How this system moves
Commit one action
Movement, attack, reload, equipment changes, item use, and mounting compete for the character's next action.
Live with the aftermath
Spend ammunition, absorb wounds and armor wear, recover, surrender, pursue, loot, or retreat.
WORLD RULES
What the server remembers
Distance and movement decide the hit
Accuracy falls with range and difficult target motion, while target size and weapon characteristics change the chance.
Armor has limits
Penetration depends on weapon, armor class, and distance; hits can wear armor even when they do not wound the wearer.
Death transfers opportunity
Carried items and equipment remain at the death site, while the same character returns empty-handed in the town safe zone.
WHY IT MATTERSJoin the waitlist→
Force changes ownership, not just health bars.
A fight can break a route, consume a town's ammunition, expose valuable equipment, create a bounty proof, or end an agreement.
