I haven’t seen the rules for this, so I have a question. What do you roll for combat resolutions etc. A modified d6 or modified 2d6?
Thanks!
Modified d6.
You can find the rules here:

Quick answer is, determine final Firepower of attack, reference column on CRT and roll 2D6 with any modifiers.
I don’t have the link handy, but Marco Arnaudo did a long and gushing video review a couple weeks back, where he demonstrates the tactical workings very well.
