Атака же — частный случай проверки. И в правилах по атаке не написано что можно заявлять атаку тогда, когда «it doesn't fit the scene». Следовательно, общее правило по fits the scene остается в силе.

ORDER OF RULES APPLICATION

The D&D game assumes a specific order of rules application: General to specific to exception. A general rule is a basic guideline, but a more specifi c rule takes precedence when applied to the same activity. For instance, a monster description is more specifi c than any general rule about monsters, so the description takes precedence. An exception is a particular kind of specific rule that contradicts or breaks another rule (general or specific). The Improved Disarm feat, for instance, provides an exception to the rule that an attacker provokes an attack of opportunity from the defender he’s trying to disarm (see Disarm, page 45).
