"partial PSR success" => stumbling ?
« on: 06 August 2013, 03:44:52 »
optional rule = 1/2 damage on to-hit = TN needed = zero MoS

essentially same line of logic ----> PSR...

if MoS = 0 on a PSR, then the 'Mech does not fall...

but "stumbles", re-righting itself before falling...

but the 'Mech must still roll on the falling damage table...

and take the listed facing change, i.e. the 'Mech "stumbles around" and winds up facing some different direction

their rules (not mine) = "everybody dies, and from death, some are selected to slavery"

foolish farmers fooled forth from farms, to the field, at (e.g.) Marathon, where many men met determined doom, and all others, identified, were ever after relentlessly pursued & hunted down, themselves, their families, their blood, per policy of "pasture-ization", by (e.g.) oath-sworn Hannibal, patiently, for prolonged protracted periods, to present -- those have been being The Rules, for many millennia

honor is politics... right ?

I can see a turn one hex facing but nothing more.

when people trip on a curb, or stub their toe, then they can wind up doing dances every which way...

"stumble on partial PSR success" would emphasize the importance of piloting, as a complimentary skill, to gunnery

w/o good pilots, 'Mechs would wind up stumbling around the battlefield, emphasizing the importance, of the pilots, and their difficulty in piloting advanced BMs, even w/ neurohelmets
