As you get to some of the higher experience levels, you will begin to score critical hits more and more often. There are five levels of critical hit, ranging from:

Type Magnitude
Critical hit types table
CRITICAL 2x damage
CRUSHING CRITICAL 4x damage
OBLITERATING CRITICAL 8x damage
ANNIHILATINGLY POWERFUL CRITICAL 16x damage
WORLD-SHATTERING CRITICAL 32x damage

Note: if you have a 10% chance to score a standard critical hit, then you have a 10% chance for a standard critical to become a crushing critical hit, and a 10% chance for a crushing critical to become an obliterating critical hit, etc.

In aethership vs. denizen combat, crew members can score critical hits while manning a battle turret. The chance of critical hits there is determined by one's skill in Aethercraft rather than level, however.

Note that certain denizens are immune to critical hits - notably city and commune guards and certain extraordinarily powerful denizens (i.e., the Demon Lords of Nil).
