ok, like the subject says, i have found some problems. i was looking at
my jyhad cards after finally getting them back, and i came upon hellhound.
i was wandering off mentally, and i had a thought : hellhound didn t make
sense. one, the name should be hellhound (ghoul) or maybe hellhound
(nonhuman ghoul) , like thadius says thadius zho (mage) , since
hellhounds are ghouled dogs. two, it needs to say may not bear equipment
or retainers or use strikes from combat cards . why? well, when was that
last time you saw a dog riding a harley and toting a bow? don t think so.
and how is spike supposed to tell jackie therman where to drive? and why
the strike restriction? i mean he doesn t have potence, so he can t use a
signpost anyway! because ghouls are supposed to have potence, so a future
card might do that right. well, that and zip gun.
and then i looked over my v : tes stuff, and i found that i had a v : tes
hellhound. i saw that the damage had been changed to hand damage,
something i hadn t thought of, but nothing else. no, wait, there was
something else! oh dear. it said can only block now. ok, so what was
this supposed to exclude? whatever it s supposed to do, it doesn t. the
old text worked.
so that s the errata i was talking about. no, wait, thought of another.
anachronism. all ranged weapons except for the bow. ok, what happens
when another traditional ranged weapon comes out? and what about
nontraditional nonranged weapons, like chainsaws? and screw that, what
about other equipment? how many (four hundred year) old farts would be ok
with using a laptop, even one as great as the mac one depicted ;( ? can
you imagine gradpa burning along the highway on a moped? ok, your grandpa
s a wacko. try thinking bob dole or the president on that harley. oh,
who s the wacko now? don t think so. and would the stoggy old prince be
very open to learning how to hack? what about a gentlemanly english
brujah trying to recruit an american gun runner? or an american gang?
and why would a caitiff with seven master disciplines be set in his ways,
or even have any idea of how to act like he s seven hundred years old?
just hand this to the irritating errata people and let them discuss my
ramblings.
bye
