Re: Rule Mixup?
 

jack rolls and deals 6pts of damage to jill who has ST 10.

if jacks attack did double knock back then it would have done 1 yard of knock back since = 6*2 > 10-2 (12 > 8)

thats using the double damage for weak attacks. (well that hurt still)

if jack rolls and deals 12pts of damage to jill who has ST 10 then:

using the double damage rule you get: 12 x 2 = 24 which is 3 times greater than 8 (jill's ST-2) so jill would fly back 3 yards!

using the double distance rule Jill would fly only 2 yards since 12 is only greater than 8 by 1 so she flies 1 yard which is then doubled to 2.

lastly, using double distance ONLY wold result in weak attacks (like the 6 in the beginning) to never cause knock back.

hope this helps.
