Attack
In use
How often the blow lands.
What it governs
- Accuracy. Attack, Strength and Defence stand as three separate skills, and you can see all three.Charter, Part II — Combat group
- Trained on real violence, animals included. Killing a beast carries no infamy.
- Better equipment makes a citizen more effective and never more permitted.
What happens today
A citizen can strike, and the blow lands or is evaded on two facts the world already has: whether the other body could see it coming, and whether it had footing to move away. The world counts every swing.
What opens, and when
The charter gives Attack no ladder and no levels. Nothing is drawn here because there is nothing yet to draw.
Not yet
Accuracy itself. The split is made — a swing trains Attack, being struck trains Defence, hauling trains Strength — but no roll anywhere asks whether a blow landed: a body inside the reach is always hit. The level's only reader is the experience it prices for the body on the other end of the blow.
