hmm, a combo so I'll use the 2 dude from before

Maneuvers still have a base speed factor of 8 before any adjustments.

Example: Dave has a 4 dex and 4 wits(Base initiative: 8) vs. Ron has 4 dex
and a 3 wits(Base initiative: 7). Each roll iniative 1d10 + thier base. Dave
gets a 7 + his base (8) is a total of 15. And Ron gets a 1 + his base (7) is
a total of 8.

Dave decides to use a combo of Jab to Jab to Short, 1st Jab at 15(jab has +2
speed so its a 6 initiative), 2nd Jab at 9(jab has +4 speed{+2 from
maneuver, & +2 from combo} so its a 4 initiative), and then Short Kick at
5(short has +3 speed{+1 from maneuver, & +2 from combo} so its a 5
initiative).
Speed Adjusted Act At
Factor due to combo
Jab 6 15
Jab 6 -> 4 9
Short 7 -> 5 5

3 maneuver combo, but once the combo parts 1 n 2 are done, Ron would act if
he wasnt dizzy. Ron coulnt get more than 1 action off though.

After the First Hit, Ron tries to Combo-Break Dave By either Dizzying him,
or causing a knockdown. Ron decides between using either Elbow Smash (Speed
Factor 6) or Suplex (Speed Factor 8). By speed, it would be smarter to use
Elbow smash it will act before Dave's Short Kick. But if he used supex, it
causes a knock down which will break the combo.

so combat would look like this

Dave Jabs, Dave jabs again, Ron suplexs Dave, Dave still had an action left
but no time to use it so he uses Kippip to stand.

Next round.

Okay, howzabout something like this:

Dexterity # of Actions per turn
1 - 2 1
3 - 4 2
5 - 6 3
7 - 8 4

Of course, adding this to the system would also
probably mean adding an "Actions Cost" to each
maneuver... Most basic maneuvers using only 1 or 2
actions, while more complicated maneuvers using more.
Combos, of course, would take on a whole new
dimension. But this system might work...right now
it's just a theory.

Basic Cyborg rules off the top o my head:
1. They can use their background in cy to buy any focus move.
example, if you have 3 in cybernetics and none in focus you can pick
up fireball. I think they have to pay most expensive price though.

2. they can use their physical attributes for focus moves if they
wish, substituting dex for wits when determining the speed of the
above fireball, and substitute strength for intelligence when
determining damage.

3. they can spend health levels for chi if they choose (usually after
they run out of chi[read batteries].)

4. they have a penalty to honor and an extra dot in something, can
anyone else remember? Im lazy and dont feel like getting my book but
i will if no one replies.

This sounds interesting but be sure to give moves a higher base speed
than eight.

that way if two opponents with eight dex square off the one with
musicall accompaniment doing a block to something combo will still
have a higher speed.

need to figure out how fast something could POSSIBLY be and subtract
from that.

Like dex 8 plus3 for a tiger knee + 4 for a block to tiger knee combo
would be 15 to take from. maybe more..

find the ultimate fastest possible action and subtract from that,
jack up base actions from 15 if needed.

the action cost should somehow be based on the speed of the move..

any ideas?

Sorry for the trouble,
This is my first java project and ive had the same prob too.

One way around it ive found is to use internet explorer, then right

this shows you a text file with the ugly, script-written code. Just
save the text file as "yourcharactersname.html", then open the newly

do you think this move is balanced:

One of my walk-the-fine-line-between-honor-and-lack-therof players
wanted his character to have a move where his Akuma worshipping, 5
appearance havin', big-titted female shotokan stylist (complete with
Akuma's "ten" symbol on the gi, no gi-pants though) kicks her
opponent in the groin.(rolls eyes)

I let him buy it for two power points and gave it the same stats as a
footsweep. (using the rationale that it was just another way to
bring an opponent to the ground, just instead of tripping them they
fall in pain) The ONLY difference is that ANYTIME he does it he gets
minus 1 temporary honor (vs guys or girls), and if he is doing it
against a male, and that male chooses not to block it, he is
considered to be at half stamina rounded down. (if the guy blocks it
is done @ normal stamina, and if anyone blocks they dont get knocked
down [like footsweep])

I figured the honor cost would balance out the stamina thing, because
if he over-uses it he will soon find himself an honerless npc villian.
plus, the guy can always block right?

