   * In melee combat, an attacker that is larger than their target is harder to hold off, while an attacker that is smaller than their target is easier to hold off. The Size difference is factored into the attacker's [[Morale]] roll for brute-forcing through a [[repel]] attempt.   * In melee combat, an attacker that is larger than their target is harder to hold off, while an attacker that is smaller than their target is easier to hold off.

   * Units of Size 6 or greater wield bigger versions of the weapons that units of Size 5 or smaller use; these are one point Longer, so they are better at repelling and have a longer reach.   * Units of Size 6 or greater wield bigger versions of the weapons that units of Size 5 or smaller use; these are one point Longer, so they are better at repelling and have a longer reach.

       * {{:abilities:trample.png?nolink }} Units with the **[[Trample]]** ability will displace enemies **instead**, dealing a minimum of 1 damage to them in the process. The Size gap only has to be 1 or greater in this case, and the displacement drives out all enemy units in the square -- unless they're killed, of course. The Size of the Trampler does not affect the chance of being smushed for additional damage-- this is determined entirely by the target's [[Defence Skill]] without their Shield parry-- but it does add to the smush damage. Note that Tramplers do //not// displace allies unless they're in a [[rout]], since their displacing always does damage.       * {{:abilities:trample.png?nolink }} Units with the **[[Trample]]** ability will displace enemies **instead**, dealing a minimum of 1 damage to them in the process.

   * When a mounted unit's mount dies, the rider (if they're still alive) falls off, taking damage partly determined by the Size difference. There are some exceptions, however, such as Chariots.   * When a mounted unit's mount dies, the rider (if they're still alive) falls off, taking damage partly determined by the Size difference.

-  * Units set on fire (typically by [[Fire]] magic) take damage that scales off their Size, since bigger units have more surface area that can be burned. The damage is not [[DRN|open-ended]]; it's a roll with a maximum equal to the target's Size, divided by 2, and then rounded up.+  * Units [[burn|set on fire]] (typically by [[Fire]] magic) take damage that scales off their Size, since bigger units have more surface area that can be burned.

   * Units have an innate resistance to [[paralysis]] (something typically dealt by [[Astral]] magic) equal to their Size, which reduces its duration by that much. This is since they have bigger brains, or more nerves to try to make numb, or something.   * Units have an innate resistance to [[paralysis]] (something typically dealt by [[Astral]] magic) equal to their Size, which reduces its duration by that much.
