YOU don't even need to roll.  Past plus Motivation plus Planet (clever lad, you) plus SpOp forte plus Hitting Stuff is +10.  Even if I rule out one or two Fortes, you still have +8 and you cannae roll a 1 on d26.  And that's without including any of your techniques...<br/><br/>Ergo the Brian Blessed type may cakewalk to Goshawk as he pleases.<br/><br/>Battle Briefs, however, do NOT contribute to attack rolls.  They're armor (they contribute to defensive totals in duels and absorb damage ranks).
