I'm currently playing a character specializing in unarmed combat, and I'm using the HtH Evade perk. To test my ability to dodge attacks, I surrounded myself with several enemies and skipped my turn, which gave me 85 AC. Then I spent my next turn using up all of my action points, which gave me...

Thanks for the explanation. But it seems rather strange that you need skill points before you can play the slot machines, because I don't see why it's more complicated than craps or roulette. Why can't you simply ask the pit boss or maybe even the bartender if you don't understand how to play...

It's 10%. Is there a minimum before I can insert a coin and pull a little lever?

I'm using the standard installation of Fallout Fixt 6.7.3 and I'm getting a strange response from Garl in the Khan camp. When I first talk to Garl, I tell him that I'm an explorer, so he gets upset and shoots me. Once. Then he breaks off combat and pretends nothing happened. I can still talk...

When I first talk to Garl, the leader of the Khans, I tell him that I'm an explorer, so he gets upset and shoots me. Once. Then he breaks off combat and pretends nothing happened. I can still talk and barter with him, and none of the other raiders pay any attention to me. Is this supposed to...
