Definition

The Cbt-Tactical skill encompasses practice, instruction and understanding of tactical level combat, including the operation of weapons at the field or base{i} scale and tactical or base{ii} scale and higher.

Assess (free-action, aspect-on, Investigate)

You can quickly assess whether a potential opponent has this kind of practice as well as a free action by making the check:

assess(free-action) chk(10) = d20 + R(Cbt-Tactical) + M(Investigate)

Note that this does not tell you anything about their abilities, just whether or not they are practiced (have ranks on this forte).

Know (free-action, aspect-on, Investigate)

You can check whether you know basic features about a particular tactical weapon with:

know(free-action) chk(10+rarity) = d20 + R(Cbt-Tactical) + M(Investigate)

The C can be adjusted up for rare weapons or subject to a tech provenance aspect, if the weapon is particular to a culture.

Feint (bonus-action, aspect-on:Deceive, 1fp)

Just before you make your attack, you can use your bonus action to impose

feint(bonus-action, 1fp) imp(sv,Insight) = 8+R(Cbt-Tactical) + M(Deceive) + Vcl-Space

If your opponent fails this save, you may make your following attack with advantage.
