Alternative Damage System – ORE This alternative rule grants groups the ability to remove hit locations and use the height of an attack to determine the severity of the wound caused. In the Alternate Damage system for ORE, height is used to represent the severity of the wound, rather than the hit location. In this system, location is not tracked (unless the player chooses to sacrifice a limb to the damage, see below). There would be four wound severities: Superficial, Serious, Critical, and Mortal. The heights and number of wound boxes are as follows: Mortal 10 Right Arm Left Arm Critical 8 – 9 Serious 5 – 7 Right Leg Left Leg Superfici al 1 – 4 Characters suffer the following penalties when they have all damage boxes in the appropriate category filled with Killing Damage. The character suffers the most severe penalties for the damage they have taken. Thus, a character with one point of Killing Damage in Critical and Superficial would be at -1d to all actions, while a character with two Shock in Critical and one Killing in Serious would only have -1d to all concentration actions. Mortal: Dead Critical: -1d to all actions Serious: -1d to concentration actions Superficial: -1d to physical actions Damage rolls up the chart, so a character that takes 5 killing and 5 Shock superficially would fill in five killing, use two points of shock to fill the last box in Superficial, and then put three points of Shock in the Serious damage line. This character would suffer a -1d penalty to all physical actions. Damage Modification (Optional) As a further option, groups may choose to switch Weapon Damage to a flat scale with this (remove the width bonus to all weapons). This depends on how deadly you want things to be. If you remove W from damage, default all W's in the listed Weapon Damages to 2. This is really up to style of game you want. Removing the width from damage "standardizes" the system, leaving width solely an aspect of speed.
