so i have a question then.  how do you all incorporate complex actions in your scripts.  in this one, i know that i have a scene with a very complicated sequence of events, that can't be expressed more succintly, and thus goes on for awhile to explain things.  

i also realize that too much action is a terrible, terrible, terrible thing....but i'm just wondering how one would remedy certain things like this.  

action scripts are terrible to try and make succint, because you have to make the action description very short and bland ....dang:p

so yeah...thanks again to all who contributed criticism...the only thing i'm not taking into consideration  (sorry :p lol)  is shortening action description.
consider it a poetic license..hehhehe....

but what i really wanted to say here was, did anybody pick up the Cannanite allusions?

i think i should have made things simpler in that respect...
