4 | QUALITY CHANGES
INTRODUCTION
For some, combat can be the most fun, exciting and
rewarding aspect of roleplaying games. It is often the
main factor of how we judge a game. Roleplaying itself
is basically the same from game to game. We work
through social situations with a few skill checks; who’s
attending the Barons party, finding clues of the city’s
crime syndicate or agreeing on a price to guard the
caravan to the next town. More importantly, we look
at the mechanics of combat to help decide how we are
going to spend our Saturday night. How detailed the
combat is, how it flows, what options do we have to
make it interesting and unique. Does it bring us to the
edge of our seats?
Also important and a big part of the fun and draw of
a game is the customization of Player Characters. This
definitely holds true in ZWEIHÄNDER. There are
many professions, skills, talents, spells, weapons and
armor to choose from to make every character unique.
There are also optional rules for weapon damage,
multiple attacks and piecemeal armor. This supplement
is going to expand on the rules covering piecemeal
armor and the injuries that affect those areas. The
few paragraphs that detail those rules from the core
rulebook will be repeated here so all of the information
is in one booklet. The injury tables have been expanded
to cover each hit location, head, arms, body and legs.
There are a number of options to use throughout this
booklet and it is suggested to use the last option in all
the areas that have choices. Of course, feel free to use
the options that best fit you and your group.
Combat in ZWEIHÄNDER is quick and deadly
and the expanded rules contained here will not slow
down combat on any level.. There are no additions
rolls needed to use any of the options that follow. At
character creation and anytime after that individual
pieces of armor are changed out there will be some
book keeping that needs to be done.
For simplicity and all-around fairness it is suggested
that any options used for the Player Characters will
also be used for any opponents they are dealing with.
QUALIT Y CHANGES
Depending on the amount of detail and realism you
want for wearing different armor types in your game,
there are two options that can be used dealing with
Qualities. Characteristics of both options are;
 If a Character is wearing any other armor type
besides cloth on any part of their body, they
immediately lose the benefits of the Natural
Quality.
 The Dangerous Quality is referred to if a specific
body part is struck and is not protected by armor.
The two options follow.
I. If someone is wearing a single piece of armor that
has the Heavy Quality, they are considered to be
wearing Heavy armor.Taken from ZWEIHÄNDER
Revised Core Rulebook, page 374.
II. If someone is wearing three or more pieces of
armor with the Heavy Quality, than the Heavy
Quality is in effect. While wearing one or two
pieces of armor with the Heavy Quality, that
individual is unaffected by the Heavy Quality for
purposes of using Coordination to Dodge attacks.
It is still prohibited to use the Incantation skill
while wearing a single piece of armor with the
Heavy Quality. Note, each arm and leg are counted
as one piece, so a humanoid would wear six pieces
of armor to cover their body.
Brida Scarious, a local Watchwomen was
issued leather armor when she signed up
with the town Watch. She made a little coin
recently at a gaming house and decides to buy
a mail haubergeon to further protect herself on
her patrols. Mail haubergeon has the Heavy
Quality but since it is the only piece of Heavy
armor worn Brida is unaffected. She will still be
able to Dodge attacks with a Coordination test.
 ENCUMBRANCE | 5

Dangerous: Clothing or armor of this Quality cannot
adequately protect you from harm. Should you suffer
an Injury during this time without wearing a suit of
armor, you begin to Bleed (as mentioned in Chapter
8: Combat).
Heavy: Armor of this Quality prohibits the use of the
Incantation Skill to cast Magick and Coordination in
order to Dodge attacks.
Natural: Armor of this Quality adds a +10 Base
Chance to Dodge attacks.
ENCUMBRANCE
Encumbrance is what you carry with you and if you
carry too much it can negatively affect you in the form
of Overage. Overage will lower your Initiative and
your Movement, so it is important to track and to
stay within your Encumbrance score. There are three
options to pick from for Encumbrance;
I. Always refer to the encumbrance value of the
heaviest type of armor, as stated in ZWEIHÄNDER
Revised Core Rulebook, page 374.
II. As an alternative, you can use the Inventory &
Encumbrance Sheet at the end of this supplement.
It uses the alternative Encumbrance system in
ZWEIHÄNDER Revised Core Rulebook, page 375.
You are allowed to fill the appropriate slots and not
count them as Encumbrance. Any items over the
allowed slots are considered Overage with normal
Encumbrance values.
III. As a third choice you can use the table below (Table
A: Individual Armor Encumbrance) to calculate
total Encumbrance Values for each individual piece
of armor worn. This chart is a slightly modified
version of the armor encumbrance system used in
Ballers II, a bloodblitz campaign supplement in the
Grim & Perilous Library, used with permission by
writer Mariusz Malinowski a.k.a. ”Baller”. The only
modifications made were to call out ‘right’ and ‘left’
arm and ‘right’ and ‘left’ leg as individual areas.

