[QUOTE="DonTadow, post: 2229221, member: 22622"] I thought about the luck damage thing for a bit, and I even told my players that it makes sense and seems logical to do it like that. There is so much stuff I saw on here and said, man, this is brilliant stuff. Then I got home, popped in God's of War and saw some of the most awesome, fluid, unrealistic combat in the world and said.... this is why. I ended up meeting with a couple of my players about 11pm lastn ight to play heroscape, and they were telling me how much they love maiming and destroying things. I felt kind bad, because my DM quest for realism almost stepped on their idea of the game. As a logical dm I can feel the need for changes in the hp system, but for someone like one of my players who loves to hear how daggers punture lungs and axes sever vertibre, i'm not sure if its always good. Someone also argued with me (the smart ass medical student in my campaign) that wheras a human body can gain muscles to take more stress, the human immune system actually weakens as we age, despite the muscle factor. ) Taking this into account I guess the hp recovery system makes some bit of since.
