Check out Rule 4.9 The Attack Priority Table which affects the order
in which attacks happen in the movement & melee phase (IV). <br>
Generally the order of attacks makes no difference UNLESS the slower
combatant gets disabled (knocked out) or killed before their attack
gets resolved.<br>

So...the rules don't really state why there is a weapon
priority or how to apply it. At least, not that I can find.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So...if a character is hit first by a creature, does that
invalidate the character's attack? Does it merely force a
negative modifier </p>
<p>(actually an add)?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Certainly the effect of the earlier attack can affect the
expected return attack if, for instance, the lower priority
weapon user is killed.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>How do you see that happening/working?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>thanks!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I've worked up an excel combat table that rolls and makes the
proper die adjustments for me...and tells me how successful an
attack is...next up, is applying the combat rolls and
damage....hmmm....it will work for large combats too....</p>
