 Hits to specific areas are listed here along with their modifier, DV limit, and any additional effects they may cause. When aiming for a specific location, the modifier listed here replaces the standard &minus;4 Called Shot modifier. The DV limit is the maximum amount of Damage that can be applied with a successful attack on this location. The effects of hits to different areas add any new effects but do not double up on any effects listed for both locations. The durations can be extended with multiple hits to the same location. What all this means is that if you Stunned someone with a shot to the neck, hitting them in the sternum is not going to cause another Stunned effect. It will, though, cause them to be Slowed.

 With a Feint, a character can draw his opponent to make a bad move in their attack. The attack does no damage, but if it is successful, it fools the opponent and forces them to prepare to defend against the false attack. This means that in the next Action Phase, when the character truly attacks, the opponent takes a penalty to his Defense Test equal to the net hits of the Feint. An opponent cannot be penalized by more than one Feint action by the character before the character attacks; if the character attempts multiple Feints, only the net hits from the most recent Feint Action apply.

-Does no damage, but opponent is knocked prone.
+An attacking character may attempt to knock his opponent to the ground by bowling him over, sweeping his feet out from under him, pulling him off balance, or any similar maneuver. The attacker must declare his intention to perform a knockdown attack during the Declare Actions part of the Action Phase. The attacker makes a melee attack as normal. If he scores more hits than the defender, compare the attacker’s Strength + net hits to the defender’s Physical limit. If the attacker’s total exceeds the defender’s Physical limit, the attacker knocks the defender to the ground. This knockdown attack causes no damage to the target (except maybe to their pride).

+This shot does normal damage and decreases the target’s Initiative Score. Sometimes you just need to slow down an opponent and keep them out of the fight. These shots represent the intentional shot past the ear or skipping

-This shot allows you to evenly divide the damage you’re inflicting between a target’s Stun and Physical Condition Monitors.
+This shot allows you to evenly divide the damage you’re inflicting between a target’s Stun and Physical Condition Monitors. Sometimes an attacker really just wants to put the hurt on an opponent instead of outright killing them. If this is the case the attacker can choose to call a shot to split damage between the damage tracks. Shots like this represent things like intentionally shooting the trauma plate on an armor jacket or shooting for the thicker padding on armor clothing.

+Net hits on this Called Shot add to the shooter’s dice pool on Intimidation Tests against the target. Sometimes you just need a good trick shot to make someone rethink their current life path. Shooting a nic-stick out of someone mouth, tacking an opponent’s sleeve to a wall with a knife, or slicing that playing card in half in midair are all good examples that might help to get the point across that you are not one with whom to trifle.
