You can use a skill based on any stat if it makes sense. I often allow Thievery checks based on Intelligence for 'casing a joint' or similar noggin work. I also allow Athletics checks with Intelligence for the 'can I climb that?'However, due to the hard coding of skill to stat on the character sheet it is harder for players to remember to do that.The injury house rule referred to is simply using the disease track to show long term injuries. The version I have written down somewhere is that if you go below 0 hit points or get hit for over your bloodied value in one hit you get 'wounded' using a disease track equal to the opponents level.  Each wound reduces the max healing surges you can have. You have to rest/avoid strenuous activity in order to make an endurance check at the start of the next day.  If you suffer a critical hit, you can elect to take a wound in order to change the wound into a normal hit.</blockquote>
