=== Example Attack Calculation ===
=== Example Attack Calculation ===
The creature being attacked is a snapjaw warlord with 2 AV and 9 DV. Our attacker is a salamander with 14 (-1) strength, 18 (+1) agility and its bite, a 1d3 axe with no strength cap and no base penetration, as its only weapon; this bite, due to the strength modifier of the salamander, has a PV of -1. The salamander rolls a 15 for its bite’s hit roll, and the hit roll gets a +1 bonus from the salamander’s agility modifier; 16 is higher than the snapjaw’s 9 DV, so the attack hits.
