New Unarmed Combat Talents
We’ve hit the $235k stretch goal and the new UC Talents have been posted to the TFT website. I haven’t had a chance for an in-depth look yet but I’m pleased the IQ requirements have not been dumbed down; UCV still requires IQ14 etc.
I also think Brawling is a nice, cheap option at IQ7, cost 1. |

Does unarmed damage scale with ST?
UC I says, "Regular bare-hands damage is 1d-4" but Guy said the rules say it depends on ST.
Can we get clarification on this? |

Re: New Unarmed Combat Talents
Also, all 40-point UC V characters have exactly the same attributes.
This seems to... lack variety. |

Re: New Unarmed Combat Talents
I would think that, due to their rarity, that won't really be an issue. If you're running a game based around Kung Fu masters you'll need a different set of rules (or at least extensive house rules.)

EDIT: d'oh, I apparently have a common misunderstanding of the phrase :). Anyway, saying it's not an issue doesn't address my point in any way. Players who make UC V characters ought to have some freedom in their builds. Players with 40-point wizards certainly do! |

Re: New Unarmed Combat Talents
I have to keep reminding myself TFT isn't GURPS. This is one of the problems with a simple system. But for my purposes now, TFT is better than GURPS for the people and plans we have.
House rules to the rescue I suppose! |
