Damage

Damage is a measurement of how harmful an attack is to a character. When a character takes Damage, it is subtracted from his or her Hit Points. Damage will cause death when a character's hit points reach -20. Non-human critters die when their Hit Points reach 0.

All Weapons have base damage values. But the final damage delivered to the target, can be modified by:

• Critical Hit
• The deterioration of the target's armor
• Damage Modifier of the ammunition
• Damage Resistance modifier of the target's armor or ammo
• Damage Threshold of the target's armor
• Perks (Bonus HtH Damage, Bonus Ranged Damage, Toughness, ...)
• Traits (Finesse, Heavy Handed)

Damage type:

• Normal
• Laser
• Fire
• Plasma
• Explode
• Electrical
• EMP
