Beginner Box Criticals?

By Lorne, in Rules Questions

Going to be running a one-shot, and I'm using the BBox pregens to make it easy on myself. However, I notice there's no Deadliness entry for their weapons. Do the BBox rules handle critical strikes differently, and if so, how?

Thanks.

Yes - Much like the Star Wars beginner box. Each critical strike you take moves you one 'up' the track.

1st Critical - Have some strife

2nd Critical - +TN on all checks

3rd Critical - +++TN on all checks

4th critical - permenantly incapacitated regardless of your fatigue level until the critical is healed (you can't actually be 'killed' in the beginner game)

there's a medicine check to remove the critical strike.
