Did people keep taking hit point damage as they bleed out? Did a crit to the foot slow down movement? Did a crit to the face give negative Cha? How did you handle inflection? After taking 3/4th of their hit points in physical wounds did your Characters have penalties to hit? Did they leave easily followed blood trails? How many feet and hands did you lose?I keep reading about people who insist hit points as physical wounds is so much better and frankly I am not longer interested in disputing that. That is a matter of taste and as far as I'm concerned to each his own!What I do want to talk about is that if indeed hit points equaled meat. What were the effects of that? You take 23 points of hit point damage out of 28 in one hit...what body part did you just lose? Are you split open from neck to groin? What effect does THAT have on a fella?I think I might could buy hit points as meat if we talk about some of the subsystems you guys used to make that actually mean something.</blockquote>
