[QUOTE="schnee, post: 7109107, member: 16728"] Nope. Nothing says that. You are making that up. HP damage is an abstraction, and there is nothing in any part of the rules that says a punch gets thrown to the breastplate. What makes 'sense' is that hand strikes are applied to less-armored joints, kicks are applied to the knees at odd angles to hurt them and mess with their balance and mobility, even 'joint locks' that you'd see in an MMA take-down get used when the opportunity arises. For someone who talks a lot about how things 'should make sense' - literally arguing with people for a dozen pages when they provide full justification and rules logic to back up their arguments - you quickly dive into nonsensical stuff at arbitrary, non-sensical times. :heh: Given that one example above (and many more called out along the way), you have a much less solid relationship to 'sense' and 'logic' as you think.
