Topic: CC Combat Styles and Everyman Skills?

[shnar]

We're looking at using the Combat Styles of the new Combat Companion with RMSS, and some of the cultures/talents grant the weapon skills as Everyman (for example, Orcs get 2H as an Everyman skill). How does this work with the new Combat Style rules?

Same way as it worked before with regular combat skills. They still have to pay the same cost per rank, they just get bonus ranks...

In the example of Orcs, would "Combat Style" be considered an Everyman, or only those combat styles that involved a 2 handed weapon?

I would make it a 2H Weapon Group style (basic group style for 2h weapons) be everyman. Most likely, you could end up with several, based upon what weapons are in the 2H category in RMSS, and what weapon groups they fall into in the Combat Styles.

One of the nice things about the Combat Styles is that the individual weapon skills can be replicated easily, and so can skills for an entire group of weapons.