Bloodblitz Encumbrance: When determining the Encumbrance of piecemeal armor, simply use the chart below and add
up the numbers for the pieces of armor that you wear. Use the tens digit for your final Encumbrance score.

is his Munitions Plate Aventail [Head, with Difficulty ratings taken from ZWEIHÄNDER Revised
Enc. value of 6] Then we add all of the body Core Rulebook, page 374;
areas up 20+6+10.5+0+6=42.5. Then take
the tens digit from this total to get your final  Head: (Arduous -30%) Combat-based Skill Test
Encumbrance Value. In this example, Draxan’s  Arms: (Challenging -10%) Combat-based Skill Test
Encumbrance Value for his armor would be 4.

 Legs: (Hard -20%) Combat-based Skill Test
HIT LOCATIONS
Whether it takes place in theatre of the mind or on a
battle grid, we like to envision what the combat looks REVISED DAMAGE
like as we are fighting. With this system it is very easy
to see where you hit, and call that out to the group
THRESHOLD CHART
to further the narrative. There are two options for Following is the revised Damage Threshold Chart that
determining hit location. will be used to track the different body areas. It contains
the To Hit location die rolls and the corresponding

was hit. For example, if you roll a 36% Combat Chart).
Skill Test to hit, flipping it will give you a 63. You
hit your opponent in the body. Fans of that other
game will be very familiar with this method.
II. Use the ‘units’ or ‘ones’ die to determine the location
of the hit, as mentioned in the ZWEIHÄNDER
Revised Core Rulebook, page 374. For example, if you
roll a 29% Combat roll to hit, the ‘units’ die is 9. You
hit your opponent on the right leg. Arms are hit on
a 2-4. We will use two numbers for the dominant
hand and one number for the off hand. Make sure
to make a note of which is your dominant hand
in the Background section of your character sheet.
All opponents will be considered right-handed unless
specifically called out. In the case of creatures that do
not fit an upright bipedal form, use common sense.

A simple example table (Table B: Example Creature

Hit Location ) can be found opposite, on page 7.

There are three options for tracking armor condition.

PARTS I. Armor damage is not normally tracked in the

standard rules. There are specific Traits, Talents or
Breastplate Body 72 gc other occasions where the GM may decide that

Greaves Legs 36 gc It will then gain the Ruined! Quality. See below
for the description of the Ruined! Quality.
Bascinet Head 17 gc
II. In this option, receiving a Grievous Injury will
confer the Ruined! Quality to the piece of armor of
the affected area. See below for the description of
01-10 (1) the Ruined! Quality. Make a note of this on your
character sheet.
III. The third option has three levels of damage a piece
of armor can take. They are Dangerous, Ruined!
and Destroyed!. When an Injury is suffered the
first time, the Dangerous Quality is conferred to
that piece of armor. If that armor location is Injured
again while still having the Dangerous Quality,
11-30 (2,3) 31-40 (4)
it is now considered Ruined! If the armor is not
repaired and receives a third Injury, it is Destroyed!
41-80 (5,8) and cannot be repaired. Any of the current damage
Qualities should be noted on your character sheet.

