Oh, and intothat darkness, my very first Top Secret character was killed with a single round: after 2-3 hours of creating the character, he was killed in the first round of combat (about 10-15 minutes into the game) by a single bullet to the head. So TS could kill with a single round, and not only in a single round, as well.
+1Funny, I just used crossbow in RM vs. crossbow in D&D as an example, on tuesday while talking to my soon to be RM GM. I've also mentioned before that the deadliness enhances roleplay as you can't just rush into combat all the time.I think the system also makes you more interested in the world and actually living there (roleplaying) and this demands a lot from the GM as there tends to be a lot more improvisation.
Continuing the tangent: Did TS 1E have Fame & Fortune points? Well, anyway, if it did, the GM decided to not use any, the bum.

Sounds like you got hosed. The only difference between original TS 1 and Original TS 2 (everything before TS/SI) was that TS 1 had a Wresting value that you were supposed to use for something between hand-to-hand and possession combat (I don't have that book anymore, so don't remember the specifics, sorry).
