Hey Everybody. I am running Hell's Rebels for a group and there is a creature that factors into part of the second book that has an ability where it causes a character to become addicted to a drug (in this case Opium). I was looking through the rules for addiction and there seems that there may be a typo... or I'm just continually misreading them.

According to the rules there are three kinds of addiction (minor, moderate and severe) which are noted next to the save for that drug to avoid addiction.

None of the drugs actually have a 'severe' addiction rating however. They all have ratings of 'major'.

I guess the answer is pretty obvious but I was just going to ask.

Does major = severe in this case? Is that the way others have been doing it or have I been reading the rules wrong?


That's is what my group assumed when we ran into the same problem a few months ago.
