-**There are currently only two combat calls in the game. The intention is to keep things that way for as long as possible. Players researching new skills should keep in mind that introducing new calls is something the game team is very keen to avoid.**\\
+**As of August 2026 we are adding a third combat call to the game, for use in very specific NPC scenarios (players are of course free to use and abuse the call however they see fit). Players researching new skills should keep in mind that introducing new calls is something the game team is very keen to avoid.**\\

 **This call can only be used on someone reduced to 0 health in ranged combat or 0 hits in melee combat. Anyone using this call must be within 2 or 3 metres of their target. They should fire a single round from their firearm towards the target and then make the call Point Blank. The target is then unconscious and should start a 300 second death count. If they reach 0 they have died. The target cannot use First Aid on themselves and must be healed by someone else.**\\

+**As with Point Blank, this call can only be used on someone reduced to 0 health in ranged combat or 0 hits in melee combat. Anyone using this call must be less than a metre away from their target. They should mime some kind of action that would render someone unconscious without making physical contact. The target is rendered unconscious but does not start their death count. They can be awoken by awoken with a few seconds of suitable roleplay at which point they can heal themselves, assuming no-one else did already. On the same principle as the rules [[rules:healing|here]] if no-one finds the unconscious character then they will eventually bleed to death at the referee's discretion. In general terms if someone is actively looking for the character they will not die, they will bleed to death at the point everyone stops looking or there's no-one left to look.**
