Oh dear. Well, I at least have found something lacking in it. The bit about how knockback distance depends on the rolled damage bonus in meters? I think it should include a bit of clarification.
In particular, the bit about how knockback is modified by rolled damage bonuses. That's meant to reflect how a small guy hitting a big guy will move the big guy less than would happen if the big guy ran into the little one. But subtracting one's damage bonus from the knockback distance should never reduce the knockback below zero meters.
Also, it should apply in only a modified fashion to simple collisions. If I run up to push you off a cliff, then I can add my damage bonus in meters to my movement rate, and you can subtract your damage bonus as well. However, if I blindly run into you, without trying to shove you, my damage bonus should under no circumstances make you go farther, though it might offset the effect of your damage bonus. So, for collisions, the damage bonus of the target can reduce the total knockback distance, but that of the attacker cannot increase it (except by reducing the effect of the target's bonus).
Example: A horse galloping at 10 m/SR will knock Throg back 10 m, modified by Throg's damage bonus of 1D4. The horse's damage bonus, however, is 3D6, so Throg COULD conceivably go only 9 meters, but only if he rolls 4 and the horse rolls 3.
The reason I wanted to add this is because I didn't want ridiculously elastic collisions to follow from these rules.
