Action Chart
Beyond the Nightmare Gate
by Joe Dever and Ian Page
Combat Rules Summary
  1. Calculate your
    COMBAT SKILL
    based on the weapon that you are using.
  2. Subtract the
    COMBAT SKILL
    of your enemy from this total. This number = Combat Ratio.
  3. If using your Wizard's Staff, note the number of
    WILLPOWER
    points you wish to expend.
  4. Pick a number from the
    Random Number Table
    .
  5. Turn to the
    Combat Results Table
    .
  6. Find your Combat Ratio on the top of the chart and cross-reference to the random number you have picked. (E indicates loss of
    ENDURANCE
    points to Enemy. GS indicates loss of
    ENDURANCE
    points to Grey Star.)
  7. Multiply the enemy's lost
    ENDURANCE
    points by the number of
    WILLPOWER
    points used.
  8. Continue the combat from Stage 3 until one character is dead. This is when
    ENDURANCE
    points of either character fall to 0 or below.
To Evade Combat
  1. You may only evade combat when the text of the adventure offers you the opportunity.
  2. You undertake one round of combat in the usual way. All points lost by the enemy are ignored, only Grey Star loses
    ENDURANCE
    points.
  3. If the book offers the chance of taking evasive action in place of combat, it can be taken in the first round of combat or any subsequent round.
