Can't take cover = constant flanking.
I just use the alloy SHIVS so that they are cover.

Suddenly I found a use for snipers with Snap Shot.

Also, just checked Wizardry 8, you can't save during combat.

Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

Every time I check this thread, I wish that you could spoiler polls.

If I removed my votes, it would help significantly for me. But then I wouldn't have my votes.

Meh. Spoilered or not, I wouldn't see it unless someone called attention to it.
"Updated Topics" has been TOO good to me.

Ok, I feel like starting a new game, but my current projects are already lagging, what should I do?

A. Start a new game.
B. Don't, and keep working on my active stuff right now.
C. Be lazy and don't do either. (Not recommended)

D. All of the above at once.

A. I find that if I already have more than one project, and I'm lagging in them at all, adding more won't hurt much. I find my projects slow down because of lack of interest, not actual workload.

Basic logic precludes that option.

So far I have 3 responders.
1 is ignoring logic, another is commenting on it, and Elephant Parade is the only one to have actually given me input.

You guys are the best.

Work on your active stuff already. I find that if I do something I've lost interest in I can regain it.

Yes, but ignoring something old and trying something new for a while is a great way to regain interest and get new ideas for the old thing.

Well, I just did a bit of long-overdue work on my RtDRDD map, the far continent is now mostly complete, it actually has form now.

Ooh, in that case, C becomes D, and All of the Above becomes C, and I vote for C.

If the idea sparks your interest adn you want to do it, do it. It's mentally good to do what you want to do. Makes you more creative and such.
