 Overview of most rules relating to combat. These rules are meant to provide a framework for combat engagements. Real fights are far more complex and cannot be put into such boxes. However with some descriptive interactions and find "the best fit" most options will fall into these categories. Exceptions always exist and an acceptable outcome should be discussed as a group. The GM as always has final say when rules questions arise. The point of combat is to drive engaging game play and story telling. Asking if you can do a backflip off a wall and slice a goblin in half is fun and encouraged, even if little combat advantage or ruling is required. Overview of most rules relating to combat.