Dangerous: The Dangerous Quality is conferred by

receiving a Injury or other occasions where the GM
may decide that the integrity of your armor is in a state
of disrepair. Armor that has acquired this quality will
suffer a -1 (to a minimum of 1)to its Damage Threshold
and cannot adequately protect you from harm. Should
you suffer an Injury during this time with your
armor damaged, you begin to Bleed (as mentioned in
Chapter 8: Combat of ZWEIHÄNDER Revised Core
Rulebook). Fixing Dangerous Quality armor requires
91-00 (0) an appropriate tradesman who can fix it, who must be
paid three days wages. Alternatively, if you can make a
successful Tradecraft Test after three days of repair, you
81-90 (9) may fix it yourself.
Ruined!: The Ruined! Quality is conferred by specific
Traits, Talents or other occasions where the GM may
decide that the integrity of your armor is in a state
of disrepair. Armor of this Quality does not add to
10 | DRAWBACKS
Damage Threshold. Fixing Ruined! Quality armor
requires an appropriate tradesman who can fix it, who
must be paid six day’s wage. Alternatively, if you can
make a successful Tradecraft Test after six days of repair,
you may fix it yourself. If you attempt to trade or sell
Ruined! items, they have no value whatsoever unless it
is made of metal. Ruined! Metal armor is worth 1/10
of its original value since it can be remelted or reforged.
Destroyed!: Armor that has been damaged the third
time without being repaired is Destroyed!. It crumbles
or falls off of your body to the ground. It cannot be
repaired and has no value whatsoever unless it is made
of metal. Destroyed! metal armor is worth 1/10 of its
original value since it can be remelted or reforged.
DRAWBACKS
There are additional drawbacks under a number of
the Grievous Injury descriptions. If at any time a
character gains a Drawback, the GM and player
should take some time at the end of the session to
discuss it. Drawbacks will often affect a character
mentally and physically and this should show in the
characters actions. ZWEIHÄNDER is about how
the world affects the characters and Drawbacks from
Grievous Injuries can be a major game changer. Try to
see Drawbacks as a character trait, something to add
flavor to your characters personality. They should not
be seen as a negative or something to sulk about but a
new challenge to overcome.
A list of all Drawbacks, old and new that may arise
from being injured in combat are listed below for easy
reference. New Drawbacks are listed with a red asterisk
(*).
Bad Ticker (Body)
You suffer from a debilitating sickness or an injury that
never healed fully, which makes your blood stir slowly. It is
slowly eating away at your precious humanity bit-by-bit,
and inevitably will lead to your doom.
Effect: Whenever you fail to Resist against Stress, Fear
or Terror, you gain 3 additional Corruption.
Black Cataract (Head)
Your eye has grown over with glaucoma or suffered major
trauma in a fight or accident. As a result, you have difficulty
making out distances and depth. It’s not to say that you
cannot see, but you face extreme hardship, unable to discern
between friend or foe at times.
Effect: Whenever you miss with Attack Actions using
a ranged weapon, you must re-roll the result with the
same Difficulty Rating. If it is a success, you strike a
random ally who is Engaged with your target.
Bleeder (Arms)
Your blood doesn’t easily clot. This means you bruise like a
peach when hurt, and spurt like a stuck pig whenever you
are injured.
Effect: Whenever you are treated with the Heal Skill, a
caregiver suffers an additional -20 Base Chance, unless
they expend an additional bandage during treatment.
Bum Leg * (Legs)
After bones being broken, tendons cut and muscles crushed,
your body cannot maneuver wearing heavy cumbersome
armor anymore.
Effect: If wearing armor with the Heavy Quality,
Encumbrance points are doubled for the purpose of
determining overage.
Cat Got Your Tongue * (Head)
Battle has taken jaw, teeth or tongue. You barely have a
voice to speak with.
Effect: You must flip to fail all Skill Tests which rely
on your voice.
Crop Ear (Head)
An unfortunate accident or a result of birth or disease has
left you partially deaf. You are barely able to hear and must
rely on your other senses to process the world around you.
Speech is difficult and you’re often misunderstood or even
ridiculed as you converse with others.
Effect: You must flip the results to fail all Skill Tests
that rely on hearing.
Dunderhead (Head)
You are socially awkward and don’t get along well with
others. You often stammer, lose focus and find it hard to
compel others to listen to you. As such, you are perceived as
being socially inept at times, or haughty without reason.
You may even have a brain trauma! You decide.

