An Attack Roll is the core mechanic of combat in a D20 game, such as Epic Path. To make an attack roll, you roll a 20-sided die (called a D20), and then add to that number all relevant modifiers (both positive and negative) to generate an attack roll, or a to-hit number. That number is then compared against the Armor Class of the creature you were attacking. If your Attack Roll EQUALS or is GREATER THAN the Armor Class, you successfully hit and may roll | An Attack Roll is the first core mechanic of combat in a D20 game, such as Epic Path.
