I was not here when you went over that

not i

i was not but it is a shot that is spasific corect not just swinging your wepon at them it is where you call where you would like to hit

Correct my good man, It is when you aim for a specific part like the head or a hand. You take a penalty when making the roll as it is harder to hit, but should you succeed it has the potential to do a lot more damage to the target.

kinda common sense thing then right?

for sake of arguement, I am not going to name people in this lesson.

I have been watching when a group of people went to a hobbits house, and realized there was a lot of random swinging going on, when they encountered a few large rodents.

"Swings at the rats" unnacceptable.
"Rathil, I will be attacking the one on the left" Acceptable

then you would roll to see if you hit the rat, if you did, you do damage. if not, meh, what can I say?

If you really call your shot, like in game of 9 ball, it will be at a disadvantage, your to-hit may go down a little, but if you hit, the damage may be greater.

just swinging wildy never gets anything done

Good point Barbus. If you simply swing at the rats it is hard for the story teller to tell if that particular rat has already been attacked and dealt damage. I need specific information to accurately run the combat.

Just like in reality, you can only fight one person at a time, not 3 or 4.

Exactly. Alas, I for not must retire but I will pick up where Barbus leaves off. We will get you all battle ready yet. Don't you worry.

night Rathil

Props herself at the bar with a drink in her hand and looks around the room.

"looks like i missed all the fun"

greetings

That covers tonight's three subjects. If you have any questions, leave a message for either Rathil, or myself, and we will be more than happy to elaborate. The next lesson will be covering magic, and its uses. That will be when I return, I must be going I told Ifritius that I would catch up with him.
