 === Fractures ===
-Sometimes, a limb will become '''fractured'''. This is indicated by a red diagram of your bone appearing in the relevant limb. Despite how scary is looks, it isn't fatal, nor does it within of itself incur bleeding. A leg fracture is less important than an arm fracture, since you need your arms to shoot, unless your squad is planning to move out soon. Use a '''Splint''' on the relevant limb to stabilize it (in ACE terms it functionally just returns the limb to it's original state).

Despite how scary is looks, it isn't fatal, nor does it within of itself incur bleeding. Arm fractures will mess with your ability to aim and shoot. A leg fracture reduces your speed to a snail's pace. Leg fractures are less important than arm fractures, since you need your arms to shoot, ''unless'' your squad is planning to move out soon. Use a '''Splint''' on the relevant limb to stabilize it (in ACE terms it functionally just returns the limb to it's original state). '''If you have a fracture of any kind and have no splints, this is valid reason alone to call a medic'''.
