* Missile weapons normally only get half damage
bonus, but those asterisked allow no bonus at all.
** Missile weapon skills do not include the ability to parry. If attempting to parry with a missile weapon, Club skill is typically used. † Arrows and Crossbow bolts weigh/cost 1lb/£2; Hand crossbow bolts 5oz/£5; Arbalest bolts 1.5lb/£10; Sling stones 2oz/free (or £1 for lead bullets, which do +1 damage). Repeater Crossbows have capacity of 6/8/10/12 and take 5 rounds to fully reload, or 1 round per bolt. Arbalests require a cranequin (hand crank) to rewind, or 15 Str. ‡ Missile weapons thus marked cannot shoot more than once per round, regardless of user skill/speed, due to preparation time. |

Brawling: Unarmed combat punches, kicks, head-butts, etc. Can parry Brawl/Grapple attacks; parrying Grapple holds is Easy (x2). Can parry other attacks, but successful parry takes minimum damage on the parrying arm/leg. Hits on armed/armoured targets take damage equal to that blocked (but this damage is reduced by armour, as Gauntlets).
Grappling: Can parry Grapple/Brawl attacks. If parried by weapon/shield, the weapon/shield arm is grabbed. Successful Grapple grabs hold of a random location and allows a grapple effect next round, if hold maintained: Immobilize (STR v STR - cannot act or use held limb), Throw (STR+DEX v SIZ+DEX - thrown d6x3ft, fall prone, DEXx5 or d6 damage), Knockdown (STR+SIZ v STR - overbear, DEXx5 or 1 damage), Disarm (immobilized limb: STR+SIZ v STR - drops held weapon/item), Injure (inflict d3+db damage, STR v STR to keep hold), Strangle (CONx1 or d3 damage, STR v STR to keep hold, else automatically maintained), Change (DEX v DEX - swap hold to chosen location), Extend (DEX v DEX+SIZ - grab another chosen location, if failed STR v STR to keep hold). Once held, target can attack grappler only with Short-range weapons (dagger, fist, etc). Special: +3 on resistance rolls, automatically maintain 1 rnd; Critical: double resistance rolls, automatically maintain 1 rnd.
