These are mainly minor annoyances, but a few of them are significant to actually cause me trouble when hunting.
1> When I'm in <BLOCK> mode, I try to block with my shield. However, when I don't have a shield out, it switches me to <DODGE>. This, however, can be annoying, as when I pull my shield back out, I continue trying to dodge.
It would be nice if, when in <BLOCK> mode, I'd try to block if I had a shield out, and dodge if I didn't. Then, when I pull my shield back out, I'm still in <BLOCK> mode, and try to block again. Or I could choose priorities, so I'd block if I had a shield out, but if I didn't, I'd try to parry. If I didn't have a weapon out, my last resort would be to try to dodge.
Of course, Troopers should be able to use all three at once...
2> If you try to shield block, and you still get hit, it would be cool to see messaging describing how much of the blow your defense avoided, and how much your armor absorbed (i'm assuming your defense avoids damage and your armor absorbes it for the moment). This way, it's easier to monitor exactly what's going on and test different armors and shields.
3> I'd like to be able to see the hinderance of armor and shields with appraissal.
I had more, but I forgot. I'll remember them later.

#1 and #3, done. The second, however, will take much more work and should wait for a while. Enjoy. _________________ "Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something." -- Plato

Two more things:
Combat verbs should default to live creatures.
Skin and search should default to dead creatures.
