Action points? Fatigue points? Power points? Capacity points? Yeah, all those names suck, but you know what I mean.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00517681852703418895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6261172995649261459.post-55948411406940829692012-09-20T13:30:01.025-04:002012-09-20T13:30:01.025-04:00Ah but remember HP are *not* associated with damag...Ah but remember HP are *not* associated with damage in Beacon.

Too Tim smashed hi...It was a good session for sure. Too Tim smashed his hand in that terrible fumble so early... must have been those long weeks playing nursemaid to the sick.<br /><br />Now that I'm playing a spell caster, I'm having to get used to the whole spend hit points for casting thing. You almost want to call them something else, like action points, get rid of the idea that they're associated with damage. They're a device to keep you in combat longer.
