DODGES


Dodge Maneuvers involve avoiding or stopping damage. They inlude Blocks, which are used to block or deflect an attack, and Evasions, which a fighter uses to remove himself from harm's way.



Blocks


Blocks prevent a fighter from being damaged by allowing her to block, stop or deflect an incoming attack. They improve a fighter's ability to soak damage. A character using Block adds his Dodge to her Stamina when soaking damage.
