Just moved down and tried these, thinking of hanging around here. Really enjoying them so far, but was wondering if it's normal that this happens before I use HT:
Alaxndr shouts, "Catch!"
Happened both with my spear and my throwing hammer. Or is there something new with HT that I didn't hear about?

You get a watered-steel katar with a chain-wrapped hilt from inside your kidskin baldric.
> put kat in my ruck
You put your katar in your hiker's rucksack.

* Moving like a striking snake, a mountain giant pounds at you. You block with a crocodile-skin buckler.
[You're bruised, nimbly balanced and opponent has slight advantage.]

* Moving in with powerful grace, a mountain giant pounds at you. You block with a crocodile-skin buckler.
[You're bruised, nimbly balanced and have slight advantage.]
> get boul
throw
As you reach for a large boulder, it cracks and rots away.
>
What are you trying to throw?
>
The mountain giant lumbers in from the down.
>
* Moving with powerful grace, a mountain giant pounds at you. You barely block with a crocodile-skin buckler. The fist lands an extremely heavy hit that explodes the chest in a shower of blood and splintered ribs.
The mountain giant beams a happy smile and exclaims, "Lunch!" she reaches down and pull a chunk out of you!
Your death cry echoes in your brain as it quickly dawns on you that you have just died! Already, you feel the tug of eternity upon your soul and you struggle to remain tied to this world.
A chill takes the seat of your soul as your remaining spiritual strength bleeds away steadily. However, you are comforted that you have curried the favor of your god, which will greatly improve the course of your resurrection or reincarnation.
Your body will decay beyond its ability to hold your soul in 52 minutes.
[You're very badly balanced]

I can think of a few explanations off the top of my head...
1. High attack roll on the part of the troll, low defence roll on the part of you.
2. Equipment in bad repair.
3. Last maneuver was lunge or something equally defence penalizing.
Its hard to know without more data, but I am reasonably certain they've finally scoured out all the open rolls in the system.

Interesting.
>>The mountain giant beams a happy smile and exclaims, "Lunch!" she reaches down and pull a chunk out of you!
I think there should be an 's' at the end of pull in that sentence.

Also, you were bruised prior to that hit, did you have damage to your chest already?
I can have 100% health but gaping wounds to the chest (tended) and something can land a light hit to my chest and it explodes.
