Dear Ken,
Thanks so much for this. It[s always fun to read AP reports, but this
has some gems.
Profession: Corpse Broker is exactly the sort of thing that we
designed that skill to do. Just great. And you are right that
brawling is a good knife-fighter skill, though close combat can also
be used -- knives behave differently depending on how they are used,
and that flexibility is what we were trying to model (i.e. how a
knife is not like a sword, and still works with the point-buy design
system so as not to lose out). "Routinely underestimated" is a great
aspect, and would be really fun to use in play.
It's great that you got to play -- the sharing of reffing was
something that we discovered when we first played SotC; if that
contagious quality is in diaspora, that's high praise indeed. So
thanks!
Toph
