Declare Actions: Each round, you may perform 1 action without penalty.
Each additional action imposes a -3 penalty to all rolls.
(Most of the time, with a round being 3 seconds long, this will be limited to 3 actions) - Resolve Dice Rolls: Attacks, dodges, skill checks, etc.

Roll Hit Location & Apply Damage:
• Subtract target’s SP and Body Type Modifier (BTM) from damage.
• If you take 8+ damage that is fully absorbed, reduce that location's SP by 1.
• If any damage gets through armor/BTM, reduce that location's SP by 2. -
Check Stun or Death Saves:
• If Wound Level ≥ Death Save threshold → Roll Death Save: roll under BODY - Wound Level.
• If only Stun applies → Roll Stun Save: roll under BODY - Stun Level.
• Fail = stunned 1 round (or dead if it was a Death Save).
