Editing The Islands In the Wind Rules (section)

=Combat=

==Initiative==

1d10+Agil or Wits. If you are not using Mediation, at any time, you can choose to gain 1 Fatigue to raise your Initiative by 4.

==Actions==

At the start of a round, declare which Defense you are using for that round. On your Initiative, declare an Action. If your attack has the Slow modifier, it takes place on a later initiative.

==Attacking==

To make an Attack, you roll 2d10+Mastery+Stat-Difficulty. The defender, in turn, rolls the same thing for their chosen defense, ties going to the attacker.

==Critical==

If the Attacker rolls doubles, the attack is a Critical, and the attacker can add 4 points worth of modifiers to the Technique, but give you a level of Fatigue.

==Damage==

Damage is Stat+1d10+Damage Modifier from the attack, and is reduced by armor.

If you take more damage than your Base HP in one attack, you lose your next turn.

==Fatigue==

Each level of Fatigue gives a -1 penalty to all rolls. Fatigue is generated whenever any 2d10 roll gives Doubles, except for Effortless techniques.

==Improvising Techniques==

If you don't use Magic, you can do this-- just throw elements together. You've got a -2 to Hit, though. Best used when you discover that you need, say, a high-damage high-piercing attack that you don't have, or need to create teamwork by Restraining an enemy for an ally to hit, and you don't have a Technique for that, either. Improvised Techniques may not take Effortless. In addition, they are always Fatiguing.
