Modern Mythos - ep.024 - En-garde!

COMBAT:

Initiative:

• Descending DEX order
• Tied DEX values are broken by relevant Combat Skill (descending)

Action:

• One main action
• Time is flexible for the situation, as governed by the Keeper, but it’s typically just a few seconds… 3-5 seconds
• Movement can be included in the action, but only if the movement and action can be reasonably executed within the 3-5 second timeframe
• Types of Actions:
• Attack with Skill
• Fighting Maneuver (How does it differ from an Attack)
• Flee
• Cast a Spell
• Other Non-Combat Action

Attack with Skill:

• Roll relevant Skill check
• Level of success (Regular/Hard/Extreme) could influence the scale of success or amount of damage inflicted
• If both combatants are engaged in Melee Combat, then both combatants roll their relevant Skill check – Attacker vs Defender
• Defender can Dodge or Fight Back
• Dodge: In case of a tied level of success, Defender wins
• Fight Back: In case of a tied level of success, Attacker wins
