On the dodge roll, the dice pool is 6. Trading dice, at a 4 to one ratio as mentioned in the rules, it's only one hit. At 8 dice it becomes 2 hits.
And for the soak roll, I wanted to show how bad the damage was, so I gave the highest possibe hits. Which would be 5. It's not always going to be the case, but it does show how vicious it is.
Yeah, the extra point does mean life or death. I concede that point. I am undercutting the survivability of the victim.
The reason I didn't use the actual averages, was because the rules give an easy out. The 4-1 rule. Besides, it makes even numbers, and makes it easier to work the numbers in this case.
Yes, I will admit the 13P in't likely to happen, neither is the 4P. But it will be in between the 2. Using the average damage would be between 6 and 7. Still two hits at that would be just as bad if not worse.
