Default Changing Dex Order of Action

Four figures are in a fight:
A and B are attacking C, while D is attacking B.

A
C
BD

A acts first, the C, then D, then B based on Dx

A hits C and knocks them down, causing C to lose their action.

D would normally go next...but B, who is attacking C as well, just got +4 Dx.

Does B now go?

Yes, the next figure to act is the one with the highest adjDX at the time of action (p 102, 107).

Also, p 107 is especially relevant for your example, describing how a single figure can have multiple adjDX's depending on which action they take -- including which enemy they're attacking.

Two exceptions are listed at the bottom of p 107 (pole charges and bow second shots). The other explicit exception is range penalties for missile attacks, that is described elsewhere.
