Default Re: [MA] Silent Sentry Removal

Providing a sentry isn't totally surprised, I use the Solider skill to determine if the guard does something to alert his fellows rather than simply fight for his life. Depending on damage and hit location of the removal attempt, the soldier roll will be penalized. Covering the mouth, severing the windpipe, deflating lungs and bashing in the brain all would impact the ability of the sentry to alert.

There was some discussion at our table about screaming in pain being automatic, but during the next fight I describe a hit on the PC as follows, "You take 8 cutting from the ax and scream like a girl." It was soon agreed that trained combatants typically bear the pain as best they can without crying out.
