			===Exalted Effects===
			The Player Characters are phenomenally strong additions to any army. All of them can turn the tide of a battle to whatever army they choose to back. All of them affect the army's effective strength by granting a ''Stat Boost'' to the army during the '''Resolution''' phase. At the base, this can turn a small force into a dangerous threat. Player Characters also each possess a ''Special'' ability, a move they can use at various points in the battle (Usually either just before the die roll or after the resolution), which can either cause or prevent important damage. These have their own limitations. Finally, every Player Character also has a ''Super'' Ability, an overwhelmingly powerful effect which can turn the tide of battle, but at the cost of the Player Character's participation, either due to self-destructive side effects or simply over-exhaustion.<br>

			'''Stat Boost''': Every single PC (almost) grants 500 extra points to their army. This can go from 500 in ATK or DEF, or 250 in both, depending on the character's abilities for battle, and whether they are ''Offensive'', ''Defensive'', or ''Balanced''. This Stat Boost comes into play during resolution. Even effects which may halve DEF take into account the PC's Stat Bonus before taking effect.<br>

			'''Special Ability''': Every Player Character has a Special Ability. Most are relatively unique (though some people share the same ability), and come in two flavors. Active and Passive. Active Special Abilities need to be declared, usually before the roll, with some exceptions, and have a limited number of uses. There is also a cooldown of a turn before an ability may be used again. An ability used on turn 1 can only be used again on turn 3, and so on. Note that Abilities can Stack, allowing more than one player to use them in a single turn and combining advantages. Passive abilities are always active, so long as the PC is still within the army. (See below)<br>

			'''Super Ability''': All Player Characters have a singular, one-shot Super Ability. This ability is generally overwhelming or seemingly unfair, but allows for the PC to cause serious turmoil on the battlefield. This ability can '''generally''' be used at any time during the four phases, with some exceptions. This ability will normally allow for rather impressive damage or a very unique and potent turn of events. However, for various reasons, it will either exhaust, drain, or actually wound the PC, to the point where they need to leave the battlefield, thereby denying their army use of their Special or Stat Bonuses. Only ONE Super may be used in any given turn. These do NOT stack, and whoever types it first gets to use it first.<br>

	Order of Battle~~: Generally unimportant, but flip a coin to see who types first.~~		====Order of Battle====
			The battle has four basic steps, with a few optional ways to modify the outcome.<br>
	~~1- Choose Strategy:~~
	*Charge: Opposed Leadership Roll, Player vs GM. No Bonuses.
	*Flanking: Opposed Leadership Roll. Flanker gets a -3 penalty to their roll due to the difficulty of their movement. If they succeed, the opponent is at half DEF score.
	*Back Attack: Must be set up via RP or other means first. On a successful roll, the army attacking from the back does full damage, without defense. Can be combined with All-Out Attack.
	**Ambush: A variation of the Back Attack, in which an enemy lies in wait and springs a trap on the opponent unawares. The ~~terrain needs to be appropriate. Can NOT be combined with All-Out Attack. Both are subject to an opposed Leadership roll, with the Ambushers at a -2 penalty~~, ~~but must get GM approval beforehand, or be set up~~ with a ~~Special or Super.~~
	*All-Out Attack: Full charge. The army choosing to AAO will get it's DEF added to ~~its ATK for this attack. However, failure means they take~~ the ~~opponent's full damage, without a defense save. (See below)~~
	*Defensive Positions: The army makes a defensive stand. The DEF and ATK are temporarily inverted.

	1.~~5- Optional: Use Special Ability (If Applicable)~~ of PCs ~~involved in the squad~~.		'''First Step: Choose Strategy'''<br>
	*Some Supers will take place here as well. Only one per turn.		From the previous list, pick the strategy your army will adopt. Take into account any modifiers, make note of them, and RP out what the PCs are doing. Detail what your assault consists of, due to some characters having an ability to mitigate or enhance certain types of damage.<br>

	2- ~~Roll~~ Off. Player vs GM, Leadership ~~roll~~. ~~Highest~~ score wins ~~the Skirmish~~.		'''Second Step: Roll-Off'''<br>
			Honestly the simplest part. The Player and GM each roll Leadership. After modifiers, highest score wins. Move to step three.<br>
	*On a roll of 1: The army suffers 200HP damage extra, even if it 'wins' the roll due to a higher modifier. If it loses the roll, it operates at half DEF for the resolution. Called a 'Botch'.		*On a roll of 1: The army suffers 200HP damage extra, even if it 'wins' the roll due to a higher modifier. If it loses the roll, it operates at half DEF for the resolution.

