During combat, the player must keep a running total of the Physical Damage (PD) points taken.

This total determines the Damage Total (DT), which measures the se- verity of injuries.

The greater the DT, the more severe the injury, and the greater the chance of death.

The DT is:

DT = (Ten times the Total PD) / (HLT characteristic) Example:

Derek received four wounds ofPD 3, 5, 6, and 2.

Derek's HLT = 9 so:

DT= lOx (3+5+6+2)/9= 160/9= 17.8= 18
