Critical hits / special damage

If the attacker hits with a 1 and the defender rolls 6 for Armor, the attacker gets a second Free Attack (no armor roll). If it hits, the target is marked with a Raven Token and every enemy figure within 6" of it takes a morale test at End of Turn. Rune cards can convert a normal wound into this result.

In melee, if a Viking hits with a roll of “1” and the enemy rolls a “6” for their Armor rating, the attacker rolls a second, Free Attack against the same target!

Deep Wounds and Slow Kills give Bleed Tokens, which add a Fatigue each Fatigue phase and can never be removed. Slow Kill to head/vitals disables, to torso trips (both concede), to limbs forfeits an Action Die.

Bleed Tokens represent a gladiator taking a fast-bleeding wound.

Special results: fuel tank hit (lose 6 fuel) or explode, engine damaged (no speed 3-4), rudder jammed (forced direction 2 turns), fabric tears / struts damaged (no restricted manoeuvres), weapon destroyed, pilot or observer killed. Once all boxes and at least one triangle of a section are gone, restricted manoeuvres risk break-up on 5-6, or engine seizure.

Critically damaged aircraft making restricted maneuvers (steep climbs and restricted maneuvers with a critically damaged engine) may break apart (these aircraft are destroyed).

1-2 crew stunned (-2 next activation), 3-4 weapon destroyed, 5 immobilised, 6 destroyed with crew bailing and each taking a hit. Front hits roll 2 dice and take the better, side 1 die, rear 2 dice take the worse. A repeated result in the same turn becomes the next highest effect.

If a vehicle is hit on the front roll 2 dice & choose the better result. On the side roll 1 die. On the rear roll 2 dice & choose the worst result.

Ace: gunnery radar hit (+2 shooting number); King: gunnery hit (+1); Queen/Jack: speed hit (+1 speed number); 4-10: hull damage equal to value; 3: bridge hit (lose one Captain Point permanently); 2: magazine hit, roll 2d6 and on 10+ the ship is sunk, otherwise +1 shooting number.

Magazine Hit! Roll both six-sided dice. On 10+ the ship is sunk. If not sunk then +1 to ship’s shooting number.

1 gun explodes (crew loss, possible fire), 2 mast down (falls port/starboard, ship turns that way, no fire that side), 3 shaft broken (dead in water or half steam), 4 steering hit (jammed; 5-6 on d6 per turn to free), 5 bridge hit (go straight one turn), 6 boiler hit (no steam; 1d6: 5 fire, 6 explodes and sinks in 1d6 turns).

One penetration disables a turret, barbette or casemate; any gun hit is disabled; HE bursts put guns out for five moves. Speed falls 3 knots for bow waterline loss, funnels or uptakes, or a fallen mast; one shot in engines halves speed, a second stops it. A penetrated conning tower or aft protective deck prevents steering for three moves.

If conning tower is hit and penetrated the ship may not steer for three moves.
