I, the original poster, stand corrected. The knockdown and stunning rules, as written, model reality as accurately as one can expect from an RPG.

I like this too. It's like a finer tuning to the rules as written.

Thank you one and all for your responses. By itself, GURPS is wonderful. Add these forums to mix and GURPS is ... a pleasure to GM and play in.
