This is mostly seen in hand to hand combat which involves using bladed weapons or fists or from a distance using firearms, the use of explosive devices such as grenades or anti-personnel landmines will cause a large flash of light and smoke and result in characters being flung an exaggerated distance, there is no dismemberment etc. In all instances there are some blood effects, but this is very fleeting and small in quantity.
