However, Min's case here was a rather extreme one...and well, the dice didn't tumble his way. Two things I want to point out in the log that noone has mentioned though...1) Minalcar attacked. Knowing that S'polk (that name is murder ever time my fingers have to type it) had Shokai's tattoo...and what it could do. 2) Notice the amout of damage Minalcar does in his attack (nothing against Minalcar, he's a damn good player who know what to do and does it well) had S'polk not fled...both of them would've died. I do understand that dying from someone who got a lucky shot in on you sucks...but like I said, this was a somewhat extreme case (there are a few thoughts I have as to minor changes that may make this far less common...but whether or not I do them will depend on a variety of things....one of which, probably one of the biggest things I'll be looking at, being my reluctance to weaken the one thing that the Maran have going for them to the point of uselessness)
