Hey all,
New to the site, usual stuff. I've just gotten Zombie Apocalypse, really looking forward to running it for my group, it's something different from D&D and Deathwatch, and I just have a quick question in relation to the Stress Tracks.
Let's just use an example of a PC being catch looting by a soldier, the soldier opens fire, gets two successes, the negatives are all cancelled out, etc, and with the +5 damage, that is a total of 7 damage. If the PC has taken no stress at all up to this point, there will be the -1 for all the damage on that first track, so it is down to 6 damage, that track is filled up, so there is 3 damage left. As this is all from one attack, will the damage now go into the second track, with that additional -2, meaning they only take 1 point of stress to that second box, or does he get the 3 damage because the -1 has already been applied?
I quickly scanned through that section of the book again, but it seemed a bit unclear on that. If anyone could get back to me on this, it would be great.
Thanks.
