Page 11 of the LRB, it is said the following:
"Note that no Armour roll is made for a player that is
pushed off the pitch, they are automatically injured."
But nothing is said about players that are knocked down before being pushed off the pitch. The rule can be understood as if it was the contrary in the other cases, but the rule can also be understood as if in any case the player ends into the crowd no AV roll is made.
Some said in this forum that the rule said not to roll any AV when pushed, but I do not agree the official rule is clear. Will it be sthg about it in the next LRB version in october? What do you say?

No, even if you get a knockdown you only ever make the injury roll (and it never counts towards your SPPs). When you knock someone down on the pitch, they can suffer damage. When pushed into the crowd, they aren't hurt since their fall is cushioned by the crowd... who promptly kick the <expletive-deleted> out of them.

LRB 2.0 pp 11
The defending player is pushed back and then knocked down in the square they are moved to. The attacking player may follow up the defender.
So they are pushed into the crowd 1st.

Would they be kind to make it clearer in the next LRB add a sentence like that for example:
"There is no AV roll to make when a player ends up into the crowd, even if he was pushed back AND knocked over as a result of the blockdice roll"

I never doubted about Ian. I was talking for Martynq who did not quote anything to prove what he said, on the contrary of Ian. But, I do not say he is wrong, I just would like him to back his words like Ian.

But I was backing up Martin.
