That my friend is what I REALLY hate about Rhinos!! If I hit the fighter
next to you with a good shot and he doesnt call it..then I can and will
crank it up. The point to this is that you... total innocent and willing to
acknowledge a standard killing blow, are not going to get the benifit of the
doubt. I will more than likely hit you just as hard as I HAD to hit him,
just because its very hard to come back down once you have gotten jacked up
that far. I have on more than one occasion had the breath knocked out of me
by a spearman who could not get the guy in the shield wall next to me to
call a shot. I know this speaks of a lack of control, but we are only human
and in the heat of battle, sometimes its very easy to lump everyone
together.
