	Combat will be turn-based. A turn begins with the first player to take an offensive action, and ends once every player in the combat session has had a chance to roll their attack(s) and/or retreat for that turn. Defensive actions do not count as an attack action unless the player is attempting to use them to deal damage at the same time. For example, if someone attempted to punch you with a [[Brawl]] roll, and you defend yourself with [[Dodge]] or [[Toughness]], the defending roll doesn't count as an attack action, and you are allowed to either attempt to retaliate or run from the fight on your turn. Turn order ~~will~~ be determined immediately before combat begins with an Initiative contest, which will consist of a single [https://paxrepublica.net/index.php?title=Category:Reflexes Reflexes] roll (see '''+help +init'''). The player who achieves the highest roll will have the opportunity to take the first combat action, and the player who rolled the lowest will be last.		Combat will be turn-based.

	Characters will suffer a -1 penalty for each extra action in addition to the 1st action, up to a maximum of 5 extra actions. This penalty increases by 1 for each additional roll, and applies both in and out of combat. An extra action is defined as anything that requires a separate roll, except for defensive actions against an attacker. Keep in mind that attacking multiple times in a turn will incur the penalty while the defending player does not suffer the same penalty. Players with NPCs do not need to take the multi-action penalty for the NPC's first action even if it is in addition to the player character's action; however, any extra actions in addition to the first will incur the multi-action penalty in the same way it as player characters.

	However, not needing to roll does ''not'' mean you are not beholden to what's on your character's sheet. In other words, this cannot be used to justify your character doing something that isn't even within the scope of its capabilities. The general rule is that the action should be ''possible'' with a skill roll (i.e. would not require a roll higher than your character is able to achieve with the amount of points he has in the skill). <br>		However, not needing to roll does ''not'' mean you are not beholden to what's on your character's sheet.

	So in the given example, if the character using Telepathy has +3 in the Telepathy skill, it may be allowed to read the target's thoughts and/or project some moderately complex concepts, but should not be editing or erasing the target character's memories even if all involved players have agreed to it, as that would require a roll exceeding 30 and that is not possible with only +3 in Telepathy. ~~<br>~~		So in the given example, if the character using Telepathy has +3 in the Telepathy skill, it may be allowed to read the target's thoughts and/or project some moderately complex concepts, but should not be editing or erasing the target character's memories even if all involved players have agreed to it, as that would require a roll exceeding 30 and that is not possible with only +3 in Telepathy.

			Remember, it is each player's responsibility to keep track of any situational modifiers that may apply to their character during the course of a scene, since only the owning player and staff are able to see character sheets.