When a character is at zero temporary honor and does something to
lose a point of temp. honor, is one of his permanent honor
immediately exchanged for 10 temporary ones or do you have to do
something special to make that exchange??

I know you have to do something special to trade 10 temp for a perm,
just wondereing about vice versa.

If its in the book i missed it.

The best speed possible is 1. Nothing can be adjusted better.

Example: Bartlbee has a 8 Dex and an 8 wits. He rolls his initiative
and gets a 10 total result 26. He is gonna use his Block to Elbow
Smash to Tiger Knee dizzy Combo. He starts by blocking (+4 speed so
it becomes a 4 Speed Factor{SF from now on}), this leaves him to act
again at 22 he decides to Elbow smash (+2 from maneuevr +2 from block
+2 from combo thats a SF: 2) he can act again at 20, then he finishes
the combo Tiger Knee(+2 from maneuevr +2 from combo thats a SF: 4)
this will probally dizzy most opponents, cause they wont be able to
beat his speed. He still has actions for 16 and lower, if he is a
dick, he does the combo again entirely, this brings him down to 6, if
truley violent he could Tiger Knee again or Elbow Smash

if he had musical accompaniment, it would give him and additional +1
speed total not for each maneuver. An alternitive is it adjust the
characters Initiative.

I decided to take out the Dex + Wits x2 +1d10.
It should be just Dex + Wits + 1d10

any maneuevr that adjusts Speed would now adjust the chatacres
initiative; ie:

Musical Accopaniment
Speed of the Mongoose

In my games:
Drunken Accompaniment
Ganji Dance
Mind and Body
is what I think called it and it works like Light Feet but for speed
not initiative(+1 to all maneuver speeds, +4 to all maneuver speeds
when 1 chi is spent.)

Yeah, sure, why shouldn't it be balanced? Anyhoo, I've got the Nutcracker
(ouch!) on my web-site (http://www.pvv.org/~leirbakk/rpg_e.html), which is
what Pankrationists and other Professional Bad Guys sometimes use.
Interestingly, the only NPC I've ever created with that particular
maneuver was a chick - and a very pretty one at that ;-)

Personally, I don't immediately hit them with exchanging one permanent
Honor to get 10 temporary when they hit negative temp - the same way I
don't immediately allow them to exchange 10 temp Glory to 1 perm Glory
when they hit 10 temp Glory.

If they deserve to lose that Honor, they'll show complete disregard for
having a low Honor, and continue to do stuff that'll still cost them
Honor. I usually let this go on for 2 or 3 temp Honor, and THEN I tell
them to exchange 1 perm Honor for 10 temp, and then I subtract their
"negative" temp Honor from 10 to give them current temp Honor.

If they at least tries to do the Right Thing (tm), if they try to be
heroes - then I let them recover without losing that perm Honor.

Although, in my campaign (IMC? ;-) it might pay off in the short run to
fight dirty (you get modifiers sooner when you're trying to kill someone),
the high-powered honorable fighters have incredible energy in tourneys and
so on (rolling perm Honor to recover chi/willpower tends to do that), and
therefore have more staying power.

My players are slowly catching on to this. Although I've spelled it out
for them on more than one occasion.

I'd have to say 'dumbass character concept' (I'll be entering that in the poll
when I get around to it). Please forward my opinion to the player in quesiton.

On a side note, having been kicked in the crotch and having kicked guys and
girls in the crotch (I went to an equal oportunity school), I find that the
girls tend to go down just as fast as the guys.

But if you want to keep the male vulnerability and the honor loss, then yeah
I'd say the move balanced as is.

Wasn't there something about having the Cyborg background lets you get
natural body weaponry or something?

Tony

While watching the Street Fighter Alpha anime (which was pretty much
nothing but Ryu vs the Evil Ryu side), I was contemplating how to
represent the evil Chi side of things.

I think the P'o nature and Demon Chi effect from Kindred of the East
would represent this perfectly, being something you could take as a
character flaw. Whenever the character uses his Demon Chi, he would make
a resisted roll of his Honor vs the P'o, and the P'o (demon nature) takes
over should it win. (The character becomes evil until honor wins out.
Honor is lost for evil actions taken under the influence.)

