Evasion test
Just downloaded my copy of Basic Impetus 2. The modifiers on the evasion test look like you want to roll a high number to pass, but then the rules say a 1 always fails.
Are you looking to roll over the target number or under? I'm confused.

Re: Evasion test
you modify the die roll, not the target number of the evasion test. in this case, for example. evading from a slower enemy 2+ , you roll an 1 ,with a general in the unit for +1 =2. In theory you would pass, but natural ones always fail.

Re: Evasion test
OK, but are you trying to roll the target number or less, or the target number or higher?
Evading from a slower enemy is +2. Are you successful on a roll of 2? Or 3?
Sorry, I'm still confused. With a cohesion test you want the target number or lower. Not sure here.

Re: Evasion test
You will be trying to roll an equal or greater number. In your example of 2+, that means from 2 to 6.

Re: Evasion test
I believe it was a deliberate choice to avoid people using weighted dice in tournaments to have different numbers equal success. CT = a 1 is good, 6 is failure. Discipline tests & combats want higher rolls like 5 & 6.

Re: Evasion test
it is a kind of discipline test, simplified for BI. Youhave to roll 2+ for CL evading from slower troops. If CL is disordered then it is 3 or more.
