== Single Roll Combat System ==
The combat system in Collateral Souls is based off of a single roll utilizing it for accuracy and damage combined. The system functions as follows:
Attack Roll = accuracy + d100 - armor - cover(ranged only) - range penalties(ranged only)
 
Positive values become the percent damage dealt, so an attack roll of 90% and a base damage of 10 will do 9 damage.
Negative numbers have a chance to glance (dealing 1 damage) or miss entirely. The chance to miss is the absolute value of the attack roll. So an attack roll of -25% has a 25% chance to miss and a 75% chance to glance
