Then I suggest the tagline be:

(For discussions unrelated to gaming. Anything else goes.)

Kthx.

@thenomain I think in general it is a net positive. Many people may not have liked the angry and frothy manner in which it was done, and yeah there was at times a tenancy to dogpile and tear people apart over the littlest thing (something that I do think has become less of a thing on MSB and as many of us have grown) i think that this communities intolerance of staff cheating and bullshit is an incredibly good thing.

@tyche What is the value of the Spectre book for Wraith at this point? Or the Changeling Tarot deck? The book was $120 at one point. I doubt it is $30 now. And given that the contents of the book are otherwise available, its only market is those who want the cover. So much smaller group, but sometimes willing to pay the ridiculous prices.

ETA: Hey, well I found Dark Reflections: Spectres at one place for $131 I am in the money.

To elaborate a bit more, If a character opts to use the Hold Maneuver in a grapple, both characters lose their defense. While not entirely unclear, I don't personally believe that someone under the effect of Hold would be subject to a killing blow; it takes more than a lack of Defense for that. However, from a Hold one can apply the Restrain Maneuver, which may be enough.
