In the main book, it says that if I pick up a DEF 5, Body 5 object and hit someone with it the maximum damage it can do is 10d6.
So what I was wondering, is this 10d6 flat, or is it 10d6 on top of my Str???
If it's the former it seems broken, as if I'm Str 60 I'd be better off just punching the guy as opposed to hitting him with a telegraph pole which seems incongruous with the comics, etc. that the rules are based upon.
I think the latter makes more sense where, I could do up to 10d6 more but limited to double my Str damage or something like that similar to the way Str adds to a HKA. So my Str 60 character could hit someone for up to 22d6 with this object (albeit breaking it in the process!)
Seeing as most clubs, etc. are bought as extra HA, rather than a Baseball Bat having DEF 3, Body 3 so the maximum you can do with it is 6d6, limited by Str!!!

Hi there.
Just wanted to ask a quick question.
In the main book, it says that if I pick up a DEF 5, Body 5 object and hit someone with it the maximum damage it can do is 10d6.
So what I was wondering, is this 10d6 flat, or is it 10d6 on top of my Str???

Thanks in advance!
