Facing Danger & Combat:
Life-threatening situations and enemies have a Danger Rating. Roll a number of dice equal to your current Might. In combat, any die that scores equal or over your Weapon Rating counts as a success. In non-combat situations, a 5 or a 6 is a success. Compare the number of successes to the Danger Rating:
- Over: Triumph! Choose one Reward, or two Rewards and take a Wound. Progress to favourable outcome.
- Equal: Hard-earned victory. No Reward, or choose one Reward and take a Wound. Progress to favourable outcome.
- Less: Defeat! Take a number of Wounds equal to the enemy’s Danger Rating. If still alive, progress to unfavorable outcome.
After resolving the situation:
- Lower your current Might rating by one for each Wound. A Wound can be negated by burning a Luck Token or losing your Weapon.
