Rules are not defined in terms of how to deal with a hit that strikes both an illegal, and a legal target area (Example: Head + shoulder). Some realms choose to ignore these strikes, while others treat them as valid hits to the legal target area.
Also strikes hitting multiple target areas are partially consolidated into one section of the BoW, but 3.6.4 is not included in that section. Cleaning this up as part of the proposed change.
CURRENT RULES
3.8. A hit that strikes both the body AND either an arm or a leg is assumed to have hit the body.
3.9. A single strike can only damage one target area.
3.6.4. Weapons that strike both armored and unarmored target areas are considered to have hit the unarmored target area.
PROPOSED CHANGE
3.8. A single strike can only damage one target area.
3.8.1. A strike to both the body and either an arm or a leg is assumed to have hit the body.
3.8.2. A strike to both an armored and an unarmored target area is considered to have hit the unarmored target area.
3.8.3. A sufficient force strike to both an illegal target area and a legal target area causes no damage.
Changes are as follows
- 3.9 re-numbered to 3.8.
- 3.8 re-numbered to 3.8.1.
- 3.6.4 re-numbered to 3.8.2 and re-worded to be consistent with other rules in this section.
- 3.8.3 added
