Here's a question for you guys. How many of you have introduced environmental hazards into your games? Things like extreme weather, fire, smoke, toxic fumes, etc.?

I have. It's always a smart idea to include environmental hazards.

Just of of curiosity, how do you handle them, and are they capable of inflicting damage to characters?

Exceptionally hot or cold temperature might inflict a point of damage to characters between turns (unless they have Adaptation, etc.)

Exceptionally cloudy conditions could mirror the hazards of Darkness Control.

Etc.

Just out of curiosity, would any of you guys be interested in seeing a little table I've put together with my take on various weather conditions?

I'd love to see it.  It's something I've tried, but never really been successful with.
