Basically, if you roll a 6, your roll your Weapon Skill again; if you succeed, you add another d6 to your damage. If THAT comes up a 6, you just keep rolling d6's until you don't get a 6 (no need to make another WS check). Ex: WS 34%. You get a 6 for your damage, you roll % again, and get a 22. That's under your WS, you you get to add another d6 damage. Lets say that's another 6...you roll another d6, get a 6, you roll another d6, that's a 3. Your total damage would then be 6 + 6 + 6 + 3 = 21 damage. You likely just put a creature into the realm of "Critical Hits" (re: below 0 in Wounds). THAT is where the fun starts! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />A lot of people who try WHFRP (at least 1st edition...the version I still play) make little mistakes like this, especially if they are coming from D&D, Palladium Fantasy, Tunnels & Trolls, etc.^_^Paul L.
