	Wound Penalties from all sources are cumulative, for example if a character has a Serious Wound and three Flesh Wounds they will have a total Wound Penalty of -3, -2 from the Serious Wound and -1 from the Flesh Wounds. Once Wound Penalties from all sources are equal to a character's resolve they are incapacitated and no longer capable of performing meaningful actions either unconscious, screaming incoherently or otherwise incapable.		Wound Penalties from all sources are cumulative, for example if a character has a Serious Wound and three Flesh Wounds they will have a total Wound Penalty of -3, -2 from the Serious Wound and -1 from the Flesh Wounds. Once Wound Penalties from all sources are equal to a character's resolve they are incapacitated and no longer capable of performing meaningful actions either unconscious, screaming incoherently or otherwise incapable.

			Some individuals, through arduous physical and mental exercises, have taught themselves to fight through the pain of wounds in order to keep going when lesser men would falter. A character who is suffering wound penalties may make a Resolve+Focus roll, and the VPs on that roll offset an equal number of wound penalties. This roll can only be made once per combat or set of wounds. A character who makes this roll is treated as having fewer wound penalties, both for the purpose of penalties and for the purpose of determining when the character is incapacitated"

	If a character takes less damage than their Strength, they take a Flesh Wound - small cuts, bruises, and the like that do not greatly impede her ability to fight further. Many flesh wounds can ultimately hinder a fighter, however - combatants suffer a -1 to goal rolls for every ~~two~~ Flesh Wounds they have suffered as aching joints, blood in their eyes and general fatigue slow them down.		If a character takes less damage than their Strength, they take a Flesh Wound - small cuts, bruises, and the like that do not greatly impede her ability to fight further. Many flesh wounds can ultimately hinder a fighter, however - combatants suffer a -1 to goal rolls for every three Flesh Wounds they have suffered as aching joints, blood in their eyes and general fatigue slow them down.

	Thus, a duelist with Strength 5 who takes 4 points of damage receives a Flesh Wound: if it was his first, he suffers no ill effect, but if he has taken a previous flesh ~~wound~~ he would be at a -1 to goals.
