I didn't really have a gaming group to test it on, so a lot of the stuff that is coming up - even the basic stuff - takes me a couple iterations of "what the hell was I thinking?" <br /><br />Does that make me a bad man? Maybe, maybe. The recent back-and-forth on Pickups was a case in point. I was really sweating it until I realized, belatedly, that a Pickup always follow a GRAPPLE. That inflicts CP and lowers the ST and DX (what pickups are resisted by) of the foe. So ST DOES matter, just not quite right out in the open. Then Rory jumps in with "hey, isn't this all made irrelevant by the one-liner in the Basic Set about lifting in combat at less than 1x your Basic Lift?" Yes, yes it is.<br /><br />2) Actually, the hard part about the interview was for me to SHUT UP. Interviews aren't dialog. They're monolog. I might one day go back and add my thoughts about what Sean said in a follow-up post (hey! content!), but no fan wants to hear me talk about GURPS much.
