Actions & Attacks

---

Bludgeon (Light)

You attack your target with a forceful swinging motion, aiming for the largest impact and inflicting Bludgeoning damage. Use a hatchet, mace, war axe, or improvised bludgeoning light weapon.

Make a Bludgeon (One-Handed) check against the target's Passive Agility, or against the outcome of a Dodge or Block check if the target reacts.

Success:	The target takes Bludgeoning damage equal to your weapon's damage rating.
Critical Success:	Critical Hit. The target takes twice the usual amount of damage. A critical hit on a bludgeoning attack might stagger the target.
Failure:	You miss.
Critical Failure:	The GM decides the effects. You might injure yourself or an ally, drop your weapon, or hit a solid surface and damage it.
