Accuracy Challenge (Combat DC)
AC = Base 10 + Size Modifier + (Natural Stat) + (Skill)
For ranged combat, the character's Senses Stat is added to their AC unless they are surprised or unaware. Their firearms skill is also added to the AC if they have adopted the "Alert" stance. Other modifiers, such as for range, movement or cover, are applied as edge penalties or bonuses to the hit roll, rather than modifying the AC.
