Maybe a stupid question, but we couldn't find it: Situation as follows: I move into Base-to-Base Contact with an enemy The enemy reacts by shooting I declare CC, Martials Arts Level 3 Is the -3 Opponent Mod from Martial Arts applicable to the BS-Attack of the enemy? Or only to CC-Attacks/AROs/Rolls?
Just want to supply a rules quote (second bullet point "Opponent MOD", remember that if Berserk is involved it is no longer a Face to Face so the Opponent MOD would not be applied): http://infinitythewiki.com/en/CC_Special_Skills How to Read CC Charts Some CC Special Skills give a trooper a series of MODs and advantages that are displayed in Charts with the following elements: Attack MOD: A MOD to the CC Attribute of the user when making a CC Attack. Opponent MOD: A MOD applied to the Attribute of an enemy when making a Face to Face Roll. Damage MOD: A MOD to the PH Attribute of the user to determine the Damage of a successful CC Attack. Burst MOD: A MOD to the B value of the user's CC Weapon (Knife, CC Weapon, Pistol...) when making a CC Attack. Type of Damage: Special effects applied to the Damage done in CC by the user. Special: General special effects the user can apply.
I actually found this rule, but wasn't sure if _every_ Face to face Roll was meant. But yes, it just says "Attribute" so it obviously means every used Attribute. Lost me a Close Combat, but the game was going south anyways, so ... I'll use it in a future game to my advantage
