* '''Special Attack''' -- If there is a Special with a weapon (a roll of 20 for a skill of 0-9, or 19 or 20 for a skill of 10 or greater) and the weapon cannot impale, the weapon does maximum normal damage (100% against SP and 50% against HP) less any armor the target is wearing. If the weapon can impale, 100% of the rolled damage is taken against both Hit Points and Stun Points (less any armor), and the weapon is stuck in the target's body. It takes a check against STx2 (for the attacker) or STx1 (for the target) to remove the weapon. However, for each round the weapon is impaled the target takes normal rolled damage (100% against SP and 50% against HP) with no additional attack rolls necessary and no effect from armor. This extra damage can be avoided by holding very still and not moving. This is unlikely on a battlefield, but a character impaled and then left for dead might be able to manage it.

* '''Critical Attack''' -- If there is a Critical with a weapon (a Special followed by a successful second Skill Check) the damage from the Special Attack ignores armor. It does not ignore magical defense spells (or superscientific force fields) but it still ignores any underlying armor.
