We don't want to have vuln/resist/immunity flags any longer. We want a sliding scale of integers, and a way for that to keep some semblance of balance with the way things are now. This is the biggest piece of the problem.

All of the rules CF has for what you can hold in your second hand makes this a royal pain in the ass. If I let you hold whatever the hell you want in there, it becomes mostly trivial (and fairly stupid in my opinion).

So you opt to change the code in the damage, and let the player be as stupid as they like. We opt to allow them only to use what is useful and take the burden on ourselves to code it.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!
