COMBAT MODIFIERS

Conditions

Generally speaking, any situational modifier created by the attacker's position or tactics applies to attack roll or maneuver roll, while any situational modifier created by the defender's position, state, or tactics applies to the defender's Defense or maneuver difficulty. The Narrator judges what bonuses and penalties apply, using the Combat Modifiers table as a guideline.
