The Fantasy Trip

One of the biggest things for me is death at 0 ST, this should be changed to unconscious at 0 ST and dead at -ST. A knocked out player is almost unheard of yet it happens all the time in Fiction and real life for that matter.

So a PC with 9 ST gets hit by a broad sword for 12 (Yes! Box Cars!!) he is unconscious with -3 ST, if the party wins the battle the character could be healed. If they lose the character is most likely killed or maybe ransomed after recovery.

In this case the PC's win, a Physicker can heal 2 points of damage, as they don't have any magic potions right now he heals at the normal rate (1ST/2day? my memory is bad need some of that mIQ) so he is out for 2 days regaining consciousness at 0 ST but still unable to do anything.

This will help with 2 things character survivability and making dramatic rescues more likely to happen. After all how many times did Frodo get knocked out, or any one of many heroes.