Spending Demon Chi counts toward temporary honor loss (-1). A character's
P'o/Demon Chi (always equal) remains equal to his permanent Chi rating.

If I recall correctly, a point of Demon Chi can be used for extra
speed/extra actions (would translate to +2 speed for Street Fighter), and
I'd allow it to substitute for regular Chi for SF moves. This should make
the temptation to use it higher.
This flaw may be worth -3 to -5.

Comments?

How, though, is this any different from Bison's Psycho Power? They're both
Chi used for evil, and Ler Drit is less costly.

Cyborgs have the option of emulating Animal Hybrid
Basic maneuvers with their cybernetics, (Bite, Claw,
etc...). THey could also have cybernetic tails,
wings, and so forth, but each "feature" took away one
option from the rest of the body. For example, a
fighter with Cybernetics 5 could have both arms, both
legs and torso all cybernetic, or they could have a
cyber-torso, legs and an additional pair of arms in
addition to their real ones, or a cybernetic tail in
place of one of their limbs, or ...

Cyborgs in the hands of inventive players can get
funky really quick. Whenever I've used them in my
campaign, they've been either:

* The crippled fighter out looking for revenge on the
one who crippled them (usually topped out at Cyber-3)

* The renegade (or not-so-renegade) Shadowlaw
experiment fleeing from it's dark masters (or doing
their bidding, if a villain).

*Or a team of cybernetically enhanced dinosaur hybrids
created by Shadowlaw to terrorize the circuit.

There are many more options.

Cyborgs DO start off with a -2 Permanent Honor, which
can be removed with the starting 3 Glory and Honor
points. They DO NOT get the extra 2 dice from the
negative points...

"Officially", Cyborgs can use Physical or Mental
attributes to power Cybernetic Focus maneuvers, by
spending either Chi or Health. My house rule:
Cyber-Focus maneuvers always use Physical and Health.
Regular Focus moves use Mental and Chi.

Well, there's using power for evil and then there's shadow nature. The
whole P'o, demon chi idea is basically that there's a spirit of evil
within the person waiting to awaken and take over. Perhaps the whole
demon chi should be added to Ler Dritt users to represent the evil nature
of Psycho Power.
Still, Ler Dritt users wouldn't want to be taken over by the demon. Ride
the demon, don't let it ride you.

Kindred of the East details several type of demon/shadow natures that the
character must roleplay (or have actions dictated by the storyteller) if
taken over by the demon. They are all negative, can even be negative for
villains (depending on which shadow nature they have). A shadow nature
should always be assigned by the storyteller.
Various shadow natures for street fighter might be:

Ego, Proving oneself to be the strongest fighter at the expense of all
else (martial prowess more important than anything)

Greed/Opportunity, Making onself powerful at the expense of all else
(money, fame, minions, power over others)

Murder, the joy of betrayal, killing, suffering is the character's goal

Servitude, serving those more powerful than oneself, especially those who
are ruthless/powerful or ruled by shadow nature

Fear, the character wants to survive and will always take the easy way
out.

The character must also make a roll to resist succumbing to the demon
whenever a great opportunity to fulfill shadow nature appears.

Looking through the KotEast book, Demon Chi can also be used for extra
successes on damage. For Street Fighter, spending Demon Chi should be
limited to 1 per turn/round.

Subject: [streetfighter] LOW BLOW ADVICE?

do you think this move is balanced:

One of my walk-the-fine-line-between-honor-and-lack-therof players
wanted his character to have a move where his Akuma worshipping, 5
appearance havin', big-titted female shotokan stylist (complete with
Akuma's "ten" symbol on the gi, no gi-pants though) kicks her
opponent in the groin.(rolls eyes)

I let him buy it for two power points and gave it the same stats as a
footsweep.  (using the rationale that it was just another way to
bring an opponent to the ground, just instead of tripping them they
fall in pain) The ONLY difference is that ANYTIME he does it he gets
minus 1 temporary honor (vs guys or girls), and if he is doing it
against a male, and that male chooses not to block it, he is
considered to be at half stamina rounded down. (if the guy blocks it
is done @ normal stamina, and if anyone blocks they dont get knocked
down [like footsweep])

I figured the honor cost would balance out the stamina thing, because
if he over-uses it he will soon find himself an honerless npc villian.
plus, the guy can always block right?


