Burn damage, such as that caused by incendiary grenades, in the Star Frontiers RPG is a type of damage that has its own set of rules.
Acid, fire, and extreme heat cause burns, which are very painful. If a character suffers damage from burns that is more than half his/her Stamina[1] score, the character is completely incapacitated and unable to do anything until treated at a Hospital.[2][3]
Wounds caused by Laser Weapons[4] are not considered burns for purposes of this rule.
Notes & References
- Star Frontiers: Alpha Dawn Expanded Rulebook pp. 28.
- ↑ Full STA score, not current.
- ↑ Note that this is total burn damage; a character with STA 50 who has suffered a fall for -10 STA, a laser hit for -10 STA, and -10 STA from an acid sprayer may have less than 50% her base STA, but her burn damage is only 20 % total.
- ↑ Optional rule: Characters who suffer burn damage that exceeds 1/2 their current STA, but does not exceed 1/2 their baseline STA, suffer a -10% penalty to all ability and skill rolls until their their STA damage is healed to a point where the burn damage no longer exceeds 1/2 current STA.
- ↑ Or Maser Weapons, Proton Weapons, or Bolt Weapons
