Everyone loves getting a crit. However, crits can also be boring. They're just damage. Characters can't bleed to death or break a bone or lose a limb. They have no cinematic impact. They can never be spectacular. No more. Introducing Critical Matters, a complete Critical Effects system. We know you like to keep your game moving, but we also know you don't mind leaning forward in anticipation as you wait to see what the critical is. Would you rather say, "That twenty damage," or would you rather say: "Blow to collarbone leaves foe with a bruise, a â2 penalty, and the need for strong drink." "Point slides into upper abdomen, nicking several important organs and arteries. Thatâs the whole shooting match. Foe has 8 rounds to wonder how bad it is before he dies. Stunned for 7 rounds. Use the last one wisely." "Neatly remove foeâs head. You have just enough time left in the attack to strike a pose." "Thunk. Wait for the pain. Wait for it. There it is." "Hack cuts foeâs neck. Doesnât hit anything too major, but thereâs a lot of blood. Foe is dazed for 1 round as he works out that heâs only bleeding every hour." "Point slices foeâs spine. He collapses, paralyzed from the waist down. He nudges his legs, as if to restart them. Stunned for 1 round, dazed for 3 more. Bleed every round." "Blow chips off a piece of the foeâs xiphoid process. The foe feels a slight discomfort under his sternum. Foe has 10 rounds of movement until death. Any round when he doesnât move his chest doesnât count. Every round where he moves causes increasing discomfort. â1 per round of movement." "Pound foe in the stomach. Foe seems uninjured but foe receives a â1 penalty next round from the pain. The penalty increases one every round until it hits â10, then it drops one a round every round after that." "Blow to foeâs spine causes a â2 penalty from the searing pain. If not magically healed, the foe will be able to predict rain." "Blow is so devastating that foeâs arms are only technically still attached to his body.".

near-mint condition.

games in this condition may be played but show little to no wear.

creases or slight corner wear. Absolutely no tears and no marks, a collectible
condition.

stain, etc. Complete and very useable.
*Fair Very well used, but complete and useable. May have flaws such as tears,
pen marks or highlighting, large creases, stains, marks, a loose map, etc.
*PoorExtremely well used and has major flaws, which may be too numerous to
mention. Item is complete unless noted.
