All they know is what I say themwhen they take a blow: "This one was strong, it pierced your rib cageand crushed a lung ... you know, it hurts a lot." or "You see a brightlight, Mayaheine isn't so far from you anymore ...".So drinking a healing potion is often a last resort action when I saythem such a thing. And going to a fight when they are already woundedis very courageous, as they do not know really if they will be able toendure more than one blow, especially at low levels. It's harder for my players but I find it's better for tension anddramatic impact of the PC's actions. It is only at the end of the sessions that they know how near or farthey were from unconsciouness or even death.As an exemple, Ezekiel was hit for more than 140 damage points ofdamage from the beginning to this moment of the story, but Gandigootonly suffered 24 damage points. It was the "scores" at this moment of the story, now (Episode 12)Killashalandilis has taken the lead with 303 life points losed andDiane is the most cautious with around 40 damages endured....some PCs are more carefull than others ...See you,</blockquote>
