In order to benefit from a sustained defense in Confrontation, one can refrain from using the dorsal blades in combat. This choice must be announced before the Initiative Roll that precedes the resolution of a Hand-to-Hand Combat. By default, a fighter always uses them.

The combat dice given by the blades can only be placed in attack. They can be used even if the fighter failed a Disengagement test or has counter-fired. They are influenced by game effects that modify the results of the wearer's combat dice (Wound or charging penalties, Mutagenic Points in ATT, etc.) or the way they are rolled (War Fury in ''Rag'Narok'' for example). However, their number cannot be modified (such as by "Armor of Allmoon").

If the fighter equipped with dorsal blades makes a master strike, then the additional attacks are lost. In this case the greater Strength between that of the blades and that of their wearer is used to determine that of the master strike.
