Damage Sizing

Matt Miller

In Netrunner, 7 points gets you victory, with points coming in packages of 1,2 or 3. Thus, any 'hit' after your second might be your last. Likewise, it might be 7 different successes. But it means that you start sweating every attack, because it might be your last. It's the same dynamic as playing with lv1 characters. In DnD, at lvl 1, max weapon being greater than max HP means a bad roll can end your character. But I think Netrunner strikes a good balance between 1st level DnD and the 'stacks of HP' problem.
