Proposal: Takin' Names

New Rule: Self Defense

All Crew Members will have a Defense rating in the GNDT.
When a location is attacked, all Crew Members in that location have the option to spend their Defense points to reduce the amount of damage they take in the attack. Any damage avoided in this way is spread to the other players.

Should the amount of defense points spent in total exceed the amount of potential damage the attack inflicts, including 'spread' (as outlined above), the attack resolves as normal, but the defense points are still spent.

New Crew Members begin play with the average of the three highest defense points among living crew members.

It should be noted that there is no way to gain defense points after they have been spent in a valid fashion.

Should this proposal pass, current Crew Members obtain 30 defense points.
