    Foxx! reacted to Legendsmiths in Shooting Through Water   
    Mythbusters just confirmed the myth of water protecting you from bullets.
     
    At 14" of vertical depth (about 2' at angle) a gun fired at a 23 degree angle was unable to harm a person. Even a .50 cal rifle. The rounds disintigrated before reaching the ballistics gel.
     
    It would seem then that .6m of water provides 18 rPD vs. Bullets (and who knows what else).
     
    They also tried 5.56 and .308, both of which disintigrated. Lower velocity rounds actually seemed to fair better... a 9mm was able to be lethal at 7'.
     
    Interesting.

    Re: Haymaker a Grabbed target
     
    As a default, no, because Haymaker can’t be combined with other Combat Maneuvers except as indicated in the rules (see 5ER 389). But of course the GM can allow it if he thinks it wouldn’t be abusive or problematic to do so.

    Foxx! reacted to Super Squirrel in Longest Running Thread EVER   
    This is an experiment. What we have is an attempt by me to create the longest running, NON game thread. Our record to beat, is the Catsuit thread. Quite a challange. And we are going to have to keep this thing as best we can. Threads and Tangents are welcome. Getting it locked is not desired. Now all we need is a launching point.
     
    What does everyone feel about the Red Sox "Curse"? And are you aware that this year Stephen King is going to every game and will be writing a book about the season.
