a) impossible for a mod to do,
b) highly unrealistic,
c) attracts a kind of audience i don't really want to attract

I agree about a and c, but "simple" things like a weapon sticking inside a player when you stab them (impaling) is realistic.

Our current mechanic is funny, they just drop dead and that's it.

Too bad the game isn't really dynamic to support these.

And getting hit by a teammate, through the falling dead corpse of an enemy is even more fun.

eww, fully supporting physics. Why would you want that in a game? If I want to know what really happens when I fall 15 feet, I'd jump off a roof.

Yah but how sick would that be if catapults actually broke down walls....Red Faction style.

I think there were some broken walls made by Meow I believe, not really Red Faction but it is something :)

Personally I prefer the lowering system currently in place. It may not look realistic, but it works realistic enough.  Doing realistic damage in Warband would take many versions for every scene prop, otherwise some things wouldn't react at all when shot. Perhaps a combination would be nice though.

The problem with the lowering system currently in place though, is that it glitches the map when used on the first round. Since then it is banned on NA_Siege.

There is no round in Strategus so lowering system will work.
Still i dunno how it will unbalance siege, a castle without wall will be hard to defend.

Different dying animations including cuttable body parts can be added i assume. Its happening only when you die.

Dude, if your arm gets chopped off you're basically dead, doesn't matter what you are wielding.
