So, how about Senses affecting initiative, combat skills, scouting, etc?
Makes you also wonder: Does Strength (eg) really affect hit & damage (eg)?
I know my more intelligent Bishop fizzles fewer spells...but i haven't noticed whether Senses affects Psionics, like it claims to...
Regarding Critical Strike, i agree, it's much wimpier than i would have thought, even my Fairy Ninja with 2 Kill+ weapons and maxes in all (supposedly) related Attributes and Skills has more magic insta-kills than combat ones.
