Hey there :) The last article in this newsletter on “Redundant Skills” kind of highlights some of what we discussed yesterday about mechanics of social interaction vs. combat. http://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/newsletter_current.php

Some things that get annoying in combat mechanics are realistic in social interaction. The “get the guard to leave his/her post” is a good example—intimidating, seducing, bribing, convincing are all valid approaches, and most characters would not be equally good at all of them. I think that’s often something a GM works into the game though, based somewhat on stats. Making a mechanic that feels realistic on various levels is especially challenging.

thought you would find this interesting (if you weren’t following it already)

also just wondering, when they take this data how do they factor out the external gravitational pull of the moon? for that matter the acceleration of the instrument itself. must be some headache inducing math involved.

I recently updated my game Neon Warrior. and hopefully made it more clear of how to play and what to do. check it out. there will be updates to imprve other things sometime soon as well.

and by the way the instructions can be found in the title page after clicking the bottom button. like how it was previously. And how is this poor user friendlyness? I am updating a game to improve users satisfaction.
