Doesn't matter to the Lords of Chance. Each blow is a fresh chance to fumble. Stretch it out over several hours for the movement but still have 150 MR of actual blows and you get the same results. Track 6000 of the Sun Dome Militia through 150 MR of battle collected over years and the results will be the same. That is the basis for the objection. It really is just the law of large numbers at work. A blow per MR x150 x 6000=900000 blows.
The Murphy's rules part of this is that killing yourself is felt to be a one in a million sort of thing and
here it actually is! Which turns out to be a lot more often than people think meet..
Jason has informed us that BRPCore will have a 2% fumble mechanic. So only 54 men will lose their heads to their own hands!
