>RQ3 rules. RQ2, maybe, RQ4, yes.

Slashes, and indeed crushes appear in RQ2 as a way of letting people
without impaling weapons do 'special' attacks.

SLASH
1) Roll weapon damage normally twice and add them together. Then roll
STR/SIZ damage bonus and add. This is the total damage.
2)The weapon becomes stuck in your foe.

CRUSH
Roll weapon damage normally and also roll normal STR/SIZ damage bonus.
Then add your maximum damage bonus from STR/SIZ. This is the total
damage.
Obviously, crushes are useless if you have no damage bonus due to
STR/SIZ!

Hope this is illuminating in some small way.
