Dance around him until he loses all his dice to fatigue.
Ok, and if your pitifull little weapon still can't deal the damage through the high armor and toughness?
Um and how does fatigue work?
One more question that's even more off topic, that free shipping and handeling deal, how long does it not apply to anywhere?like Canada??

BL> Fatigue means you lose dice from your CP as combat wears on, faster in heavy armor. Eventually, you will run out of CP entirely, at which point your opponent guts you.
Also note that power attacks (spending a dice before the attack to get an extra damage point) are VERY useful against armored opponents and are, in my experience, the most overlooked technique in the combat system. They are vital for light weapon users and low strength characters.

We can't give away all the secrets, otherwise why would you need to buy the book? ;-)

Well if that's the only secret left for the combat that i havn't found than im not gonna buy it anyway :P. lol i'm j/k I wan't that book so i know im not screwing my fight's up too bad. Im sure i could just RP game's and use the combat system,but that book...I've gota get it! I've only got crappy print out's that would be good for referance. I should(HOPE!) to have TROS orderd on tuesday.
Thank's for everything so far , and the AWESOME combat system. Is there a martial art's system? If not it should be in that next book your making(or ill make my own :D).

Wait until he's mightily fatigued, then tackle him, knock him to the ground and wrestle his helmet off, then stick said pitiful little weapon in his bloody eye.
Oh, wait.. We're still talking about the combat simulator...
