	Throwing Accuracy is also affected by ~~other factors~~:		Throwing Accuracy is also affected by critical wounds and health percentage:

	* Wounds: -10% per wound up to but not beyond -90%.		Throwing Accuracy = Base Throwing Accuracy × a × b
	* The percentage of remaining health: Throwing Accuracy × ~~(max health~~ &~~ndash~~; current health) / (max health)
			* a = 1 - 0.1 * Wounds(capped at 9)
			* b = current health / max health
