> (This is a dual wield warrior with fourth attack, we'll say he gets six hits.)

> Warrior MASSACRES blah!
> Warrior lands a blow of deadly force!
> Warrior >>>ANNIHILATES<<< blah!
> Warrior lands a blow of deadly force!
> Warrior <<>> blah!
> Warrior MANGLES blah!
> Warrior MANGLES blah!
> Warrior lands a blow of deadly force!
> Warrior does UNSPEAKABLE things to blah!

> Blah is DEAD!!
> Blah's guts spill onto the ground!
> You hear Blah's deathcry.

> Ok, as INSANE as that looked, believe I have had worse happen to me.

> ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

> Now here I will do the same circumstances (dual wielding warrior with fourth attack, 6 hits total)
> But I will add this modification. (for every deathblow it subtracts an additional attack.)

> You wouldn't actually 'see' anything different.

> So, where Warrior got 6 attacks the 3 deathblows will make it so he only gets three hits.

> Blah leaves east.
> Blah has fled from battle!

> The point is that at least he could get away, unlike beforehand.
> But I have rarely seen more than 2 deathblow's in a round before.
> But this is just an example.

> Anyhow, some thoughts or additional ideas might be nice.

> Me

> P.S. Don't make assumption's, they only make an ass out of you and umption.
