Ultimately I think Rasna is just looking to replicate that choice at a lower tier in terms of sub location, (and sub, sub location)



*weather lucky is hitting an un-armoured area or an area that comes with extra effects.
If all you are worried about is punching their shin and your GM isn't an idiot, you are definitely better off rolling at -0.
