Stop it!! That looks great, especially the inside of the mouth, wow!<br />I really wonder how much we, as gamers, get rules wrong when playing a rules set? I know I'm good for getting close to double digits every single time! Whether it's just simple modifications up or down I forget or full on getting mechanics all wrong. But my players expect it!
