Title: Lance Charge
Post by: GM Craig on February 13, 2017, 01:09:32 PM

When charging with a lance or spear, and facing an opponent armed with anything else than a lance, the attacking character gets a +5 bonus to effective skill.

Charging characters can only apply their skill to a single opponent, so charging when outnumbered can leave a knight vulnerable.

When charging in this manner (with a lance or spear) the attacker uses their mount's damage stats instead of their own.

And Peredur has an 8d6 damage code, while my sumpter has a 3d6...are we sure Peredur is a horse?  Maybe it's a mammoth or something...

Peredur is a magnificent destrier. Of the most excellent breeding and I'm hoping that his progeny produce another few soon so I can sell them.