Do you think this move is balanced?

lol,
He just plays her because he's also an artist, so he plays hot chicks
so he has an excuse to draw them.

Thanks for the input.

And nice to hear from you Chris. I just got back in the SF:RPG scene.

Yeah,

they begin with a -2 score in honor, that can be bought off with the renow
points, and they have 1 extra dot to put in physical or mental attributes,
but a fewer dot to put in social attributes; they also begin with 12 Health
Levels instead of 10, and have some automatic dots in some abilities, but I
can�t remember which ones. They can buy superhuman physical or mental traits
at normal cost ( 4x Actual Level ), but pay more to improve social ( again,
can�t remember the correct rule ).

Hope that helps.

Basic Cyborg rules off the top o my head:
1. They can use their background in cy to buy any focus move.
example, if you have 3 in cybernetics and none in focus you can pick
up fireball. I think they have to pay most expensive price though.

2. they can use their physical attributes for focus moves if they
wish, substituting dex for wits when determining the speed of the
above fireball, and substitute strength for intelligence when
determining damage.

3. they can spend health levels for chi if they choose (usually after
they run out of chi[read batteries].)

4. they have a penalty to honor and an extra dot in something, can
anyone else remember? Im lazy and dont feel like getting my book but
i will if no one replies.

Hehehehe! I love it. And the way you coded it makes it very easy to add
maneuvers to.

'bout the only thing I might suggest is putting the maneuvers in three columns,
so that you don't have to scroll as much, and maybe adding a drop down menu for
entering your rating as an elemental when you get around to the Players Guide
stuff.

I give it four out of five stars. ****

Why isn't this running on your web site?

this sounds like my players. I recently discovered I can pretty much
predict the types of characters they'll play whenever they make a new one.

Lisa: Shotokan Karate/Boxing, punch emphasis with a little focus thrown in
for the wow factor. 4 in all physicals.

Gerald: Fire elemental with punches and flaming fist or Capoeria Cartwheel
Kicker. Stam 5, Dex 5, Wits 5, others padded out as needed. Also has a
thing for Lightning Leg even though it's impossible to start with. Doesn't
mean he hasn't tried to slip it past me, though.

Fog: Whatever the other players help him construct based on the concept he
wants. Numbers were never his strong point. Usually plays oddball
characters who happen to have fighting skills by coincidence. Has played in
the past a hippy with no physical abilities (Telepathy, Zen No Mind, etc),
an artist who had been drafted and so could grapple (deadly Combat Sambo
concept with Flying Tackle/Suplex combos compliments of Yours Truly) and a
stuntman-turned-cab-driver who had once practiced Muay Thai. Oh yea, and a
Dex 7 flying squirrel hybrid who tended to frenzy on small children and
unconscious opponents.

Cory: Shotokan fire elementalist, soldier/military concept. once had a
flash of brilliance and played a Tai Kwon Leep stylist with no arms.

Version 2 Im working on now has dropdowns for cyborgs and animal
hybrids (elementals only use there rating as a prerequisite right?)

also included will be a text box for combos and animal hybrid basic
moves.

It'll take a while cause phb added so damn many focus moves and now i
have to do 3 times the work in focus moves cause you can buy them
three ways
1) normal
2) cyborg rating using mental stats
3) cyborg rating using physical stats
pain in the ass!!!

Cause the page is such a big file it usually gives up loading it and
sends you to the geocities "not found" page.
runs better from your hard drive.
when i learn more about scripts ill have the page and the script
seperated so itll load fast.

I can't seem to print combat charts from this program. It only prints

Is there a way around this / broswer you know that can print the

it makes?

------reply for all-----------
Sorry for the trouble,
This is my first java project and ive had the same prob too.

One way around it ive found is to use internet explorer, then right
click the combat chart and hit view source.

this shows you a text file with the ugly, script-written code.  Just
save the text file as "yourcharactersname.html", then open the newly
saved generated combat chart.(should print then)

seems like a lot of work but if your like me you'll want to keep saved
copies of all your guys most current sheet anyway.

