Pg. 92 of MGT2 core book states that once encumbered, you suffer a Bane to 'all physical actions'.
While STR, DEX, END are your physical characteristic values, I have no issues with a Bane being applied to a straight up STR,DEX,END roll.
My question lies with combat actions that employ a physical characteristic, like attacking using the Gun Combat skill.
Does the encumbered Bane get applied to someone shooting with Gun Combat skill?
Options:
YES. It is all physical and any skill check using STR, DEX, END gets a bane.
NO. Physical actions only describe a straight up STR, DEX, END check. Skills using the STR, DEX, END attributes can be compensated in some way to avoid the Bane.
I need to know which of the above is the intended Core Rulebook meaning?
