I may be totally missing the rule but can anyone tell me how complementary
skills work with regard to skills which require open tests?

For Example:
Stealth (Hiding) requires that you make and open test, the highest result is
therefore the difficulty to spot you, if you have "Urban Sniper Concealment"
as a know skill you should be able to use it as a complementary skill if
you're try to hide in a sniping position in an urban enviroment. But a
complementary skill normally allows you to count 1 success for every two
rolled while an open test has no success or failiure (other than the rule of
one.)

Any enlightenment gratefully recieved.
