Need to think more about how healing magic works with this. Perhaps any healing spell or potion should have some effect...
Possible Limb subtable (1d8):
| 1 to 3 | weapon/primary arm |
| 4 to 5 | secondary arm |
| 6 to 7 | primary leg |
| 8 | secondary leg |
Feedback from Frank Mentzer:
Not to be a spoilsport, but broken ribs and other bones of similar narrow dimensions are less incapacitating (and heal quicker) than large/heavy broken bones and/or major ball joints.
Suggest you recategorize the breakages from small/minor to large/serious.
Thanks, Frank!
Also thanks to the other denizens of the Dragonsfoot's classic D&D forum for their feedback.
Possibly ribs effects: No bending/lifting. No exersion. Reduced encumberance capacity. Cannot use two handed weapons or carry a shield. No throwing or drawing a bow.
Another alternative: Instead of 2d6, roll weapon damage + 1d6.
