Voted choice the second.
Eyes without life, maggot-ridden corpses, mountains of skulls... these are a few of my favourite things.

Hell yea, I use 'em! By using the knock down charts, (along with a little knock-BACK) it helps keep the game from feeling static. Especially since I like to use miniatures and a hex map, it adds to the feel of action.

Yup, I use them. very cinematic to knock everyone around with explosions and supernatural punches, fun too. :D
Personally, I think that we have a duty as role-players to try to anchor each other to reality a bit. To keep other gamers from being complete freaks and weirdos, or even psychopaths, if we can. Killer Cyborg
