Maneuver (Action)
 |
| Heroic Action Role-Play |
Sneak
Basic Action
You can use Maneuver to sneak about unnoticed. Make a Maneuver roll and compare it against the Spot rating of each observer. You must be in some plausible place of concealment to do this, but as susual te GM is expected to be lenient on this.
Once you have succeeded at this you are assumed to be under cover and hiding, you need not make additional Sneak rolls unless you want to move about, and you can do other actions as long as you remain where you are and still be hidden.
If you take an action that directly affects someone other than yourself, you become visible. This includes all attacks, and might include actions affecting only your friends, such as healing, at the GMs discretion. You cannot hide again until your next shot comes up.
Outmaneuver
Basic Action
You use this is combat to get a momentary advantage. It represents such maneuvers as outflanking, getting a height advantage, and causing someone to stumble. The roll will be heavily modified depending on how well you describe your stunt and use available props.
Make an opposed Maneuver roll against your target. If you succeed, add the Outcome as a modifier to your next skill roll against this target. You can also give away this advantage to someone else, effectively setting the target up for someone else's attack.
It you score an Outcome matching the target's Reflexes, you also inflict a Setback; the target suffers some direct penalty, as appropriate to the situation and how you described your outmaneuver. He might drop his weapon, fall over a cliff, temporarily show off his unarmored flank and so on.
