Yeah, I was mostly joking. If you were going to do that it would have to be
something much simpler like, once any player has lost half of his units, he
rolls 1d6 for every remaining unit under his control at the beginning of
each turn. Results as follows:
1: Unit Freaks Out
2-4: Unit considers firing madly in all directions,
but decides against it
5-6: Unit considers breaching the hull,
but decides against it
Now if any of the conditions on my list are true, then results as follows:
1: Unit Freaks Out
2-4: Unit maintains control of bladder
5-6: Unit maintains control of bladder AND bowels
If the unit is in a situation that is particularly disgusting or seems
extra-horrifying, then use these results instead:
1: Unit Freaks Out
2-4: Unit refrains from projectile vomiting in terror
5-6: Unit also refrains from normal vomiting in nervousness

Well I used to like Shaun a lot better before he started deleting every
email I sent to him without bothering to read it. I'm sure it's just a
subconscious compulsion, out of guilt for never publishing the "Ghoirboy"
chronicle.
As at least a couple of you may be aware, my love is based entirely on the
simple standard of who has the finest hardwood floors. Shallow, I know, but
I can't deny my basic instincts.
- Mike.
