APPENDIX G: INJURY CATEGORIES

The injuries to the various regions of the quarry are rationally categorised as

Category K implies categories F, P, L, R and I.
Category C implies K if the quarry can be quickly recovered (i.e. by retriever)
Category C reverts to category I if the quarry is not quickly recovered (i.e. regains consciousness and may evade capture if capable)

The category of injury associated with each quarry region depends on the depth of penetration achieved by any impacting pellets. With increasing range the pellets tend to penetrate less: some quarry regions then revert to less critical categories of injury. This grading of injury with depth is engendered by the quarry datafile.
