Erk.. I forgot about that aspect of melee. Okay, sounds
good based on your interpretation of the physical
interacting with the astral.

That does make pretty much sense I guess. However, I probably wouldn't
allow just any kind of random, unintentional contact to do damage. If the
physad can(somehow) sense the astral bugger and is making a directed attack
against that target then that would properly focus his will. OTOH, a mage
running into a FAB wall, or a physad wildly swinging a FAB-club around in
the hopes of hitting an astral that he THINKS is there would be an entirely
different matter, IMHO.
