Alibi
  • Alibi is the lie itself or the explanation of why you are where you are and doing what you are doing. (Not your cover but a small cover for a specific situation). An alibi can be created before hand in case of discovery or questioning and can make lying easier. Alternatively a lie can be said convincingly but not be backed up by a solid alibi. I.e saying you came from specific bar just a few blocks ahead when the person questing you knows that bar was destroyed in the previous nights air raids. You said it convincingly, but the facts simply proved you wrong.

Stealth Killing
  • Stealth Killing was just added. This addition was made to mimic realism. It is possible for an individual to receive multiple stab wounds and live, however it is also possible to have ones throat slit and die with only one blow. The difference is that the second option occurs when one is defenseless and surprised. Stealth assassination represents this and does considerably more damage than its counter part. Its use however is more limited. Stealth assassination could work with a firearm as well at point blank range.
