Skill: Stealth

Stealth
Stealth is a Skill Statistic associated with Training. It represents an actor's ability avoid detection.

Sneaking Outside Combat
Outside of combat situations, actors can use stealth attempts to bypass guard patrols, enter buildings undetected and avoid the bounty hunters that are looking for them. A successful stealth attempt can also be used to set up an ambush.
 * C0 avoiding the notice of routine security.
 * C1 sneaking by guards who are alerted that something's happening.
 * C2 entering high security government facilities.

Ambush
Actors can set up an ambush at a location with a successful stealth attempt. An ambush can be maintained for up to an hour. If combat starts in the area, ambushers get +1L on their first attack attempt on their first turn. For example, the party could spend a turn ambushing a door before leaping through it, hopefully getting bonuses against the guards on the other side.

Setting up Mid Combat Ambushes
An actor who is unseen or has cover, and who is not in CQC, can spend an attack action to make a stealth attempt. Success grants them +1L on their next attack attempt next turn.