My _guess_ (emphesis on the guess part) is that it's because the chart page
doesn't really exist. You're not sending variable to a file that's in the
browser, you're sending the variables to the browser itself. There is no file
to print because everything is just in memory.

My fix (assuing I'm right) would be to create a second file (which we'll call
chart.html) by cutting and pasting most of the newWindow() function into the
second window and setting it up to read the variables in the opener window's
form. The path for that is window.opener.document.chargen.strength.value, I
believe.

A lot of rewriting for nothting if I'm wrong. Anyone *cough* Steve *cough*,
care to yea or nay my prognosis and treatment?

> What do i have to do to get 5?:)

Get the program to print for a start. I'll add more criteria as I come up with
them.

People in our group don't like to do the exact sort of stuff twice so
people tend to do something completely different with each character.

"Absolute Destiny Tango"

I found a fix for the script printing bug.

(script availiable at http://www.geocities.com/necro6hit or in the
files section of this yahoo group)

In Explorer, after the script has generated your combat chart, just
click "File>New>Window" which opens the same thing in a new window.
now though, it should print fine.

Im running IE5, does it work in other versions/browsers?

Palladium Books has (for quite awhile) published a book that completely
covers the martial arts universe.

I think I may pick up this book. It looks pretty adaptable to the Street
Fighter world. I'm just wondering if anyone else has used it for their
adventures?

For those that have never heard of it, you can find it here:
http://store.palladiumbooks.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=1001&Product_Code=525&Category_Code=N525

(I hate long URLs).

I used to be a big fan of the Palladium Fantasy Role Playing game, but
forgot all about this book.

Ninjas and Superspies, as well as it's Mystic China
supplement, are a good alternate view on the world of
martial arts, cybernetics, and oriental mysticism,
with lots of material which can be adapted to many a
Street Fighter campaign.

Ninjas and Superspies covers...
ALL Major Oriental (Japanese/Chinese/Korean) Martial
Arts, with around 25-30 styles to choose from, like
Sumo and Muay Thai, to more esoteric styles like Lee
Kwan Chu (sp?) (a pure pacifistic style), and multiple
forms of Kung Fu. It also covers cybernetic
enhancements from cyberdisguises to multiple optic
systems, Superspy vehicles (anyone want a Ferrari that
can also fly?), and Organizations (everything from
Dojo to World Spanning Secret Spy Networks...

Mystic China covers...
Even more forms of Kung Fu (including my fave, Chao
Ta, the "form" used in HK Action Films).
Chinese mysticism, from Feng Shui (Geomancy), to Chi
Magic, to Calligraphic Magic. Even Chinese Alchemy!
Monsters and demon-overlords from the Chinese Hells,
from the lowliest minions to the Yama Kings
themselves.

Both books have O.C.C.s (Occupational Character
Classes) which can easily be converted over to SF
Character Concepts, plus a a whole slew of other good
information. True, the format is different,
(Palladium games uses a level-based percentile system
mainly.) but any good GM with even an ounce of
imagination can convert it over to Street Fighter. In
my opinion, both books are welcome assets to the
Street Fighter system, even if they aren't FOR the
system.

Enjoy,

Hey all-

I'm creating a fighter using Ler Drit as his style.. the twist is
that he's not working for Shadoloo, and is one of the 'good guys'.
Basically, after his conditioning broke and he fled the compound,
Bison sent an assassin after him. This assassin was noted for using
energy attacks... in attempting to kill Cross (my character), he only
managed to knock him out and wipe his memories. After recovering,
Cross can remember only something from his dreams... a winged
skull... and how to fight. Of course, this has brought to mind
interesting thoughts on how arena fighters would react, as well as
Shadoloo spies. :)

Any thoughts on how to make Ler Drit 'honorable', aside from ditching
things like Mind Control, Psychic Rage, etc.?

Flying Punch is dishonorable - if you someone in the back with it.
Otherwise, just don't use the power for evil. Of course, the energy
attacks of Pscyho-Power may be inherently evil.
I'd start picking up a secondary martial art form, one with a different
philosophy of energy. Maybe in that way, you could use a different
"energy" for your maneuvers.

Tony

Someone on the list had a system that indicated Rose's "Soul Power" was the
counterpart to Psycho Power. It's possible you can modify his maneuvers to
resemble Rose's.
