Melee Damage

Melee damage encompasses most of the physical damage that can befall a person. It covers any damage from a hand-held (or melee) weapon, plus collisions, falls, and things falling on top of you.

Melee damage results from any of the following:

• Hand-held weapon that does damage by slashing, piercing or brute concussion. This includes any such weapon that is thrown or fired from a bow.
• Any form of collision with another solid object.
• Any fall from height
• Any accident from or within a mount or vehicle.
• Being struck by falling objects, or within a failing structure.

Melee Damage is the norm.

If in doubt, physical damage is 1 dice x Size (if applicable) and times Pace (if applicable).
