Lev,

I haven't run a game of HOE yet but I've been doing a lot of reading.
I just finished "Children of the Atom" and as far as I can tell your
character can mutate as many times as the Marshall wants.  He'll either
end up a trog or dead.

And now a question of my own.  Has anyone read any info concerning the
use of shields in hand-to-hand combat?  How are they used, do you need a
skill, and so on.

Thanks,
