Rules and Options
Rules and Options The author has attempted to draw as much as possible from the guidelines provided in the 5th edition Players Handbooks and Dungeon Master's Guide. Statistics for weapons listed in the Dungeon Master's Guide were used to develop the damage scales used in this book. Interestingly, these scales correspond fairly well with the values listed in the d20 Modern books. Game masters should feel free to modify any of the statistics or optional rules in this book as necessary. It is important to remember that Dungeons and Dragons abstracts combat to a degree, and does so more than many other game systems, in the name of playability. For this reason, the subtle differences that exist between many firearms will often drop below what might be called a "horizon of granularity." In D&D, for example, two pistols that real world shooters could spend hours discussing, debating how a few extra ounces of weight or different barrel lengths might affect accuracy, or how different kinds of ammunition (soft-nosed, armor-piercing, etc.) might affect damage, may be, in game terms, almost identical. This is neither good nor bad; it is just the way Dungeons and Dragons handles such things. Who can use firearms? Firearms are assumed to be martial ranged weapons. Characters from worlds where firearms are common and who can use martial ranged weapons will be proficient in them. Anyone else will have to train to gain proficiency— the specifics are left to individual game masters. Optionally, the game master may also allow characters with individual weapon proficiencies to trade one proficiency for an equivalent one at the time of character creation (e.g., monks can trade shortswords for one specific martial melee weapon like a war scythe, rogues can trade hand crossbows for one kind of firearm like a Glock 17 pistol, etc.). -

That moment when an author dots the last period to his manuscript, and then rises up from the study-chair to shake its many and bulky pages together is almost as exciting an occasion as -when he takes a quire or so of foolscap and sits down to write the first line of it. Many and mingled feelings pervade his mind, and hope and fear vie with one another and alternately overcome one another, until at length the author finds some slight relief for his feelings and a kind of excuse for his book, by writing a preface, in which he states briefly the nature and character of the work, and begs the pardon of the reader for his presumption in undertaking it. A winter in Kashmir must be experienced to be realised. -

In the past few decades, however, these mangrove forests have been largely degraded and destroyed during the process of development. The negative environmental and socio-economic impacts on mangrove ecosystems have led many government and non- government agencies, together with civil societies, to launch mangrove conservation and rehabilitation programmes, especially during the 1990s. In the course of such activities, programme staff have faced continual difficulties in identifying plant species growing in the field. Despite a wide availability of mangrove guidebooks in Southeast Asia, none of these sufficiently cover species that, though often associated with mangroves, are not confined to this habitat. -

BERNSTEIN POISONS AND ANTIDOTES AMONG THE TAMAN OF WEST KALIMANTAN, INDONESIA* Introduction This article addresses a secretive but not specialized domain of medical knowledge in Taman society: folk medicines used to cure illnesses causcd by poisoning. Poisoning is not the primary explanation for illness among the Taman; ralher spirit intrusion, intrusion of an object sent by a spirit, or the capture of the soul by a spirit, explains the majority of illness, according to the native belief system. Because of the inclination to think of illness as being caused by spirits, the first response to illness is usually to contract a simple therapy from a nearby shaman (balien) in which a medicinal stone dipped in an herb is stroked over the body to remove the object. It is also common for an ailing person to seek government medicine in the form of a ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My research in Indonesia from August 1985 to February 1987 and August 1987 to February 1988 was supported by fellowships from the National Institute of Mental Health and the Social Science Research Council with the American Council of Learned Societies, under the sponsorship of the Indonesian Institute of Science (Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia) and the Environmental Studies Center of Gadjah Mada University. -
