Comment on “The Escape Clause”

Hey, I was tooling around in the archives and found this post.

Alexis, I want to ask for clarification on this statement:

"A leveled fighter, for example, with 2 attacks per round, would only lose one of those attacks if 1/4 damage was done against him. To lose both attacks, 1/3 of total damage would need to be done. 1/2 is necessary to stop 3 attacks, 2/3 to stop 4 attacks, 3/4 to stop 5 attacks and so on."

I thought that dealing 1/4 of current HP in one hit stuns the recipient of the hit so that they can take no action. I interpret these sentences here to mean that combatants with multiple attacks are allowed to take their extra attacks EVEN WHILE STUNNED, unless the additional HP thresholds of 1/3, 1/2, etc. are reached by the stunning hit.

Am I right? If not, what's up?
