The Open Mass Combat System is provided as a means for the gaming group to handle large arge scal scalee com combats ats durin ring the game, ame, allowing PCs to lead troops and fight grand battles. This system will also allow the group to handle Ship-To-Ship fighting between the crews crews of large large saili sailing ng vessel vesselss on the High High Seas. In essence, the system treats units (of like like memb member ers) s) as bein being g very very simi simila larr to char charac acte ters rs - the the grou group p as a whol wholee has has a statistics block and fights as a single entity.

Comb Combat at work workss very very much much like like stan standa dard rd D&D3E combat, except that the map is on a larger larger scale scale and the men are more more tightly tightly packed that the usual "one man per 5' square" rule (due to the confusion and close quarters of comb combat at). ). All All movem movemen entt rule rules, s, such such as running, charging, double moves etc apply to each unit. To enter combat with another unit on land, land, a unit unit must must charg chargee howeve however, r, they cannot cannot simply simply walk walk up to anothe anotherr unit unit and start fighting (the charge grants the usual +2 to attack and -2 to AC for one round and allows only as single attack). To enter combat with another unit in ship-to-ship combat, the attacking ship must make a boarding action against the target vessel before combat can be engaged. Once engaged, the only options are to Attack Attack (Allows (Allows as many attacks per round as the unit is entitled to), or to attempt to Withdraw. Defenders in a boarding action in Ship-to-S Ship-to-Ship hip combat may not Withdraw Withdraw,, as there is no place to retreat. If a unit Withdra Withdraws, ws, the opposing opposing unit gets a single single free attack on them. This is the only time atta attack ckss of oppo opport rtun unit ity y are are used used in unit unit combat.

Units attack as a single entity, making a single attack roll against the opposing unit's AC. If the the hit hit is succ succes essf sful ul,, stan standa dard rd damag damagee is rolled, and applied directly to the opposing units Unit Hit Points. This simulates many men striking and possibly killing many men at once. A unit reduced to 0 unit hit points is considered beaten, either killed off or forced to scatter and flee, either way it's out of the combat, but not necessarily slaughtered to a man, see the rules for determining surviving numbers.

Unit Hit Points do not track actual deaths in a unit. They are more a measure of its ability to keep fighting through individual death, injury and surrender.
