Yeah. I liked Adam W's suggest of being able to 'pile on' and grab hold to
restrain (and move) a player. One on one (discounting equipment), your
even (and its upto chance), you need odds on your side (and thus,
coordination amidst team members)
Also objects to do this. Handcuffs to immobilise hands, shackles to slow
down movement (and ways to bind them to stationary objects).

Not sure about disease, but I quite like poison, and 'unarmed' attacks
which are less lethal. :) Cackle.

Yeah. Beginning to think along custom client lines for this thing (a
fairly small client download, if it happens), and allowing the client to
be extensible in various ways (eg having it pop up a 'scanner' window if
you have a suitable advanced scanner item, and so forth). This could
really add a lot to the game. Also considering rudimentary graphics.
