Close Combat
Close_Combat When in close combat, several types of hand and leg attacks are available, which become unlocked upon reaching a certain skill and level.
Additionally, the minimum and maximum damage of both unarmed and melee weapons attacks receive a bonus from the user's Close Combat skill, provided it is over 100%.
The formula for the starting value of this skill at character creation is: 30% + (2 * AG + ST)
AP Cost is how many action points must be consumed to use the attack or weapon. The first number is an unaimed attack, and the number in parentheses is an aimed attack.
Features are an attack or weapon's special perks and other features.
