The only thing is, that particle cannon is the same whether it is Rambo wielding it, or Waldo :P

I think you missed my whole post, except the word "complicated". ;)

Shevegen complains that a binary "can or can't carry" model of encumbrance is simpler than real life, (example of lady struggling with a bag of rice.)

I respond to Shevegen and say that all the game rules are simpler than the reality that they correspond to, so it's irrelevant to point that out.

nemchenk:
Heh :P I was using selective perception! :)


Good night, eleazar!

Surrealistik:
I think you're ignoring (or forgetting) that there are various degrees of simplification and abstraction, thus it is not irrelevant to point out the oversimplicity of a binary model. Furthermore, not only is such a solution unacceptably unrealistic but it is also more prohibitive, in that a graduated encumbrance system permits more choices.
