RE: [DL] Bleedin'

["Joe Frankovitch" <slvrdrgn@larp.com>]

I was under the impression that, in Revised edition, default rolls were
1dX-4, X being the die of the stat.

Still, I admit its tougher than I indicated, though you can cut the
would penalties out by not doing it on yourself.  Of course, if you're
all alone...

Which means than joe-schmo with d6's in Knowledge gets 1d6-4 (if I'm
remembering this all correctly) to help out his bleedin' buddy.  Granted
he needs an Ace, but it's still likely with a chip, or a couple tries at
it.

Most folks? Not likely amigo. You forget the penalty for a default
medicine: general roll is -8 on top of the wound penalty itself (-3 to
-5) which means you'll be needing a roll of 14 or better just to stop
the bleedin'. Yikes!
