An attack that misses by 1 hits the torso instead. Only impaling (imp), piercing (pi-, pi, pi+, pi++), and tight-beam burning (burn) attacks can target the eye – and only from the front or sides. Injury over HP÷10 blinds the eye. Otherwise, treat as skull, but without the extra DR!
An attack that misses by 1 hits the torso instead. Wounding modifier is x4. Knockdown rolls are at -10. Critical hits use the Critical Head Blow Table (B556). Exception: These special effects do not apply to toxic (tox) damage.
An attack that misses by 1 hits the torso instead. Neck and throat. Increase the wounding multiplier of crushing (cr) and corrosion (cor) attacks to x1½, and that of cutting (cut) damage to x2. At the GM’s option, anyone killed by a cutting (cut) blow to the neck is decapitated!
An attack that misses by 1 hits the torso instead. Jaw, cheeks, nose, ears, etc. If the target has an open-faced helmet, ignore its DR. Knockdown rolls are at -5. Critical hits use the Critical Head Blow Table (B556).

An attack that misses by 1 hits the torso instead. Human males and the males of similar species suffer double shock from crushing (cr) damage, and get -5 to knockdown rolls. Otherwise, treat as a torso hit.
An attack that misses by 1 hits the torso instead. Heart, lungs, kidneys, etc. Increase the wounding modifier for an impaling (imp) or any piercing (pi-, pi, pi+, pi++) attack to x3. Increase the wounding modifier for a tight-beam burning (burn) attack to x2. Other attacks cannot target the vitals.
