    I'm a fan of the bit of candle and inner tube trick. Usually use a lighter to start the fire, and have a spare in the medical kit.

    On the bright side, ... I suppose things can only get better.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    GM you are the sort of person that notices a tall hooded figure with a scythe trailing him and thinks, "Boy, I'm sure glad I'm not a stalk of wheat". Bloody optimist!
    sako75 and gadgetman like this.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Guilty as charged! Though to be honest I'd probably hope he would approach me in a menacing manner. Any excuse to disarm him as I've been looking for a nice operable scythe for years; just so hard to come by. Yes I know how to use one.

    My grand father had one. He kept it well honed and used it a lot. I could never get the hang of it.
