Critical table

A critical table lists all the injury (including death) messaging for a specific damage type. The table is divided into thirteen body locations with each body location further sub-divided into either ten critical ranks (0 to 9), or for unarmed combat system damage, twelve ranks (0 to 11).

In addition to the critical rank messaging, the table will often include hitpoint damage, status effects (stuns, knockdowns, limb loss) and injuries (levels 1, 2 and 3) associated with a particular critical rank/body location combination.
