Hello All:
Got a question here. In the Referee's Manual (MT) they talk about the
animal hits value and when the first number in the table is reached in battle
damage, the animal is down and when the second number is reached the animal
is DEAD. Cool, this is the usual battle system. But here, look at my Animal
Weight Effects Table...

17 30000 5D 3D+0 x2D+0
18 36000 5D 3D+3 x2D+0
19 40000 5D 3D+6 x2D+2
20 44000 6D 3D+6 x3D+0
Now, the Hits value I understand, I guess, as being the inoperative damage
value. The Destroyed damage value is not on there. And this entry Wound is
not mentioned in the rules commentary. Is Wound the Inoperative Damage,
and Hits the Destroyed? (Table Screwed up?) I Dunno.
This perplexes me and makes my Animal Encounter Table Generator invalid,
so before it makes the list (Hopefully) I'd like to fix the flaw so's the thing
makes sense...
Any suggestions that the Traveller Gurus use?
