Okay, so I asked for an official clarification myself. Here's my question:
Hi!
I'd like a clarification on how the sequence of events unfolds with regards to weapons with the Flame quality. Say I'm in a flamer's blast radius. By my understanding of the rules, the sequence is thus:
1. I roll Agility to see if I'm hit by the attack. If I succeed, nothing happens.
2. If I fail that roll, I can attempt to Dodge the attack, provided I have a Reaction left and my Ag bonus is large enough to move me out of the blast radius.
3. If I fail the Dodge roll as well, I take damage and have to roll Ag once again to see if I'm set on fire.
Would that be correct?
And here's an answer Tim gave:
Very close. On #3, you only check for being on fire if you actually take damage.
