Attack Command¶

Roll attacks and damage with weapons.

Usage¶

!attack [<character_name>] [<weapon_name>] [2H] [adv] [dis] [backstab] [demonic] [assassin] [verb] [+<modifier>] ["<label>"]

Description¶

The attack command allows you to: - View all available weapon attacks for your character (when no weapon is specified) - Specify which character to use (if you have multiple characters) - Roll attacks with specific weapons - Apply various modifiers and conditions - Add custom labels to describe the attack

Options¶

[<character_name>] - Name of the character to use (optional, falls back to selected character)
[<weapon_name>] - Name of the weapon to attack with (optional, if omitted shows all weapons)
2H - Use two-handed weapon damage
adv - Roll with advantage
dis - Roll with disadvantage
backstab - Apply backstab bonus
demonic - Apply demonic bonus
assassin - Apply assassin bonus
verb - Show detailed modifier breakdown
+<modifier> - Add a custom modifier to the attack roll (e.g., +1d6, +2)
"<label>" - Add a custom label to describe the attack (e.g., "sneak attack", "power attack")

Examples¶

View all weapons:

!attack

Attack with a specific weapon:

!attack longsword

Attack with specific character:

!attack "Wizard Bob" staff
!attack "Fighter Alice" longsword 2H
!attack Bob dagger backstab

Attack with modifiers:

!attack longsword 2H adv
!attack dagger backstab
!attack longsword +1d6
!attack dagger +2 adv

Attack with custom labels:

!attack longsword "power attack"
!attack dagger "sneak attack"
!attack shortsword +1d4 "blessed strike"

Character Resolution¶

When you specify a character name as the first argument: - Exact or partial match: If the name matches one of your characters, that character will be used - No match: If the name doesn't match any of your characters, the command falls back to your selected character and treats the name as a weapon name - Multiple characters: This is especially useful when you have multiple characters in the same initiative and want to specify which one to use

Examples: - !attack "Wizard Bob" staff - Uses Wizard Bob to attack with staff - !attack Bob longsword - Uses character with name starting with "Bob" to attack with longsword - !attack shortsword adv - If no character named "shortsword", uses selected character to attack with shortsword with advantage

Combat Awareness¶

When your character is in an active initiative order, this command automatically uses any modified stats applied through the !stats command or other effects.

For example: - If your STR has been enhanced from 14 to 16 while in initiative, attack rolls with STR-based weapons will use the enhanced value - If your DEX has been modified, attack rolls with DEX-based weapons will use the modified value - Damage calculations will also use the enhanced stat modifiers

Outside initiative: Uses your character's base stats as normal. In initiative: Automatically uses any temporarily modified stats.

See the Stats Command documentation for information on modifying stats during combat.
