Encumbrance threshold
pg. 152 says a character looses their free maneuver when their encumbrance equals their Brawn rating. Is this a typo, Do they mean Brawn Threshold?
If you read it carefully it says "Also, if a character is encumbered by an amount equal to or greater than his Brawn rating, he no longer earns a free maneuver each turn." and in the section before that it says "A total encumbrance value over the threshold means the hero is 'encumbered'"
These together mean that a character isn't encumbered until passing the threshold, and when the amount past the threshold is equal to or greater than their Brawn rating, they lose the free maneuver.
The words involved are all close enough to make it kind of confusing.
Edited by SinosaurWhen you're carrying more encumbrance than your brawn rating + 5 you're encumbered. When you carry your brawn rating over and above that (so 2x Brawn Rating + 5) you lose your free manoeuvre. So with a brawn rating of 3,it takes 11 encumbrance to lose your manoeuvre.
At least how I read it.
