Speed
« on: January 15, 2014, 04:14:09 AM »
I was wondering if you could add a minus value in the speed category? Say for an obese character or one with a fake leg as examples.

Obviously they could not run, maybe a shortened maximum walk distance? How many points would be reasonable to add back to your total cost for taking this?

Probably no more than -1 for -1" and -2 for -2".

That would seem fair unless it takes their cost below 1 point. No armies of free, one-legged men allowed!  lol

(When I read the name of this thread, secretly I was hoping it was about a scenario where your company is trapped on a steam locomotive that can't drop below 55 miles per hour, or the bomb will go off! Also, now I want to run that scenario.)

Of course it would have to be the Orient Express, running through the Alps, whilst on a journey from Paris to Venice.
