claycle Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Can't find a RAW for non-lethal blows intended to bring about unconsciousness. So a guess: Aimed shots at the head (or abdomen) that pit the "damage done" versus the CON of the target? Fumbles actually damage the target? Or is there a RAW I can't find?

cmagnificent Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 After scouring the book a little bit, it does look like the mechanic for knocking someone unconscious would be doing an aimed shot for the head and doing enough damage to do so. In fairness, knocking someone unconscious via blunt force trauma is a lot more dangerous than its commonly portrayed, and for me that fits the high consequence combat nature of the game pretty well. If you wanted a truly non-lethal option, you could probably get away with a STRvCON resistance roll and it would feel pretty fair in play.
