Butt strikes are an attack option when a weapon is held in Reversed Grip.
They are thrust-crushing attacks which do not benefit from the +1 to thrusting damage that RG normally provides.
It uses 2 rules depending on what the effective range is. The effective range is:
- C for C weapons
- C for front/side attacks with reach 1 weapons
- 1 for rear attacks with reach 1 weapons
- 1 for any attacks with reach 2 weapons.
Effective-C uses Pummeling rules.
Effective-1 uses special rules: full damage for crushing weapons, thrust minus 1 for non-crushing.
