that really helps me out.  for some reason i was reading hand to hand weapons as "take the highest single die" for both your STR roll and the weapon damage roll (then adding them together of course).  the example doesn't illustrate it very well by using a 1d6 as the weapon damage roll....

so an MA who whacks someone in the head would do STR(highest single roll)+3d6(add all three rolls together)?  
the same as someone stabbing another person in the head with a knife?

what determines an MA's ROF? Quickness?  MA trait level?  it would seem to me that a good MA could get more than one punch or kick off in one action. 

have another Q but i'll start a new thread as it veers wildly from this topic, but then comes back to it at the end. hehe
