Strength Attribute

Strength measures your character's muscle and physical power. This ability is especially important for soldiers because it helps them prevail in physical combat.

You apply your character's Strength modifier to:

• Melee attack rolls
• Damage rolls for melee and thrown weapons (Exceptions: Grenade damage isn't modified by Strength.)
• Climb, Jump, and Swim checks, and other skill checks using Strength as the key ability.
• Strength checks (for breaking down doors and the like)
