== [[Combat rules]] ==

Combat is a major theme of Breaking Worlds and players should be familiar with the following:
* '''[[Combat rules]]''' - The basic rules governing combat, injury, and death.
* '''[[Calls]]''' - The verbal cues used to start and stop the game and to indicate damage and other in-character effects.

The rules support a range of ways to interact with the game world. You can read more on the following pages:
