How exactly would people here model this kind of attack? I've done boxing a while and a good hit to the liver (and the spleen if hit with any real force) will put someone down. In the case of a strong hit, it will rupture and split the organ causing internal damage. This isn't necessarily fatal, but is definitely enough to end a fight.

How exactly could this thing be modeled?

I'd say "Targeted Attack/Vitals - Boxing punch" but it says targeted attacks
can only work with impaling/piercing attacks.

Now, I assume that it can just be assumed that 'damage' reflects this type of injury (eg 6pts of crushing damage to the torso == major wound and can potentially knock peoeple down/out (assuming they have average st/hp)

But what if you actually want to do a punch that actually splits someone's liver or spleen?
