This is the critical injuries table as it appears in the Cinematic Starter Kit for the Alien RPG. It’s shared with permission.
In the Alien RPG, when you are knocked down to zero Health, roll a D66 and consult the critical injury table.
The same table is recreated below for screen readers and in case you cannot make out the image.
