You get knocked back a few yards. If you take more than what would have killed you will be knocked backseveral yards. If you take a melee attack from a creature with a strength bonus 3 greater than yours then you go back ayard for every point greater than yours + 3."First, I'm not sure if this applies when I'm wearing armor or not wearing armor.  Next, what's "better" than heavy damage, heavier damage, or lighter damage?  How many yards is a few yards?  Is several more than a few?  Why doesn't this apply to ranged attacks?  What if I'm much bigger than the creature knocking me back?  Do I go back a yard for each opponent strength point over mine +3 yards, or for each opponent strength point over my strength+3?I'm not a rules writing expert.  However, I'd like to recommend that for each rule, you decide:1) The precise intent of the rule.2) How that rule interacts with every other rule.3) What is the most concise explanation of these first two considerations.</blockquote>
