Fear tests are Challenge tests using the model’s Ki Statistic. Any effects that affect Ki Challenge Tests also affect Fear Tests.

Models with the Fear trait, automatically pass Fear tests with a Challenge Number equal to or lower than their Fear trait.
They still take a Fear test if the Challenge Number is higher than their Fear trait.

Resolve a Fear Test when:

  1. An Activating Model declares an action or effect that would bring it into BtB with an Enemy model with the Fear trait.
    • If the Activating Model fails the Fear test, regardless of the action declared, remove one Activation Counter, and its activation ends.
    • It does not enter the Frightened State.
  2. An Activating Model with the Fear trait declares an action that would bring it into BtB with an Enemy model.
    • If the Enemy model fails its Fear test, it enters the Frightened State.
