Flinching

Flinching is mentioned in a couple places in reference to attacks that hit eyes.
B405 under Liquids in the Face mentions:
:On a failure, he flinches: -2 to further defenses that turn, and -2 to any DX or Sense roll on his next turn.
MA72 under Go for the eyes! mentions:
:Any failure means he flinches and has -1 to attack and defense rolls until the end of his next turn
Both types of flinching penalties only happen after a failed Will Roll.
In the case of MA's GFTE it is triggered by a successful attack against the eyes (-9 to hit)
In the case of Campaigns' LITF it is triggered by a successful attack against the face (-5 to hit)
