6. BEING HIT
In the struggle for victory, you will both allocate damage, and receive damage, based on the various abilities to minimize the BaseToHit roll. When your enemy rolls a number (on 2d6) which is greater than the BTH required, he/she scores a 'hit'. The location of that hit, and the damage that is inflicted will be discussed in this section.
6.1 HIT LOCATIONS
When your enemy successfully exceeds her BTH, you are hit in a location based on your relative position to her. If you are facing them forward, you may be hit anywhere. If they is standing on one side of you, then the side they are standing on will more likely be hit. If you are standing behind a level higher elevation or in depth 1 water, you are determined to be in partial cover, and thus cannot normally be hit in the legs. These things should be considered carefully and understood. The following is the hit location charts, along with the roll needed for a hit in a given location, and the probability of being hit there.
Also note that turning the torso of your mech does not change the hit location chart used. The facing/heading of the unit is used to determine the table used.

7. PILOT INJURY
When a mech gets hit in the head, falls over from from damage, runs into a building, or falls out of the sky, this can give the pilot injury. When a pilot receives injury, it can be noted in the status i display.
Graphic 5G
> status i Mech Name: Al Vulcan ID:[KL] Mech Reference: VL-5T Tonnage: 40 MaxSpeed: 96 JumpRange: 6 Pilot Name: Tony Pilot Injury: 3 FALLEN X, Y, Z: 7, 6, -2 Excess Heat: 0 deg C. Heat Production: 0 deg C. Speed: 0 KPH Heading: 300 deg Heat Sinks: 12 Des. Speed: 0 KPH Des. Heading: 300 deg Heat Dissipation: 180 deg C.
Everytime a pilot is injured a consciousness roll takes place, if the pilot fails the roll, the pilot will be unconscious. The following table is used to determine the rolls needed.
Total Damage Consciousness number ------------ -------------------- 1 3+ 2 5+ 3 7+ 4 10+ 5 11+ 6 DEAD
An unconscious pilot cannot do anything until a future conscious roll is made. A pilot get's one attempt every 30 game ticks currently.
Note: A unit which is shutdown/has it's pilot unconcious is a MUCH easier target to hit.
When a character has stats (their gunnery and piloting skills, for Mechwarriors) there is an optional advantages to purchase. Toughness will allow the character to have choose the best 2 of 3d6 for consciousness rolls (This will be done automatically for you).
