You rolled a zero on strength... that in and of itself would kill or maim you.

pm action.

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

I think he means that as you rolled a 0 for strength, while Pariah rolled a 7, the disparity is so great that you wouldn't even get a chance at an endurance roll.

This but not entirely so, lets say you were trying to hold a heavy spike up that is poised above your gut, if you roll a one you drop it and are injured based on your end roll, if you roll a zero it impales you fully and you either die instantly or one turn later.

I was simply the reason you were holding said spike.
Heres an easier way to comprehend it, rolling a 0 in something gives the related end a roll of End:1

This, pretty much.  I actually did give you an END roll I didn't show, but I ruled that anything other than a perfect five was death.  You didn't get it.

This isn't strictly true.  Since it was an opposed strength check, the difference matters a lot.  Since it was huge, he threw you hard enough to send you all the way in.  If you hadn't been killed out right, you'd still have been bleeding to death.



If that was anything:

You should probably be more specific.
