Skirmish

The Force can move up to a quarter of its Speed (rounded down) before the other effects of this Action take place.

The Force engages an enemy Force present in the same Region in battle. Both Forces suffer 50% less damage than they normally would from the engagement. If the Force is a Fleet, any non-Fleet Forces or non-Ship Military Units currently Embarked on it may act as Reinforcements for this Action. All Forces involved in the battle suffer a -50% Speed penalty until the end of the current Action Phase of the Round.