Effect: Whenever you suffer mental Peril, move
one additional step down the Peril Condition Track
negatively while suffering 1 Corruption.
Frequent Seizure * (Body, Head)
Maybe the result from a head trauma or a devastating back
injury it seems at the most inopportune time your body locks
up and does not respond.
Effect: You fall into fits of shaking and frothing under
tense situations. When you suffer from Stress, Fear or
Terror, you must roll a chaos die, 1d6 for Stress, 2d6
chaos dice for Fear and 3d6 chaos dice for Terror. If any
are a face “6” you fall to the ground Helpless for 1d10
+1 minutes.
Hobbled Gait * (Legs)
Your lower body has suffered a devastating injury. You find
yourself staying on your horse or wagon, the bar stool even.
You quite often need something to support yourself to walk.
Combat is difficult but you are not ready to lie down and
die just yet.
Effect: You must spend an additional AP to perform
any Movement Action.
Light Load * (Arms, Body, Legs)
An after effect from a disease or a major wound to your
spine taken in battle, your body can no longer carry extra
weight that it used to.
Effect: When determining your encumbrance limit it
is [BB] + 0 instead of [BB] + 3.
Limited Mobility * (Arms)
Through age, hard work in the fields or damage inflicted
thru combat your arm does not have its youthful range of
motion anymore.
Effect: You suffer a -20 base chance to all Skill Tests
with this arm. If you decide to triple the amount of
time required to try a task, you will only suffer a -10
base chance.
Limp Wrist * (Arms)
With broken bones and severed tendons, your wrist is the
weakest link. Heavy exertion and a delicate touch is no
longer your forte.
Effect: You must flip to fail all Agility Skill Tests that
use this hand.
DRAWBACKS | 11
Manikin Joint * (Arms, Legs)
Either your elbow is wrecked or your knee blown out, one
of your joints no longer listens to your will. From a crude
board and bandage to an elaborate contraption of hinges,
rods and straps, your joint is held from straight to bent as
you want.
Effect: This joint must be locked in place by splint or
device in order to use it. While locked in place all Skill
Tests with this arm/leg become worse by one step on
the Difficulty Rating Chart.
Ne’er Do Well (Head)
You are feckless, irresponsible and prone to idleness. It
doesn’t mean that you are completely useless, however, you
are unreliable when the chips are down.
Effect: You cannot Assist others’ Skill Tests.
Open Hand * (Arms)
Through broken finger and ripped tendons your hand
sometimes let loose on its own.
Effect: Whenever you suffer from Stress, Fear or Terror
you immediately drop what is in your hand. In addition
when you suffer from Bleeding or an Injury you must
pass a Toughness test or drop what is in your hand.
Pain Killer (Body, Legs)
You escape the stresses of your daily life , the memories of
past battles– and the horrors of what’s out there – by self-
medicating.
Effect: Work with your GM to select a single Addiction
your Character begins play with.
Partial Paralysis * (Body)
Through deadly combat your spine has been brutalized.
Your mind may be as quick as ever but your body resists
your commands.
Effect: You permanently suffer from the Stunned
Condition and thus begin your turn always with one
less AP. Note that you cannot be further stunned.
Restless Sleep * (Body)
By sight, this old battle wound has healed. Unfortunately it
still stabs you with shocking pain in the dark hours of night.
Effect: You cannot rest to recover from Peril in rural
environments, unless you take a dose of tobacco before
resting.
12 | DRAWBACKS
Rigid Spine * (Body)
Your back has taken quite the abuse, you feel the weight of
the world pressing down on you.
Effect: When determining your Initiative and
Movement, use [PB] + 1 for Initiative and [AB] + 1
for Movement.
Sanguine Temperament (Head)
You are rather outgoing, but also jittery and have a hard
time sitting still. You may suffer from ‘jimmy leg’, and are
unable to keep a steady hand in the thick of battle, unless
concentrating
Effect: You cannot Load or Take Aim without spending
an additional Action Point. In addition, whenever you
use the Special Action of Wait, you lose 1 Action Point.
Sour Stomach (Body)
You have pains in your stomach that make it difficult to keep
down ‘rich’ food. This also means other kinds of substances
can have a poor effect on your health, and keep you confined
to the water closet.
Effect: After taking a dose of Laudanum, a
Delirient or consuming a substance the GM
sees as being hard on your stomach, you
cannot recover to Unhindered on the Peril
Condition Track (only to Imperiled) for the
next 24-hours.
Split Face (Head)
Whether you took the haft of an axe to the face,
your nose was broken in a fight or was born with
a deformity, you have a poor sense of smell.
Effect: You must flip the results to fail all Skill
Tests which rely on smell and taste.
Two-Handed Trouble * (Arms)
Muscles cut and bones crushed, using both hands in unison
is a physical and mental challenge.
Effect: When using two-handed melee or ranged
weapons the difficulty rating becomes worse by one
step on the Difficulty Rating Chart..
Uncontrolled Retching * (Body)
Your abdomen has been pierced, sliced or pummeled, either
way it is now difficult to keep food down. Water and bread
are the least offensive.
Effect: You slowly become emaciated, deathly thin and
withered. Immediately move your build type down one
step. For instance, if you are corpulent, you are now
husky. Once you reach frail (or are already frail), reduce
your Brawn by 9%.
Veteran’s Arm * (Arms)
Through some horrific accident or a mortal injury in
battle, your arm has been severed or torn off at the elbow.
Shouldering a backpack is about all it is useful for now.
Effect: You cannot use two-handed weapons or attempt
any Skill Tests that must use two hands or arms. You
may still Climb, Swim, Ride a horse, etc. Furthermore
you cannot equip a shield to this arm.
Veteran’s Boot (Legs)
Perhaps lost during an unfortunate carriage accident,
during an intense battle, or in the jaws of a rabid animal,
you are missing a foot. In its place is a wooden boot, which
you must strap onto your leg to stand up straight. It makes
a characteristic ‘CLUD’ sound as you walk, which has
earned you a number of embarrassing nicknames.
Effect: You cannot Charge, Maneuver or Run with
Movement Actions without spending an additional
Action Point.
Veteran’s Eye (Head)
You have lost an eye. It may have been from a
childhood prank gone wrong, an abnormality
from birth or the ‘devil’ made you gouge it out.
Regardless, you may have a glass bead where
it once was, wear an eye patch over the empty
socket or simply let its hollowed-out recess go
uncovered.
Effect: Reduce the Distance for all ranged
weapons you use by -3 (to a minimum of 1).
Veteran’s Hand (Arms)
Whether it was lopped off at the hands of a vicious
mercenary or somehow torn asunder in the complex cogs
of a war machine, you lost use of your hand long ago. In
its place is an iron prosthesis, clumsy to attach and difficult
to use. A webbing of leather straps adorns your arm, from
wrist to elbow.
Effect: You cannot hold weapons which are two-
handed and must flip the results to fail any Skill Test
requiring use of both hands.

