well, OERJAN, lets see here: this is in response to your post titled
POLITICIANS AND OTHERS IN GAMING.
(see attached post)
LASERLIGHT figured it out without even breaking a sweat, so EVERYONE is
not in the dark.
BUT if you want to know MORE about TONY BATH's NPC developement
thingy, trot out and buy, beg or borrow a book called WARGAMES
CAMPAIGNS by TONY BATH. originallY published by WARGAMES RESEARCH
GROUP.
it has been around for more tha 30 years, and is problably in print
again, if not i am sure EBAY can come up with one.

The *GM of your gaming group*, who has access to your "complete
personality
profile", can determine exactly how the NPC will react.
However, AFAIK no one of us others here on the GZG mailing list is the
GM
of your gaming group.
Therefore we do not have access to your "complete personality profile",
and
thus you cannot use this "shorthand" on this list and expect to be
understood. If you want us to understand what you're talking about, you
have to include *all* the relevant data - not just an obscure "verbal
shorthand".
Oh, and you also need to provide the GZG gaming scenario you're talking
about :-/
