This should be plain text. Sorry, gmail decided it wanted to send html emails for some strange reason and did not tell me.

I have been unable to make a booze like that though despite trying, as confusion always seems to get cast in some direction from or around the player. > On the topic of armour types, rather than having Halfling armour, Human > armour, etc, we could assign a size attributed to all races and have the > character required to use armour of the right size.

If an armour is specifically made to fit around a halfling, a gnome would not find it as comfortable despite being able to wear it. This would make adding races more difficult though. Also when (if?) sexes are added, male/female armour are different, although wearable by the opposite sex. Perhaps add a penalty for wearing armour of the wrong sex (as it is not suited well for your build)? _______________________________________________ crossfire mailing list crossfire@metalforge.org http://mailman.metalforge.org/mailman/listinfo/crossfire
