Attacking

Charging Attack

If a character travels more than 5 meters in a straight line before attacking, all in a single turn, the distance traveled (in meters) minus 5 is added to the power of the attack.

Readying weapons

Unless surprised, characters will usually draw their weapons before the beginning of combat. If they have to ready the weapon during an action round, drawing the weapon from it's sheath, holster, scabbard, belt, or other convenient location is a quick action.

Attacking from a Distance

The difficulty of hitting a target depends on distance, weapon and target size. A ranged weapon has a -1 attack modifier for every 10% of it's maximum range. When a character is attacked with a missile weapon they use their agility instead of a combat modifier for their defense roll. (See Character Development/Inventory Management for more about the relationship of combat modifer and agility to hand weapons and missile weapons.)
