Here we will vote for how injuries will be settled. I'll pair options for "yes" or "no".

Characters are no longer benched on two consecutive critical rolls.

Instead of -1 to multiple stats, -1 to one stat.

If Benching is dropped only then will this be an option. Make injuries cumulative. Injury in a second game causes penalty to increase by 1 or a new stat becomes -1.

Question - no matter the change that is made, we have had a modifier to the character. Can we use outsiders or other effects that state a figure can't be modified to negate the injury modifier?

No.

I need to update the rules language but it should read, "an injured character treats X combat value as if the printed value was 1 less."
