Oh, but you can: Glass instead of plastic is more another case of some tech staying at a 1950's level.Why is everything glass and metal? Because you can't make plastics without oil. Why are cars nuclear-powered? No oil for fuel. The back story says that in the years leading up to the war, all the fossil fuels on Earth were used up, and the subsequent collapse of global economies and the scramble for resources was one of the driving factors behind the Great War.A quick look at the calendar will reveal that the developers of the original game really have Shown Their Work in regards to accurate time scale. Saturday, October 23rd, 2077 is the day the bombs fell.However, having a higher Damage Threshold (which is also tied to Endurance) means that the impact would be less likely to cause damage to the puncher himself, so it's an interesting example of a Required Secondary Power. It seems kind of strange that Unarmed would be governed by Endurance instead of Strength like Melee is.
