Default carrying gear

I am thinking about just counting and adding up the bulk stats on all weapons and gear carried and compare this to the agility score for a modifier .

then the murphy rolls will be made as a modified agility check by the player whenever making a move that is more complicate dthan running or walking on a straight road .

Sounds good to me; Straight forward, to the point and playable.

If an amputee character's prosthetic limb weighs less than the limb it replaces does the character get an allowable encumbrance bonus equal to the difference?

I guess it depends on the usability of the prosthetic limb, and whether it is powered or not. A self powered but heavy limb could more than weigh up for a regular limb, while a poorly made, yet light weight limb could give you a negative encumbrance modifier (able to carry less weight).

Well, strange things do happen:

Injured deer finds vet

A US vet was amazed when an injured wild deer burst into the building where his clinic is based.

A manager at a PetSmart store in Rossford, near Toledo, Ohio, opened a door and spotted the wounded deer outside.

The animal, which was lying in a pool of bloody snow, jumped up and ran through the just opened door, reports the Toledo Blade.

Once inside, the female deer lay down on the floor as blood dripped from her left hind leg, recalled store Manager Trudi Urie.

She called Dr Agustin Cuesta, who works in the veterinary clinic inside PetSmart, who was able to treat the deer's injury and return her to the wild.

"Of all the places to run into, a pet store that has vets in it," said Ms Urie.

Dr Cuesta said the deer had suffered two or three deep cuts and that bone was showing through the fur. He could not determine what caused the injury.

He placed a numbing agent on the wounds before closing the wounds with dissolvable stitches, while covering the deer's head with a towel to stop her panicking.

"We took off the towel from her eyes and slowly she got to her feet," Dr. Cuesta said. "She stood frozen for a few seconds, but after that she ran out of the store."
