====== Damage Classes ======

<html>
<P>The following Integrated Damage Class table is for use with real world
information about weapons and energy output. For example, if you know the
energy output of a gun in foot-pounds, check the energy column of the chart,
cross reference to DC, and round up. For example, a .44 Magnum produces 1200
FP. On the chart, that cross references to 2d6, as 1200 is less than 2000 and
greater than 1000, rounding up. Energy ouput is listed in Joules, foot-pounds,
and Watts, all of which are numerically equivalent for this purpose. The
Explosives column is the amount of TNT that will produce the indicated Damage
Classes. Other explosives are more or less powerful for the same mass, as
indicated in the separate Relative Explosives Power table. </P>
