Only someone who has the diehard feat will be able to fight some more rounds before dying. If noone helps you after the combat you die.A lance reducing you to 1hp is a blow, that your armor took and maybe broke some of your ribs, but most probably only hurt very much and inflicted some bruises.If you wore no armor, the lance scratched you seriously, but no deadly wound.It really could never be a wound that could kill you, as you are still fighting at full capacity.I would not mind a system, where you could actually receive a wound and have some penalties. But not by just beeing reduced below some percentage.There could be some massive damage rule which may inflict a wound if you fail some check. And I could imagine a Lance from a charging knight maybe even critting having no problem doing damage above that treshold. Or a lance having an ability that does not do extra damage but forces a safe against beeing impaled when you attack someone with a mounted charge attack.</blockquote>
