Just to add.

It's a crit hit - no save.

Aw, can't we get a crit save? OK at -10 of your defence?

Just wants the chance to roll dice.

BTW if you fail by more than 10 that is a crit failure.

Which means?

I roll on the crit hit chart and then roll on your crit failure chart...

BTW it does break down a bit with 16+ defences.
