So I need to update some more help files. That's what you're saying.

Yeah Meissa, this isn't soccer, you don't gotta dive bomb someone to headbutt them.

The lag on a successful headbutt (used by a PC that is) is about equal to the lag on a failed headbutt, and both are about equal to kick. There's no prone effect for a missed headbutt.

EDIT: Though the helpfile may be talking about a critical failure on a headbutt, which knocks out the headbutter instead of the target.

That would have happened if the Headbutt failed.

The Headbutt succeeded, but did 0 damage but because the Headbutt succeded, it got a chance to stun. I got luck on the damage roll but unlucky on the stun roll.

The helpfile doesn't need changing. A critically failed headbutt doesn't send the headbutter prone, it knocks them unconscious just like a critical success headbutt.

Adding the non-critical success/failure effects (and hinting that you can mod head butt) aren't necessarily bad changes to the help file, so I'll probably do that even though I am apparently a soccer-mom noob. :P

I just can't get the picture of every barbarian leaping headfirst at their enemy out of my head now.

Great, now I have that image set to the tune of LL Cool J's "Mama Said Knock You Out." Thanks. :-?
