

That tracks. But  how the proposed rule handles it is just as important.


Since we're defining things: mechanics exist to fix cars. Mechanisms are the systems you get when rules interact.


Have you been playing Dragon's Dogma?

Dragon's Crown, actually.

But seriously, is something as simple as throwing enemies really unheard of in your games? I usually get at least one grappler archetype in games I run.

While you're not wrong, "game mechanics" as a term for rules system has propagated far enough now I think trying to fix it is a fool's errand.
