Choose action from list of actions and resolve in initiative order
(Return to Step 3 until defeat or fighting stops)
Characters can mitigate damage the following two ways:
Injury: Reduce damage = Endurance Rank
Suffer -1 to all tests. Max injury = Endurance. Additional Injuries count as wounds.
Wound: Reduce damage = Endurance Rank x 4*
Suffer -1D to all tests. Max wounds = Endurance. If wounds exceed, you are defeated
Victor can choose the following fates or roll 1d6 and consult chart:

2 hands. 4-6: Lose a leg below the knee. Halve movement. -1D to all Athletic tests.
Your face is reduced to a gurgling mess. You'll recover, but look hideous. You must re-roll all
6's on persuasion tests.

Nothing happens.
You leave yourself open to attack, stumbling forward. -3 to combat defense next round.
You injure an ally if adjacent (Fighting) or in visible range (Marksmanship). If this isn't
applicable, damage yourself.
Drop Weapon 1d6 yards away from yourself as it slips from your grasp

Fatigue and Destiny Points in Combat
Effect
Can take Fatigue = Endurance for the following benefit (choose one):
Ignore Armor Penalty
Ignore 1 wound
Ignore all injuries
Gain lesser action
Can spend Destiny Point for following benefit:
Gain +1B
Remove -1D
Bestow -1D on opponent
Change +1B to +1D
Ignore Armor Penatly for 1 Round
Ignore many terrain effects (see combat flow chart)
Gain lesser action
Can burn a Destiny point for following benefit:
Remove all Damage and Injuries (Wounds Remain)
Avoid Certain Death (You are presumed dead until the Narrative is appropriate)
Decide how you are defeated (or, if you feel lucky, roll for yourself)
Transform a successful attack into a failure
Automatically succeed a task (only one degree of success)
Convert all +B to +D
Add +5 to test result
Permanently remove penalties associated with negative quality.

Penalty
Suffer -1 to all tests while fatigued. Fatigue resolves per hour of rest*

Destiny points aren't regained until you achieve some fantastic goal or resolve the current
chronicle.

In my opinion, burning these other than to for the first few effects is a waste. 50xp a pop.

General rules: Max range is Reach+1 (-1D). Attacking Reach-2 confers -1D penalty*. If you start in optimum reach and move 1yd, opponent rolls Fight vs Fight* if he wins, free attack
