    Hi all, i'm quite new to Infinity and i'm a bit confuse about a mechaniscs. It's all about AROs and multiple face to face roll. To be more clear i'll go with some example.

    1) Tropper A activate declaring a Move Short Skill, tropper B is eligible for an ARO and declare that it will shoot to A. B declare a Dodge (case a) or a BS Attack (case b).
    Case a: If A win the face to face rolle he dodge B attack (ALL attack in case he have a Burst grater than 1?).
    Case b: if A win the face to face it hit B, and vice versa (same question, with how many bullets A hit B in various scenario?)

    2) Tropper A activate declaring a Move Short Skill, trooper B anc C are eligible for AROs. A declare dodge and he will dodge only the Shoot it actually pass the roll versus. Right? (example: A dodge with a roll with 12 success, but B and C roll both a success of 11 and 15. C will hit A with 1 bullet. I'm asusming all burst of 1 atm).
    If A declare a BS reaction with a Burst of 2, shooting 1 bullet each there will be 2 roll from A and 1 roll each from A and C Right?. But if A shoot only to B, there wil be 2 roll of A and 1 roll of B in a face to face, while C is not a Face to Face but a Plain roll? Correct?

    Situation 1 If the dodge roll is higher than all of B shots than A dodges all of them. If only higher than some than hit by the ones that bear the dodge.
    Situation 2 pretty much right. If A does not shoot at C than C gets a free do I hit roll. If a 15 would hit than yes your dodge only works on 1 bullet

    Thanks!! Adding a bit of complexity, if A score a Critical roll, he cancel ALL the incoming Shoot from B (in the case 2 i mean).
    Vice vers if B score a Crit he surclass the whole Burst of A (for only the bullet directed towards him i guess).

    Critical Hits cancel each other out, so if both A and B rolls crits then all attacks will be cancelled.
    Since A is the active model, whether they merely equals their opponent's roll or if they beat it functionally doesn't matter. Had A been reactive model, then it matters whether their Dodge is won or merely cancelled because cancelled means they won't get to do their declared 2" Move.

    Maybe i write it badyl, sorry. I mean A shoot a burst of 2 against B, rolling 2 normal succes. B rolls 1 CRIT. How this work? B cancel all the result of A (since was non critical) or only 1 ?

    All worse successes will be cancelled by an opponent's a better success.

    So, for an extreme example (and a bit of complexity), imagine if a Fusilier Hacker declares a Move out in desperation to reach an Objective. The entire Yu Jing army can see the paramedic, and they all declare BS Attack except for one Guilang Assault Hacker, who is standing on the other side of the Objective, declares Basilisk. The Fusilier Hacker declares Dodge for their second Short Skill.
    The Fusilier rolls a 10. Critical roll.
    The Yu Jing player rolls 2 crits and 15 hits with BS Attack - all of which are cancelled by the Dodge critical roll.
    The Yu Jing player also rolls a single normal hit with Basilisk, but since Dodge can not be used to avoid Hacking Attacks, the Fusilier can not Dodge this attack and has to make a BTS save.
