Advanced Hit Location Table


Top level Rules


While Rune Quest is more realistic than many games by actually alowing a character to be hit in a specific area, the actual hit locations are still a bit restrictive for the gamer in search of more realistic gaming.

To remain within the context of standard Rune Quest rules, the existing hit location table has been used. Added to the table is a sub table breaking down each hit area into four more precise locations. to use teh table, roll the normal D20 for area and roll a D4 for specific location. Most characters have a damage modifier of 1D4, so possibly just use said D4 roll for both purposes (damage modifier and specific hit location).
