Combat Maneuvers

Combat Maneuvers are special attacks that have an effect, add or change damage. A Character may only learn as many maneuvers as they have in Combat ratings. Each Maneuver is bought at 8 exp times rank, 8 exp for the first rank. Each Maneuver can be used in a single combat up to a maximum of its ranks. Maneuvers can be used against each other, in such a case, the one with a higher rank wins. If the numbers are tied, then neither Maneuver succeeds, but the number of uses does not decrease.
