Please tell me where in the rules it says a 10d6 attack can be parried by a 1d6 attack and I'll check and make sure it's changed when (if) anything happens...

... Yep, that's the paragraph I was using. And Energy Attack always seemed like a Missile Mode attack. I'll go a step further, though, and say that I don't...

The Vigour levels idea sounds good for Supervisor-driven plot devices, which would five higher-Vigour characters a chance to find their way out of the...

Personally I tend to d20 rolls under Vigour for poison (which CAN do HTK damage) and something like 2d6HTC per frame/action/round for knockout gas - but all...
