If you want brutal injuries, read the critical-hit tables in the Middle Earth Role-Playing System. Everything up to and including amputations and instant-death, IIRC.

That was -not- a "heroes kill kobolds, suffer a little bit, and instantly recover from Cure Light Wounds" game.
Wasn't that based on Rolemaster? The only game to include critical hit tables for chair legs?

Started an EA game up with Abysia. To be honest, it's not too bad. Great troops (especially burning one's) and the apprentices are good enough for research and blood hunt, especially once you can build lanterns.

For that matter - does this mean that we can look forward to Babies Crying, Inlaws, and Nagging Spouses ("Zeus, when_ are you going to finally clean up Thebes?") in Dominions 4


From what I hear it's the new events which are to be most feared, like the Inland Revenue demanding back taxes for all this land you apparently own, and Health and Safety preventing research because of the fire risks in the lab...
