Random Hit Location
Basic Set: Campaigns · p.400
Open source p.400You never have to target a hit loca-
tion – you can always just strike at
“whatever target presents itself.” To do
so, attack with no modifier for hit
location. If you hit, and your foe fails
to defend, roll on the appropriate
hit location table to find out where the
blow fell; see Hit Location Tables
(p. 552). The GM decides what table to
use for non-humanoids.
Use random hit location for a Wild
Swing (p.
388), shooting blind
(p. 389), suppression fire (p. 409),
fragmentation damage (p. 414), and
any other situation where the GM
feels targeting a location is unrealistic.
If a random attack comes from direct-
ly above, treat “feet” as “hands” and
“legs” as “arms.”
