Editing Coup-De-Grace: Rules of Conflict (section)

==Attacks and Damage==
<br>When a mini makes an attack, roll a single D6 and compare it to the ''Defence Value'' of the target. If the die roll equals or exceeds the target's roll, you deal 1 HP damage to it (e.g. reducing the target from 3 to 2 HP).

Melee attacks can only be made against opponents that are adjacent and who you are facing.

Ranged attacks can only be made against opponents in your front 90 degree arc and where there is line of sight (you can draw a line between the centre of your squares without intersecting a square occupied by another model, or an obstacle that blocks line of sight).

You can never choose to attack your own minis. 

The following modifiers apply to attacks.

===Melee Attack Modifiers===
These modifiers apply only to ''melee attacks''. Note that ranged attacks at point blank range are NOT melee attacks, though they have their own set of problems close up!
* For each ally adjacent to and facing towards the same target, add a +1 to your attack roll. This is called a ''co-ordinated attack bonus''.
* If your opponent is facing directly away from you, gain +1 to your attack roll. This is called a ''backstab bonus''.
* For each opponent ''other than your target'' adjacent to and facing towards you, deduct 1 from your attack roll. This is called a ''distraction penalty''.
* Melee attacks against downed opponents gain +1 to the attack roll. This is called a ''melee coup de grace bonus''.

===Ranged Attack Modifiers===
These modifiers apply only to ''ranged attacks''. Note that melee attacks with reach beyond one square are NOT ranged attacks, they're just melee attacks with a longer reach!
* For each ally adjacent to your target, deduct 1 from your attack roll for ranged attacks. This is called a ''firing into melee penalty''.
* Ranged attacks suffer a -1 penalty for every ''range increment'' distance to the target. For example, if a weapon has a range increment of 6, then there is no penalty at 1-5 squares distance, -1 penalty at 6-11 squares distance, -2 penalty at 12-17 squares distance, and so on. This is called the ''range penalty''.
* Ranged attacks against downed opponents double the ''range penalty''. For example, -2 becomes -4.

===Magic Attack Modifiers===
* Magic attacks will specify in their description whether they are melee attacks or ranged attacks. They are then subject to the modifiers of that attack type.
* Some magic effects are not attacks at all, and aren't subject to the modifiers for melee or rnaged attacks.
