 The attacker makes an attack roll. The defender makes a defense roll. These are compared. If the attack roll (with modifiers) is greater than the defense roll, it hits. If not, it misses. The attack and defense rolls are modified by a random number (which is added) and a fatigue penalty (which is subtracted). The attacker makes an attack roll. The defender makes a defense roll.

 Once a hit is scored, a similar calculation is done to determine how much [[damage]] is done. This involves the attacker's damage roll minus the defender's protection roll. Once a hit is scored, a similar calculation is done to determine how much [[damage]] is done.

-===== Critical Hits ===== 
  
-Units that suffer from heavy [[fatigue]] can be critically hit. Every time an attack hits a [[DRN]] roll is made to check whether the attack was a critical hit. If succesful the target's Protection is decreased by 25% multiplicatively. So a unit hit with an [[armor piercing]] critical hit will have an effective (0.5 * 0,75 = ) 37,5% Protection. +===== Attack modifiers =====

Due to the complexity of the game it will be difficult to list all of them, but here are some of the more common ones. Both attack and defense can be affected both positively and negatively by various effects.
