====== Attack Modifiers ======

^ Cover ^ Attackers suffer a penalty when attempting to hit a target behind cover ^^
| Light Cover | -1  | Characters subtract 1 from their attack rolls if half or less of their target is obscured. |
| Medium Cover |  -2  | The penalty is increased to -2 if more than half of the target is hidden from view. This is the usual penalty for attacking a prone character (see [[rules:prone|Prone]]). |
| Heavy Cover |  -4  | The penalty is -4 if only a small part of the target is visible (prone beside a tree, behind a high wall, peeking around the corner of a building, etc.). |
| Near Total Cover |  -6  | Attacking through a very tight opening that provides near total cover, such as an arrow slit, subtracts 6 from enemy attack rolls. |
^ Illumination ^ Attacking a poorly-illuminated target is more difficult than a similar attack with good lighting, and incurs the following penalties ^^
| Dim |  -1  | Twilight, light fog, night with a full moon, and so on subtract 1 from combatants' attack rolls. |
| Dark |  -2  | Normal darkness with some ambient light (starlight, partial moon) inflicts a -2 penalty, and targets aren't visible outside of 10". |
| Pitch Darkness: |  -4  | Targets aren't visible at all in pitch blackness, but if a character knows roughly where a victim is (he can hear him, target is in a confined space, a glint of light shines off his blade, etc.), he may be attacked at -4. |
