     Hm.  Philosophy time, I suppose.  High fatality?  What's wrong
with burning and pillaging (no, no, no...first you pillage, *then* you
burn--get it right)?  I had a group of players who did mostly that, and
little else.  I thought it was a lot of fun, personally.

     Of *course* most people in my game walked around armed all the
time, PC and NPC alike.  After all, there were people like my PCs
wandering around loose (you know what the Zhodani say about the
Imperium, heh, heh, heh).  They called themselves the "Rabid Thunder-
Weasels Mercenary Legion."  They'd do literally *anything*, if the
price was right.  And it suited them.  At the moment.  And something
more fun didn't come along in the meantime.  Situational ethics.  Lots
of fun...  ;-)

     Don't even ask me about the battle cry...  ;-)
