A nice and simple approach. I'm just a little concerned, as per Roger's
post, this would still make them a little too effective vs screens
(though
less effective than in the original proposal at least). I wouldn't like
anyone to think that I'm out to create another weapon which renders
screens
completely pointless ;-).

Thanks for commenting Brendan, it is appreciated.

Cheers,
