once this is done i may do encumberment and once damage from objects is figured i'd love to use it. i've always wondered how much damage some one could do with a metal tankard, you can have a tavern fight with out at lest one person using a tankard as a weapon.

Of course I factored that in Lime.

A str 10 human can carry 100 lbs. at the max of their heavy load. A str 18 large humanoid could carry 600 lbs at the max oftheir heavy load. Medium weight is 60 to 500 lbs, while large weight is 500 to 4,000 lbs; the weight is decreasing drastically. A str 26 huge humanoid could carry 3,680 lbs ... when the minimum weight for a human density huge creature is 4,000 lbs.

See the problem there?
