Meanwhile, an uppercut or something takes more time... but has more momentum and force behind it. Not saying Chachan has more brawn than Brave (using your example), but that's still something to consider. Especially since you mentioned a Lalafell being potentially able to have more muscle per ponze due to the square/cube mass point you made.Momentum (p = m*v) and kinetic energy (K = 0.5*m*v^2) are closely related. Both are only functions of mass and speed. Force is the time rate of change of momentum. Even with a larger force, a Lalafell has a shorter arm and therefore shorter swing time. It kind of evens out.
Don't get me wrong, I know how silly it is applying physics to a game. I can let a lot of shit slide for the sake of fun RP. As far as those miners tossing the folks out of the room, I can only assume SE did it for a giggle.
