Extensive research and analysis have been invested into creating a innovative system that delivers the satisfaction of thinking, "Yeah, this is how it would happen. If I ever took on an Orc with layered armor with my trusty .44 Magnum revolver in real life, this is exactly how it would happen." We strive to deliver plausibility to discerning minds.
