 I don't get where the damage calculation comes from.  [[Music.c#do_improvisation|Music.c#do_improvisation]] suggests that it's rn1(6,6).  There's a define in hack.h that says rn1(x,y) is rn2(x)+(y).  rnd.c says that rn2 is just rnd(x), which picks a number between 0 and x-1.  Where's the mistake in my logic?  That would suggest a max damage of just 5+6=11.  Uck. -twinotter
