Description
Isn't sad to have to kill a giant to fulfill a bounty quest? Can't we all just get along with giants!?

This mod modifies the bounty quests from requiring killing a giant to merely subduing it (i.e., knocking it to its knees) by decreasing its health below 20%, similar to a brawl.

NOTE 1: You can still accidentally kill the giant, so be careful!
NOTE 2: The giant will not acquiesce, so once you knock it to its knees, you still need to run away quickly to exit combat!!

Details
1) Modifies the BQ03 Giant Bounty Quests script to allow an "OnEnterBleedout" condition to advance the quest, in addition to the existing "OnDeath" condition.
2) Modifies the Bleedout for this new class associated with giants from 10% to 20%, for more leeway in damage.
3) Modifies the various text quest-related entries to replace "slay" or "kill" with the word "subdue".

Compatibility
No known incompatibilities.


Future
Ideally, I would have liked to have the ability to bring the giant a sacrificial cow to satisfy the quest, like the farmer does. But since I am lazy, I may or may not ever get around to that.

I would be 300% more interested if I could solve quests by throwing sacrificial moomoos at them.

I agree with astral. Still nice concept.

And for some reason I imagined you walking up to a giant and chucking the cow into the giant's face. xD

Hehe...I dunno about throwing cows at the giant (although that does conjure up some funny images!), but at least I'm considering a cow in the future.

QUEST STARTED: I HAVE A GIANT BEEF WITH YOU

What? Don't look at me like that. You know you were thinking it.

I hope you will be very happy together.

No, but seriously. I love this idea. And, like eveyone else, I would love to be able to sacrifice a cow. I mean, let's be honest, who hasn't thought of sacrificing a cow now and then? Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I grew up in dairy country, I don't know.

I'm actually going to use this mod. I hate the idea of being contracted to kill this big goofy thing that doesn't hurt anyone unless someone irritates it. This will make my character happy
