Disposition
conflict mechanics
Y Decide Y Y Y Y
Determine participants and teams. State goals. Write them on your sheets. Roll for your starting disposition. Check participants conditions. Modify dispositions accordingly. Choose three actions in private. The GM chooses his actions first. Reveal first action. The GM reveals his action first. Consult the Actions Table to see how your actions interact. Make Action test. Add any modifiers from gear or weapons. Change disposition accordingly. If either disposition is reduced to 0, stop. Reveal and test for Actions 2 and 3. Same rules as above. After Action 3, all teams who still have disposition of 1 or more privately choose three more actions. The process continues until all the teams on the players side or the GMs have been reduced to 0 disposition. Once one side has been reduced to 0 disposition, work out a compromise appropriate to the damage done to the winning teams disposition.
To generate a starting disposition for a conflict, test the listed appropriate skill and add those successes to the rating of the listed ability, subtract any condition penalties from that total. Apply condition penalties to the disposition. If acting in a group, all unique penalties apply to the groups disposition. Check gear (like armor) for disposition bonuses or penalties.

If played against Maneuver, test Feint at Ob 0. Successes are removed from opponents disposition. Independent Obstacle: 0

If you have two or more mice in one team, each player takes turns testing for and describing his actions for the team. Two players alternate back and forth. Three players each get one action out of the set of three. If you have four players on one team, which I recommend against, the fourth player starts the next exchange of actions. Then you go around the table again.
