[DL] House Rules

["Dom Gallegos" <stylenz@hotmail.com>]

In regards to the card segments and actions I've always made same card 
values act at the same time. The higher suit acts a split second before the 
lower. However, I allow characters to dodge and vamoose as normal. This 
creates alot of action on one card segment, shoot & dodge, but I've found it 
also greatly speeds combat. We ran through about 5 card draws in less than 
10 minutes. It also helps that players know the rules.

Something else I've done since I have two martial artists in the posse now. 
When attacking hand to hand, besides the normal rules, passive and active 
defense, I also allow players to spend their next highest card to make an 
simultaneous active attack. Using the normal TN but both attacks can hit. 
Again it sped up combat and let me bring my martial artists down a notch or 
two.

Question: Anybody done any thing else with using pace in combat?
