two different systems for damage?
That is the matrix system and the ranged combat system
In the matrix system the attacker stages up the damage and then the defender
stages down the damage.
e.g. the attack is 6S the attacker rolls 3 successes and stages the damage
to 6D then the defender rolls 4 successes and stages the damage to 6M.
In the combat system the attack is staged by the net successes.
e.g. the attack is 6S the attacker rolls 3 successes and the defender rolls
4 successes so the net successes are -1 (from the POV of the attacker) and
so the damage stays at 6S.
I can't really see why they are different as they could with a Rules
revision such as SR3 have been unified quite easily
If anyone can enlighten me I would be greatful