Veteran’s Leg (Legs)
With a characteristic shuffling, you draw your lame
leg behind you. Attached at the knee cap with a Barber
Surgeon’s contraption, the cheap prosthesis grants you the
ability to walk (albeit at a slow, deliberate pace).
Effect: You must reduce your Movement by 3 and
cannot Run.
Weak Lungs (Body)
You have suffered a terrible injury at some point, making it
difficult to breath. You may have fallen on a fencepost as a
youth and grown up with the use of only one lung. Perhaps
you were stabbed by a vicious rival and now exhibit an
audible wheezing.
Effect: Whenever you suffer physical Peril, move
one additional step down the Peril Condition Track
negatively while suffering 1 Corruption.
DETERMINING
INJURY
When a defender’s Damage Condition Track drops
to Moderately Wounded, Seriously Wounded or
Grievously Wounded, they are at risk of suffering an
Injury. In some cases, particular Talents or other Traits
may make said Injuries more (or less) severe. Note that
you are never at risk of suffering Injuries if you move
up the Damage Condition Track; only when you move
down the Damage Condition Track.
When a Character’s Damage Condition track drops to
Lightly Wounded, there is no risk of Injury. Once the
Condition Track drops to Moderately Wounded, they
must immediately roll a 1D6 Chaos Die. If the result
is face ‘6’, they suffer a Moderate Injury. When the
Damage Condition Track drops to Seriously Wounded,
they must immediately roll 2D6 Chaos Dice. If the
results show one or more face ‘6’, they suffer a Serious
Injury. When the Damage Condition Track drops
to Grievously Wounded, they must immediately roll
3D6 Chaos Dice. If the results show one or more face
‘6’, they suffer a Grievous Injury, and once they reach
Slain!, they’re dead.
DETERMINING INJURY | 13
WHEN INJURY
OCCURS
Every Injury has a specific penalty you’ll incur and
then suffer until you’re Recuperated. Some Injuries
can inflict permanent harm. The GM will randomly
determine which Injury the defender suffers from
(referenced by the new tables contained in this
expansion). The kind of Injury is solely dependent on
where the defender is on the Damage Condition Track.
In addition, Characters also gain 3 Corruption for
Moderate Injuries, 6 Corruption for Serious Injuries
and 9 Corruption for Grievous Injuries. Treatments of
Injuries are covered in Chapter 9: Hazards & Healing
of ZWEIHÄNDER Revised Core Rulebook.
TREAT INJURIES
Both Moderate and Serious Injuries must be treated
successfully to begin Recuperation. You may only be
treated in this manner once every 24 hours, no matter
whether it is successful or not. If you are suffering from
multiple Injuries, each must be treated individually.
The more Injuries you’re currently suffering from the
worse the Difficulty Rating of the Heal Test gets:
 One Injury: (Routine +10%) Heal Test
 Two Injuries: (Standard +/-0%) Heal Test
 Three Injuries: (Challenging -10%) Heal Test
If you are treated with a successful Heal Test, you
begin Recuperation. A Critical Success has the same
results as above while reducing the Recuperation time
by 3 days. Both Failure and Critical Failure means you
cannot begin Recuperating until undergoing successful
treatment, while Critical Failure also indicates that
your wounds now suffer from Infection.
PERFORM SURGERY
Grievous Injuries require surgery before Recuperation
begins. Successful surgery also allows you to avoid any
permanent effects it may confer. However, you must
undergo this surgery within a number of hours equal
to your [BB] of suffering a Grievous Injury or else its
14 | RECUPERATION TIME

