Guile
Revision as of 16:24, 15 July 2020 by Grichenko (talk | contribs) (→Bind - Hog-tie your helpless target.)
Rules and guidelines were meant to be broken, especially in a fight. Scoundrels are trained to make use of every dirty trick in their books to make sure that they're the only one left standing at the end of the battle.
The Guile skill breaks down into four groups: Reloading; Brawling; Underbelly tricks; and Surveillance.
Reloading
Kneecap - Smash them in the knee and reload your pistol.
