Ammo Stack does not have to match Weapon

That's hilarious. Imagine one with a single shotgun and a full stack of plasma cells =)

That's hilarious. Imagine one with a single shotgun and a full stack of plasma cells =)

And a crowbar to defend himself.

Scientist only levels should have the level feeling "You hear... nothing..."

And another one.

Universal Bayonet
/
2d5 Physical damage
Goes to prepared slot on pick-up
Cannot be unequipped/swapped
Grants two extra levels of Brute while in the prepared slot
Counts as a blade for MMB

[Creepy]

Except since it doesn't add Juggler and can't be swapped, you can't actually use it. =B

Yannow, unless you took Juggler on your own.

Modified to grant bonus to brute while prepared

[AlterAsc]

Well, since it's a bayonet it should be used automatically when you try to hit with non-melee weapon regardless of Juggler.

[raekuul]

Well that's why it adds two levels of brute on top of whatever you've already got :p

Impossible Difficulty
"A mode that lives up to its name."
You're given three warnings when you start Impossible mode.
"I'm warning you, there's no point playing this. Continue? [Y/N]"
"Why did you press yes? You can't win! It's called Impossible for a reason! Continue? [Y/N]"
"Fine then, but don't come crying to me when you realise it's actually Impossible. Continue (last chance!)? [Y/N]

If you so choose to continue into Impossible mode, the game starts as normal. Ten seconds in, the game illustrates why Impossible mode really is impossible by hitting Phobos with a gigantic meteor half its size, killing you and everything on it.

Hey, that just means you need to either descend to Deimos or find Invulnerability globe in 10 seconds.Someone will surely manage.

Ten game seconds :D

[AlterAsc]

With some unholy power far beyond our grasp someone will do even that.

Rocket Fist
\
6d6 Fire damage, 4 radius
Single-fire clip, uses rockets for ammunition
Melee weapon with fire-based knockback.
Player is immune to the damage from the point-blank explosion but not the knockback

This will be cool for smashing through walls, knocking around demons and lost souls, and punching entire crowds. It's terrible at fighting anything else. Melee with knockback is a terrible idea. And it requires ammo and reloading, for maximized awkwardness.

On the other hand, you punch people with rockets. Fuck yeah!
