question on dual weapon attack order and repelling
 

If the attacker has weapons length (say) 5 and 0 and defender has weapon length 4, presumably there would be a repelling check on the attack by weapon length 0, but would it be before of after the attack by weapon length 5, or is the order random? i.e. would the repelling be first reduced by the attack from the length 5 weapon before tackling the length 0 weapon?

Pretty sure main hand swings first, so that would be your answer. What is main hand? Well, that's a question for someone braver than I. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

I THINK hands go from left to right though, so a 4 armed creature would attack 1-2-3-4, rather than 2-1-4-3 or some other confusing variant.

Oh my, I'm braver than myself. < universe implodes >

Yep, weapons attack left to right in order.

I don't understand the question. One attack is repellable and the other isn't, so the unrepellable one will be repelled at full skill.

Well obviously there's no room for that kind of logic around here! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

So that answers every question in the thread. We just beat the forum!

Thanks for the help and clarifications.

I was under the impression that repelling gets reduced after every attack, as opposed to after every repel. Should have read the rule book more carefully. Need to re-think the usefulness of repel under specific situations. 8-)
