In difficult terrain the result of the "slowness die / dice" is deduced from the movement (cm). In very difficult terrain the movement is halved and the result of the die (or dice) is deduced as above.

Carry both a crossbow and a pavise: 4 cm. TERRAIN bushes, or high crops woods, forest hard slope SHOOTING javelin light handgun foot difficult difficult difficult

Movement in pavise wall, and/or ranks of lancers : 12 cm (if trained to move in close order). cannot be shot at ? if crouched immobile (at + than 2 cm) if 10 cm or more (of forest width) 10 - 20 cm 6 ext. 7 20 - 40 cm 6 6 ext. 6 7 ext. 20- 30 cm (8) 1 at armour 5 40 - 60 cm 7 7 ext. 7 ext. (8) ext.

Short bow mounted : 1 if shooting while moving ; other weapons : must shoot on foot and immobile.

"ext." : exterior, cannot shoot from window or arrow slit.

In MELEE the longer weapons strike first. Result (die + modifiers) higher than the class of the enemy: hit. Equal to his class: he recoils. Smaller than his class: missed. If the enemys armour is higher than his class (armour 4 or armour 5) the die result should also be higher than his armour to hit him, otherwise he recoils. "Natural 1" die roll: missed (even with good modifiers). "Natural 7" ( = double natural 6) in Melee: hit (even with bad modifiers). If two opponents roll simultaneously a "hit" result (or a "recoil" result), only the higher class one kills his enemy (or forces him to recoil). If they are same class, the highest armour (4 or 5) one kills his enemy (etc). If they are same class and armour, the one who rolled the highest natural die kills his enemy (etc).

SHOOTING MODIFIERS Modifiers "caused by terrain" are not added. Total of modifiers "caused by terrain" and "by target" cannot be worse than 2. Modifiers caused by terrain: target on foot and can be seen behind cover: wall, earthen bank, bushes, large opening in a wall, window, battlement, etc 1 or behind no more than 10 cm of forest or target on foot behind a very narrow opening or arrow slit in a very strong wall or "furtive" target (a "furtive target" is a target hidden at the beginning and at the end of the game turn) Modifiers caused by target: short bow, sling, at armour 4; or javelin, longbow, crossbow, or black powder weapon at long range, at armour 5 short bow, sling, at armour 5 target behind pavise / or in "pavise wall"
