Yeah.... it's not something I've ever tried, but I can see the attraction from the description. How to make it work in PBeM, though? The best possibility I can see is for the player to list the augments they want to apply in order of importance, then teh GM puts them on the scales one by one, and we know which one tipped the balance.
Could someone run through exactly how it's meant to work again, please? At what point do you stop adding augments? Does each side take turns? And is it perhaps worth putting a few in to start with, when you know you're definitely going to be using them (you spent most of yesterday persuading the clan to give you community support, I think you might use it...), then adding "extras" post-roll?
