Re: [BNW] On Speedsters

[Risik@aol.com]

   Usually I would allow normal acceleration and deceleration without a 
problem.  If a speedster wanted to pull something fancy like stopping on the 
edge of a cliff or making a 90 degree turn at full speed I wouldmake them 
roll either speed or possibly acrobatics.  The TN would be based on the 
difficulty of the manuver like instant stop TN 7-9 and a right turn at about 
7.

 character fairly soon.
 
 When a Speedster is running, can he stop or turn on a dime?  There is 
 nothing in the movement rules to say he can't, but it does not seem quite 
 right.  On the other hand, would calculating turning radiuses based on the 
 total velocity of the Speedster be too much to worry about?  Any suggestions 
 on which way it should be done (or perhaps a compromise of the 2?)
