..and once you have a better melee weapon, the 'thancs make brilliant throwing weapons for an assassin.
I think you could survive, with recalling, but you would need luck. As for combat subtleties, the big one in O is to get a weapon with big dice, as the second + (to deadliness) is a percentage of dice damage, and criticals give extra dice.
Then again, I may be missing out on some combat subtleties, such as perhaps switching to a heavier weapon or launcher that may make such runs unnecessary.
