This situation has only come up once ever in a game, but it's nagged at me ever since. With 5ER on the way, I figured this would be a good time to bring it up.
The character in question had a high amount of Knockback Resistance -- 8" pure, and another 8" from Density Increase -- that only worked when he was in contact with the ground. Another character made some lucky rolls, and managed to do 17" of Knockback. Would my character be Knocked Back only 1" (suffering minor injuries), 9" (suffering major injuries), or the full 17" (suffering fatal injuries)? Or would that basically be the GM's call based on Special Effect?
