A gun is a gun

(1/1)

bull30548:
So I am reading Gun Heaven 2 and there flavor text like this gun malfunctions a lot.  I like this it really reminds me of the second edition books (even some of the first) where there were quotes about the equipment in question.  I realized though that it just flavor text because there no critical failure or way to demonstrate the drawbacks in the flavor text.   Anybody got some thoughts on this?

Ruski:
just throw it in with any glitch.
malfunction drills are something people who live by the gun practice. I.E. someone with a (gun) skill of 3+
so you can clear a missfire if you practise regular like. otherwise you've got a hunk of 'gonna get yourself killed' in your hand.

Yogi:
Yeah makes sense. As far as glitches go if you are rolling a decent amount of dice your chances of getting a glitch is low.  One can say that because of their skill the know about taking care of their equipment to keep in in working order.
