A character may spend an action to perform an offensive maneuver using one
|
||
of the weapons they have available.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>Choose a target for your attack.</p>
|
||
<p>You must know the position of the target and be able to see them.</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
You must be able to reach the target with the weapon you are using;
|
||
flying enemies, for instance, cannot be reached by melee attacks.
|
||
</p>
|

</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Perform an Accuracy Check using the formula indicated by the weapon
|
||
you are attacking with. The Difficulty Level is equal to the target’s
|
||
Defense score. If you succeed, you hit the target; if you fail, it
|
||
means they managed to anticipate, evade or negate your offensive.
|
||
</p>
|

<ul>
|

<li>
|
||
A fumble indicates an automatic failure and a critical success means
|
||
you hit your target regardless of their Defense. They also generate
|
||
opportunities.

</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
The Game Master may apply situational modifiers (+2 or -2) to your
|
||
Accuracy Check based on especially favorable or hindering
|
||
circumstances.

</ul>

</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
If you hit the target, you deal damage based on the formula indicated
|
||
by the weapon you attacked with. This will generally be a sum of your
|
||
Accuracy Check's High Roll and a fixed value based on the weapon's
|
||
power.
