Tri-Stat dX Easy Called Shots rules revision
By Zegon Destructacon

This is a revision for the standard Called Shot rules available in the Tri-Stat
dX book.  Under this system, it is assumed that Accurate cannot be bought for
any more than X/2 levels, where X is the dice size.  Some more epic characters
may have it at up to X levels.  These different Called Shots rules are to
accomidate those who desire a much more cinematic and freeform form of combat,
where someone with little or no levels in accuracy can still manage to pull off
called shots with some form of reliability, and those with high levels in it
can do it at very little or no penalty.

To make a called shot, you declare a called shot and a target part of the
opponent's anatomy.  If it hits, the effect stated takes place.  Unlike the
called shots rules presented earlier, you cannot raise an area for a more
powerful effect.

Characters should list their most common attempted called shots on their sheet,
and label their effects/penalties as well, to make reference easier for both
the GM and themselves.

If a character misses their attempted shot (which must be declared on
attacking), they miss.  Period.  If they overachieve their called shot, they do
not get a greater effect unless they scored a critical hit, in which case they
still don't get any other bonus other than the opponent being denied a defense
roll, and they automatically hit for double to 4 times damage (remember
that the doubling of a doubling is a tripling).

These rules assume you are aiming at a humanoid of relative size compared to
you.  Until the new awkward size and smaller size rules are drawn up, this
means smaller opponents impose a +1 penalty to-hit for every size smaller they
are compared to the attacker.  With larger opponents, they give a -1 bonus
to-hit for every size category they are larger than the attacker.

An attack must penetrate any armor and force fields the defender has to take
effect.  If an attack's damage is doubled, tripled, or whatnot, this value is
increased before armor, force fields, and other defenses come into play.

Under normal circumstances, a penalty to utilizing legs and ankles imposes
their penalties on defense rolls, and penalties to hand and shoulders are
imposed on attack rolls.  Use common sense, however.  Penalties on hand rolls
won't affect telekinetic attacks, nor will penalties on leg movement effect
a character who uses teleportation to dodge attacks.

Penalties (including blindness and falling unconscious) last for the number of
rounds you failed the roll by.

Again, these rules should NOT be used in conjunction with the Called Shots
rules presented on the dX site or in the book.

The minimum penalty of any called shot is +1.
