Oh wow, saw this thread bumped, and started at the beginning, then realized I was in a months old section. Jumped to the bump instead. 
Anyway, only point that I would like to bring up, (and it may have been brought up months ago) is to say that the miner bros from 1.0 don't count as an example because they're an extraordinary pair of individuals, i.e. full-time miners are badass dudes. Tis true that their strength would be attributed to their employment, but it still proves the point that with training, lalafell can be very strong. You don't have to be a miner to strength train.
Also, larger =/= strength. I'm just under 5' 6" in real life, and I can handle with ease folk who not only tower over me, but have a much larger frame as well. Why? Not because I'm an x-mutant (I wish. xD ) but because it's simple... I've trained, they haven't lol.
The point I'm making is, if a lalafell says they deliver a powerful punch to your face, don't shrug it off. That's just ridiculous, it's going to hurt you, and if the character had enough strength training, could even break your jaw. On the flipside however, as you so well pointed out with the bump video Warren, basic physics are in play in this game. So if you're playing a lalafell, and a larger race kicks you, you're not just going to absorb the blow, you're going to be knocked back. If it's a powerful kick, you may fly some distance through the air, reminiscent of the bumped video. xD
