On table 2, why did you alternate between minor and major like that?
If you roll a 3 with a light wound you will be louder than if you
had a medium? The odds might work out, but it seems counter-intuitive.
I like the spin. :-)
You could end up with some really cool PhysAd fights, but what about
basing it on something like (Power - Body)*45 instead? That way,
it still accounts for mass (sorta), but you can have people spin
around even if they don't take any serious damage... I guess it's
up to the style of game you run.
Overall, cool.

Well, I'd suggest not making two non-obvious errors in the URL... ;-)
First, it should be Time*s*Square, and the Second is that it should
be 6*9*90. So the correct URL is:

(isn't cut & paste fun? :-)
