{{Combat}}{{TOC box}}

==Initiative==
{{main|Initiative}}
Initiative marks the start of combat by determining the order of actions. To roll Initiative, select the '''Initiative''' button on the [http://nwod.org/forum/index.php?pageid=diceroll Dice roller].
'''Note:''' The nWoD does not require all players to declare actions at the beginning of a turn. The result is a more organic and natural combat process.<ref>[[World of Darkness Sourcebook|WoD]], p.151</ref>

===Ambush===
{{main|Surprise}}

==Attacking==
Your dice pool for attacks is determined by the type of attack. Roll this by listing your dice pool in the '''Action''' field on the dice roller, then selecting the number of dice in the '''Pool''' dropdown:
* [[Unarmed Combat]]: [[Strength]] + [[Brawl Skill|Brawl]]
* Armed Combat: [[Strength]] + [[Weaponry Skill|Weaponry]]
* Firearms: [[Pool::Dexterity]] + [[Pool::Firearms Skill|Firearms]]
* Throwing Objects: [[Pool::Dexterity]] + [[Pool::Athletics Skill|Athletics]]

===Modifiers===
All modifiers should be factored into the dice pool '''except''' for [[Willpower]]. This is automatically added in by checking the '''Use Willpower''' checkbox on the right. Sample modifiers include:
* Aiming: See [[World of Darkness Sourcebook]], 162.
* [[All Out Attack]]
* [[Armor]]
* Charging: See [[World of Darkness Sourcebook]], 164.
* [[Concealment]]

==Damage==
The number of successes on an attack roll equals the number of Health points worth of damage done.

* Recording Damage is done by changing your signature. See [[World of Darkness Sourcebook]], 171-3.

===Incapacitation===
If all your health boxes are filled and the last box is bashing, immediately roll a reflexive Stamina roll to maintain consciousness. See [[World of Darkness Sourcebook]], 173. This comes prior to any supernatural regeneration of wounds or any action taken during your turn. (For werewolves, Death Rage rolls come first though.)

If your last box is filled with lethal damage, you get no Stamina roll to maintain consciousness. You fall unconscious and are bleeding to death. Each minute that passes upgrades 1 lethal to aggravated. If they all go agg, you're dead.

On the flip side, once you heal your rightmost health level, you regain consciousness.
