 +====== Parting Attack ======
  
 +This is the +4 attack which can be made by a melee combatant against an enemy that breaks off of combat by moving more than 1" in a round (see [[Avoiding]]. For this attack, the enemy counts as [[stun]]ned and has no shield or DEX modifier. Thieves can backstab without checking HIS/MS. Bonuses from a parting attack do not stack with invisibility. Every combatant executing a parting attack on fleeing enemies gets only one attack routine as a parting attack, regardless of how many attack routines they normally get per round.
 +
 +Times when a parting attack is NOT made are:
 +
 +  * [[Flying combat]].
 +  * Movement similar to flying combat, such as if a creature is leaping over the head and past an enemy.
 +  * A [[water weird]] retracts with a victim.

 +This is known as an "attack of opportunity" in later editions.
