Ah, ok.

Anyways nails don't heal and it causes problems, this kinda unbalances combat as you can just attack fingers and hope you break a nail and wait for your opponant to die of infection.

I highly doubt that strategy works. Also I've never seen an adventurer die of infection in 31.18.

also you had to wait for quite some game months so the opponent could die of infection... probably not the best option, as you could just throw heaps over heaps of small rocks at it, which would be a lot faster...
