[QUOTE="0bsolete, post: 3869006, member: 56795"] I've implemented my own CdG rules back in AD&D after a player had a thug go behind him with a dagger at his throat to "convince" him to accompany him back to the BBEG's hideout to have a chat and wait until the BBEG arrived in a week (of course then the party would escape and the adventure would start) but the player just laughed and said "I pull out of his grasp, I can handle a D4 of damage." I put the player at -1 hp and bleeding. But this is my rule in regards to CdG. If your in combat, you get an autocrit just because its a bit harder to concentrate. If its out of combat or there are no distractions, you slit that nice little artery that runs oxygen to the brain and they gurgle a bit in protest before dying or you smash their skull in or whatever. There are many squishy places in which you can insert some steel, blunt or sharp, and cause a death that is nearly immediate or at least close enough. Sure a rogue might be able to get a dagger to meet your kidney or get his mace to your stomach but pretty much anybody can slit a throat or smash in a skull. [/QUOTE]
