Also, I never answered your Q about the books my second years are reading... Wharton, _The Age of Innocence_; Doctorow, _Ragtime_; Hurston, _Their Eyes Were Watching God_; Williams, _Stoner_; Roth, _The Plot Against America_ ... all catnip for history buffs

'A completely “average” character would be able to take... 30 “hits” of damage in the chest (30 “hits” capacity) from a high-powered rifle and have it count as a “slight” injury (less than or equal to the body area’s hit capacity) and thus have no effect on combat performance.' 😬
