The Basis for Recovery

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 severity 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 of PD 3, 5, 6, and 2, Derek's HLT = 9 so:

DT = 10 x (3 + 5 + 6 + 2) / 9 = 160 / 9 = 17.8 = 18