	*On a roll of 10: The army, provided it wins the roll, may reroll immediately. If it wins, it inflicts the damage again. If it loses, it takes no damage and the opponents break away. Called a 'Critical Chance'.		*On a roll of 10: The army, provided it wins the roll, may reroll immediately. If it wins, it inflicts the damage again. If it loses, it takes no damage and the opponents break away. Called a 'Critical Chance'.
	*If one army rolls a 1 and the other army rolls a 10, the Winner inflicts double damage BEFORE the DEF save, including the minimum 200HP damage becoming 400HP. This is called a Critical Botch for the losing army. At The GM's discretion, other problems may strike the losing army.		*If one army rolls a 1 and the other army rolls a 10, the Winner inflicts double damage BEFORE the DEF save, including the minimum 200HP damage becoming 400HP.

	~~2.5- Optional~~: ~~Use Special Ability (if Applicable) of PCs involved in the Squad.~~		'''Third Step: Resolution'''<br>
	*Some Supers will take place here ~~as well~~. ~~Only one per turn~~.		There are two possible outcomes here. A tie, or a win. This is where the PCs' Stat Bonuses come into play. The player should add the PC's relevant Stat Bonuses to either their DEF or their ATK to calculate damage.

	~~3- Resolution~~.
	*In case of a Tie, both armies take 200HP damage, losing 100 to ATK and 100 to DEF.		*In case of a Tie, both armies take 200HP damage, losing 100 to ATK and 100 to DEF.
	*Winner inflicts ATK score, minus the loser's DEF score, +200 HP. (Any successful roll not somehow affected by a Special will cause at least 200 HP damage to the losing army)		*Winner inflicts ATK score, minus the loser's DEF score, +200 HP. (Any successful roll not somehow affected by a Special will cause at least 200 HP damage to the losing army)
	**Example: If an army has 1500 ATK and ~~wins~~ the ~~turn against an army with 1500 DEF, the defending army loses 200 HP but nothing else.~~		Both armies should tally their losses and divide the damage in half from ATK and DEF.<br>
	*Damage total is dropped half/half from ATK and DEF.
	**Example above: The losing Army has 2000 ATK and 1500 DEF (3500HP), loses 200HP. Their total becomes 3300HP, and they are at 1900 ATK and 1400 DEF from the next round onward.

	~~3.5- Optional: Use Special Ability (if Applicable) of PCs involved in the Squad.~~
	*Some Supers will take place here as well. Only one per turn.

	4- Roleplay the army's new position, then ready for the next round, and get ready to start again.		'''Final Step: Roleplay''':<br>

These rules are for use in Destiny's Gate, during Large Scale Combat, of armies against armies. 

=Basic Rules=
Armies will have a number of HP equivalent to their numbers. Example: An army 1000 man strong has 1000HP. 
The Attack to Defense Ratio will be 60/40. This is to allow an army with twice the numbers to be defeatable by a smaller opposing force. 
Example: The previous army (1000 man strong) will be 600 ATK and 400 DEF. 

=======

Order of Battle: Generally unimportant, but flip a coin to see who types first.

1- Choose Strategy:
*Charge: Opposed Leadership Roll, Player vs GM. No Bonuses.
*Flanking: Opposed Leadership Roll. Flanker gets a -3 penalty to their roll due to the difficulty of their movement. If they succeed, the opponent is at half DEF score.

Both are subject to an opposed Leadership roll, with the Ambushers at a -2 penalty, but must get GM approval beforehand, or be set up with a Special or Super.
*All-Out Attack: Full charge. The army choosing to AAO will get it's DEF added to its ATK for this attack. However, failure means they take the opponent's full damage, without a defense save. (See below)
*Defensive Positions: The army makes a defensive stand. The DEF and ATK are temporarily inverted.

1.5- Optional: Use Special Ability (If Applicable) of PCs involved in the squad.
*Some Supers will take place here as well. Only one per turn.

2- Roll Off. Player vs GM, Leadership roll. Highest score wins the Skirmish.

*On a roll of 10: The army, provided it wins the roll, may reroll immediately. If it wins, it inflicts the damage again. If it loses, it takes no damage and the opponents break away. Called a 'Critical Chance'.
*If one army rolls a 1 and the other army rolls a 10, the Winner inflicts double damage BEFORE the DEF save, including the minimum 200HP damage becoming 400HP. This is called a Critical Botch for the losing army. At The GM's discretion, other problems may strike the losing army.

2.5- Optional: Use Special Ability (if Applicable) of PCs involved in the Squad.
*Some Supers will take place here as well. Only one per turn.

3- Resolution.
*In case of a Tie, both armies take 200HP damage, losing 100 to ATK and 100 to DEF.
*Winner inflicts ATK score, minus the loser's DEF score, +200 HP. (Any successful roll not somehow affected by a Special will cause at least 200 HP damage to the losing army)
**Example: If an army has 1500 ATK and wins the turn against an army with 1500 DEF, the defending army loses 200 HP but nothing else.
*Damage total is dropped half/half from ATK and DEF.
**Example above: The losing Army has 2000 ATK and 1500 DEF (3500HP), loses 200HP. Their total becomes 3300HP, and they are at 1900 ATK and 1400 DEF from the next round onward.

3.5- Optional: Use Special Ability (if Applicable) of PCs involved in the Squad.
