Nope, have never heard of that. but now i shall look for a copy. looks interesting :D Thanks.

It was an introductory game for a Darkamtter campaign.

I set some players lose in a graveyard populated by Zombies, and some form of glowing light (alien probe). but both players kept rolling laughably bad throws and nearly died :( :lol:

Depends on the bug, things like flying ants and termite's wings are pretty reflective. Making taking pictures of them hard...

The reflections from your flash at that level makes it really plausible it just didn't focus enough incorrectly giving you round shiny bodies.

Not always. Large aperture will cause it to light up as a nice large circle.

Ah - then that is what it could be. Thanks. I will google it and see if that is backed up with data.
