&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Combat numbers&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are a mechanic used in some [[theatre-style]] larps for [[simulated combat]]. Each character is given a number which represents their skill in combat. The rules can be deterministic - a higher number always beats a lower one - or allow some scope for chance e.g. if the numbers differ by less than twenty then [[paper-scissors-rock]] or a [[card draw]] is used. Numbers can be open (e.g. printed on the character&amp;#039;s [[nametag]]), or secret; fixed, or modifiable in-play with items.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Example games==&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Monsieur Beauregard’s Hollywood Speakeasy]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[The Rose and the Dragon]] used a combat number system for players who did not with to use [[live-combat]].&lt;br /&gt;
