Situation A - Troll Magician with a Body of 8 and a Willpower of 4. His 
meat has 12 Physical Damage Boxes. His astral form has 10 Physical 
Damage 
Boxes. He takes 10 boxes of physical damage on the astral. What happens?

Theory A1 - He is disrupted and snaps back to his body with a nice set 
of 
broken bones, bleeding lesions, and other assorted maladies.

Theory A2 - He dies on the spot, astrally and meat.
