Sounds pretty cool, right? Until you factor in collateral damage, and the fact that because it was a surprise effect, there was no chance to modify the shape of that area. Friendly fire, anyone?
So even critical successes can have deleterious effects, in the same way that a crit fail might have effects that could be beneficial.

So, don't just throw the idea out there, develop it. **teasing grin**
You build a framework, fill in some ideas, then see where someone else can spark off of your idea, and add to it or like it as it is, or what have you.
In the end, the idea here is to share ideas so that others can steal it directly, or be inspired by it and make it fit their own needs by adding their own touch.
