Some combat queries
I'm writing up my own set of combat cards, and I've run into some places were phrases are a little unclear:
Flurry of Blows/Mighty Blows - is the 1 FP paid before each attack, or is the cost paid before all attacks (and if it is, is it a combined cost for purposes of Fit/V.Fit)? Sacrificial Dodge, Dodge and Drop, Dive and Cover, etc. - For some, it isn't clear if a retreat before will prevent them, or if it is possible to retreat afterwards. |

Re: Some combat queries
I believe these options are special cases of Retreat - thus, you cannot use them and a normal Retreat in the same turn.

So if you decide to make 3 attacks at -18, you have to pay 3 FP to reduce it to -9. Then it doesn't matter if your target goes down on the first attack and you can't use the rest. For Mighty blow I agree that you can pay per attack after each. Hmm I see your points, it isn't explicitly mentioned that you can't both make a Retreat and a Dodge and Drop in the same turn as they are two separate types of dodges. But we have always played as you can't. And I think thats the intention as they are just "retreat" but against melee or ranged. |
