I was reading through SRII and I was a bit confused about melee
combat. Perhaps you all can shed some light on the situation.
The way that I read it was that intitiative really won't make
any difference to a melee combat between two opponants. Let
me give you an example:
Samurai 1 rolls a 30 on his initiative. Samurai 2 rolls a 12.
Samurai 1 goes before Samurai 2 on 30. If Samuria 1 puts his
dice mostly into defense resistance and Samurai 2 puts his
dice in combat attack, and Samurai 2 gets more successes than
Samurai 1, Samurai 2 hits and does damage.
On 20 Samurai 1 goes again. Theoreticly, the same thing could
happen again. On initiative 12, Samuria 2 goes and shoots
Samuria 1.
The way it is written, both parties get combat actions each time
either of them goes. I know this cannot be correct. It does
not make sense. The guy with the higher initiative should
cream the slow guy. Help me out.
Thanks,
Debbie
