Rob:
I think I would listen to what the player wanted to do. If he
wanted to go for an augment, or use a different skill, then I would
certainly consider both. What I would do is probably let the dice
fall for the augment (as you say the impact is likely to be
relatively minor) and in the case of using some other ability for
the act of trying to kiss her, then I would make a call on whether
it required an improv mod (or even a bonus), but treat it as the
same contest. I think it is kind of fun when one party is trying to
argue and the other is ttrying to 'get romantic'. Happens in
marriages all the time!! :^)

FWIW I agree entirely. I do conceed that there are othlutions to
the same problem. Isn't Heroquest a wonderfull game!!
