Close Combat (CC)

Urban combat, attempting to take a building, or ship to ship space-boarding often occur in reduced spaces, which favors close combat with bladed weapons (knives, machetes, sabers, swords, claws, etc.) which we generically call Melee Weapons.


Interacting with a Close Combat

Any Trooper in Silhouette contact with an Allied Model that is in the Engaged State may only declare CC Attack, Dodge or other related Skills that may be used in CC. For example, in these circumstances declaring Skills such as Doctor or Engineer on a Trooper in Engaged State is not allowed.


Movement Sequence and CC

NOTE

Close Combat is often associated with a Movement, the most common game sequence in this case is the following:

  1. The Active Player (Orange) consumes an Order and declares Move.
  2. The Reactive Player (Blue) declares CC Attack as ARO.
  3. The Active Player (Orange) declares CC Attack as second Short Skill of the Order.
  4. The corresponding Face to Face Roll is performed. Face to Face Roll:
    1. Active Player: 1 Die in CC.
    2. Reactive Player: 1 Die in CC.
