Page 437: After determining a winner and loser, consult the Positioning table to determine the effects for this upcoming exchange.
Is this referring to the Positioning Advantage table or the “vs. Opponent’s disadvantage” table?
Should the Positioning Advantage table instead say “Your Weapon” on the side instead of “This weapon has advantage”?
Both fighters are rolling using that table, right? Even the fighter at disadvantage is going to get +0-2D advantage dice for comparing their weapon vs. their opponents when positioning.
So if you’re at disadvantage and are vying for position, you don’t use the table at all, you just roll Speed + advantage from stride? Only the player with advantage gets bonus dice from this table?
Maybe I’m not actually answering your question, I do that sometime. Note that two different things are happening with position. He who has advantage during the exchange will be forcing his opponent into an Ob increase for his actions during the exchange ( with the exceptions noted at the bottom of p.431. That Ob disadvantage is found from the table on 431.
At the beginning of each exchange the person with advantage will also get a bonus to his Vie for Position test that hes about to make, and that advantage is found from the table on 436.
