	;Defensive Stance		;Defensive Stance
	A character fighting in defensive stance is parrying, dodging, weaving, and circling. Any attacks made while in defensive stance are more to stall an attack than to do damage. Fighting in defensive stance is a delaying tactic or a strategy for gaining the Edge. A character using defensive stance receives a +2 to their goal, and the VPs of the character's roll always subtract from an opponent's roll in the same fashion as Balanced Stance.

	In addition to the damage types listed above, all damage is either categorized as "Stun Damage", or "Lethal Damage". Stun damage is bruising, concussions, shock, and occasionally electrical or nervous system damage done by high tech weapons. Stun damage heals quickly and is tracked separately from Lethal Damage. Lethal damage encompasses any damage which runs the risk of killing a character. Guns cause lethal piercing damage. A stunner would cause Stun Energy damage.

			;Shield Bleedthrough
			Blasters, flux weapons and flame guns generate a great deal of heat and while blows from them can be blocked by an energy shield they will 'bleed through' to harm the wearer. These weapons still inflict half damage if they fail to penetrate a personal shield.

	~~There are two kinds of wounds a character can receive: Flesh~~ Wounds and ~~Serious Wounds.~~		See [[Wounds and Healing]]

	A character receives a flesh wound from any attack that deals damage less than their Strength Attribute. For every three flesh wounds a character receives they take a -1 penalty from the pain of the wounds.

	A character receives a serious wound from any attack that deals damage equal to or greater than their Strength attribute. A character receives two Serious wounds from an attack that deals damage equal to or greater than their Strength Attribute +4, and an additional Serious Wound for every 4 points of damage beyond that. Each serious wound a character has applies a -2 to all of their rolls. This penalty is caused by blood loss, concussion, broken bones, or pain from whatever the source of the injury.

	~~Once a character has penalties from their injuries equal to their Resolve Attribute they fall unconscious. If a character receives penalties from wounds equal to their Resolve+3 they die.~~

	Unlike basic and piercing weapons which rely on the transfer of kinetic energy into a target, weapons that do Energy damage cause harm by burning through armor and flesh. The super-heated ball of plasma propelled from a blaster pistol or the ignited Ka oil spit out of a Temple Avesti priest's flamegun are both examples of Energy damage.

	~~Subtract~~ applicable ~~armor~~ soak from damage.		Every armor has three soak ratings. The first is the soak against basic damage, the second a soak against piercing damage, and the third a soak against energy damage.

			When a character takes damage first determine what kind of damage: basic, piercing, or energy. Then subtract the applicable soak rating from the weapon damage. The remaining damage is applied to the character.
