Re: [RPG]: Dead of Night, reviewed by jhkim (4/3)

Thanks for the review John!

Just one comment:

Quote:
Unfortunately, voluntarily spending Survival Points rarely seems worth it in strategic terms. For example, if you fail a combat roll, you will lose a Survival Point. So spending a Survival Point for a reroll is almost certainly not going to help. The same applies for flipping an attribute pair.
But in spending a Survival Point to reroll, you might then win and force the opponent to lose a Survival Point, so you'd both lose one instead of just you. Or, of course, you might end up losing 2!