effects are permanent. As before, if you are suffering

from multiple Injuries, each must be treated individually. INJURY TABLE
The more Injuries you’re currently suffering from, the
worse the Difficulty Rating of the Heal Test gets:
FEATURES
 Brawling weapons will use the Crushing weapons
 One Injury: (Routine +10%) Heal Test tables.

 Two Injuries: (Standard +/-0%) Heal Test 
 Three Injuries: (Challenging -10%) Heal Test

If you are treated with a successful Heal Test, you
may begin Recuperation and don’t suffer from the
permanent effects of a Grievous Injury. A Critical
Success has the same results as above while reducing 
the time to Recuperate by 3 days. Both Failure and
Critical Failure means you cannot begin Recuperating
until undergoing successful treatment, while Critical 
Failure also indicates that your wounds now suffer from
Infection. Until fully recuperated, your movement will
be modified by the Movement Adjust Table located at
the end of this supplement.
Use the Movement Adjustment Table for all Leg
Injuries.
If you need to determine right or left for feature on
the Head or Body roll a 1d6. 1-3 will be the right
side and 4-6 will be the left side.
If you use option 3 for armor condition tracking
refer to page 9 for specific details of armor taking
damage.
Arrows and bolts are considered broken when they
inflict an Injury unless they are made of a special
material.

RECUPERATION
TIME
While undergoing Recuperation, you still suffer
from any penalties your Injury conferred on you.
Recuperation requires a certain number of days before
the effects are lifted and the Injury disappears. Total
recovery is based on the severity of the Injury:

 Moderate Injury: 1D10+1 days to Recuperate

 Serious Injury: 2D10+2 days to Recuperate
 Grievous Injury: 3D10+3 days to Recuperate
Note that if you elect to remain bedridden while
Recuperating, you reduce the time to Recuperate by
one additional day you remain in bed (to a minimum
of 1 day to Recuperate). This means that if you require
6 days to Recuperate and you spend the first 3 days in
bed, you are fully Recuperated.

All good tales must eventually come to an end.
Whenever a foe descends beyond the grievous threshold
they are slain. Currently there are two options to use to
describe their death.

Rulebook, page 369-370. Use the
appropriate chart by weapon type. The

that matches the location that was hit
II. Let the player describe the grim
demise of their opponent.
