Narrative Compensation
Have you been injured in a trip or fall?
You could be eligible for compensation if you lost more than 1d6 HP per 10' fallen.
"Take note of what I say - the players use narrative in order to compensate for the rules. Do you play Warhammer 6? You could use narrative to compensate for the rules. Do you play Warhammer 8? You can use narrative."
This, one of the Golden Rules of all wargames and roleplaying games.
