Good point, I hadn't considered it. If the netting has several anchor points, none of them in areas that are easy for the attacker to access, cutting it may make an opening for the bird but is unlikely to be more than a nuisance to the defenders. A varient of the same idea would have you using barbed wire anchored between fortified positions. At that point, even if they somehow get someone up there with wire cutters, anyone below with leather gauntlets could safely get it out of the way. > Narrow hallways are good for small parties vs. big parties, as only > parts of the big party can get at them at once. Narrow hallways generally favor the defender since there are less potential angles of attack. -Bret If you like anime and Ninja, try the free web based anime parody game Billy vs Snakeman! http://www.animecubed.com/billy/?Gun_Bunny _______________________________________________ GurpsNet-L mailing list <[email protected]> http://mail.sjgames.com/mailman/listinfo/gurpsnet-l
