Visual Epic
You catch the rider off guard and drive your spear into a chink in his armour. You have a whopping +10 attack bonus this round!
The rider is not at a good angle or distance to retaliate. The cataphract has a -3 attack penalty this round.
You:
Attack- 20 + (3 x Roll) = Hit (Between 23 and 38)
Defense- 4 + (1 x Roll) = Block (Between 5 and 10)
Agility- 1.Roll 1to3 2.Roll 1to3 (Chance of dodge 25%)
Health- 107 Points
Cataphract:
Attack- 25 + (1 x Roll) = Hit (Between 26 and 31)
Defense- 5 + (2 x Roll) = Block (Between 7 and 17)
Agility- 1.Roll 1to2 2.Roll 1to1 (Chance of dodge 5.6%)
Health- 58 Points
Tally both opponents' health for this round.
(You calculate how much health you lose. You don't dodge the hit, and the cataphract hits for 28, which with its attack penalty is brought down to 25. You now roll for how much damage you do the cataphract. The first roll for its agility is 2. The second roll is 1. Both are within the given range, so the cataphract manages to dodge your attack! It said in the description you hit it, but the die roll takes precedence. The cataphracts attack penalty is still valid however. Since there was no change in the cataphracts health, the number just carries on to the next row.)
