Bash Skill
The successfulness of your bash depends upon how well you are learned in the
skill. To bash someone is to attempt to 'knock' that person over. If you
succeed you will inflict minor damage, and cause the victim to fall on its
rear. The victim will be unable to issue any commands for 2 rounds of
violence. If you miss you loose your balance and fall. A bash makes you unable
to type commands for 2 rounds of violence. If your opponent is already down
and you attempt a bash, there's a pretty good chance you'll trip over them :)
Usage:
bash <victim>
Example:
bash <?= %randPlayer() ?>

Combat Skill
This skill is a measure of how good your basic combat skills are.
The higher your combat skill, the better your chance to hit your opponent
in hand-to-hand combat. Note that although your combat skill plays a
part in determining your chance to hit, your specific weapon skill (such
as slash/bludgeon/pierce), and to some extent your level, also affect
your chance.
This skill is based on STRENGTH, since strength is the main factor
in how well you are able to break through your opponent's defenses,
or deflect his blows, or how long you are able to continue fighting
before becoming too worn to fight effectively. This skill also leads
to many warrior-type skills.
